Yes, you should always vacuum thoroughly before using a Rug Doctor. This essential step removes loose surface debris, pet hair, and dust, preventing them from mixing with the water to create mud or clogging the machine's jets and extraction nozzles.
Sprinkling baking soda on your carpet before vacuuming is a great way to absorb odors and freshen things up. Just let it sit for about 15 to 30 minutes, then vacuum thoroughly.
You can use Dawn dish soap in a carpet cleaner, but use only a tiny amount (no more than 1/2 a teaspoon to a full teaspoon per gallon of water). Because Dawn is highly concentrated, using too much creates excess foam that can damage your machine’s motor or leave a sticky residue behind that attracts future dirt.
When a carpet looks dirtier after shampooing, it is usually because leftover soap is attracting fresh dirt, water is pulling hidden dirt from the backing up to the surface (wicking), or the carpet fibers have sustained permanent wear and tear.
Your carpet smells after using a Rug Doctor primarily because it was over-wet. Excess water soaks into the padding, creating a damp, dark breeding ground for bacteria, mildew, or mold. Additionally, the moisture can reactivate old pet urine crystals deep in the fibers, causing a stronger, sour odor.
Open windows – air flow can help to improve drying times and opening windows can help, unless it is very humid outside. Use floor fans – running floor fans in areas with damp carpet will help to move the humid air created by evaporation out of the space, and dry the carpet more quickly.
Deep Clean Carpet
Make two “wet” passes pressing the trigger to release solution, then release the trigger and make two additional drying passes over the same area. Repeat until the solution being pulled up looks clean. Continue this process around your room, overlapping your clean areas by a few inches.
