Renting is super expensive. I'd look at buying one on the 100-200 range. Pays for itself rather quickly and you'll have a cleaner home. You'll use it a few times per year instead of maybe once a year if you rent.
You can be assured that Rug Doctor has up to twice the power of other available carpet cleaning machines and is designed to deep-clean and extract in one cleaning pass. Drying time is usually around two hours, dependent on weather and carpet thickness. When drying, open windows and doors or turn on air conditioning.
Rug Doctor machines use an extremely powerful 1.9hp vacuum motor and excel at removing excess moisture from carpets. We recommend you only go over the same area once when carpet cleaning to avoid over saturating your carpets.
One of the most common causes of a smelly carpet after cleaning is excess moisture. Carpet cleaning machines use water and cleaning solutions to lift dirt and stains. If the carpet remains too wet after cleaning, it can create a damp environment ideal for mold and mildew growth, leading to musty odors.
Prepare Your Carpet For Deep Cleaning
Before using the carpet cleaner rental machine, vacuum the carpeted area thoroughly. If there are any old or dark carpet stains, spray them with a pretreat formula for extra cleaning power.
A: red is the commercial rental version and blue is the consumer version, same unit!
Fill a bucket with nine litres of hot tap water. Do not use water hot enough to burn or scald the skin. Pour 150ml of Rug Doctor Carpet Detergent directly into the red bottom base tank of your machine. For Wide Track machines, use 225ml of detergent.
Naturally, all carpet cleaners will leave some moisture, which will dry out in the hours following the cleaning process. However, if the carpet remains wet long after cleaning, it's because the final step of that process was insufficient.
Rental machines just don't have the vacuum extraction power to recover the dirty water and cleaning solutions. Use of a weaker rental machine leads to over-wetting, incomplete soil removal, shampoo residues, and longer drying times (often a whole day or two).
On average, carpet cleaning costs $0.25 to $0.50 per square foot. Many cleaners have a minimum square footage charge, or they charge a flat $100 to $150+ minimum fee for small jobs under a certain square footage.
Cleaning solutions are not included in the rental pricing. You will need an upright carpet solution to add to the rental cleaner.
Select locations offer 48-hour carpet cleaner rental for $49.99. Please note that availability of machines, 48 hour rental and pricing can vary by retail location. Rug Doctor® Pro Deep carpet cleaners are in Walmart stores across the country.
It takes around two to four hours for carpets to dry after a Rug Doctor clean. However, this depends on ventilation to the room, whether the room is unheated and the outside temperature. The machine vacuums up about 80% of the water it dispenses on to the carpet.
A carpet shampooer will treat the surface of your carpet. A carpet steam cleaner uses heat to extract the dirt from the fibers. Decide how deep of a clean you require when choosing between shampoo carpet cleaning vs. steam cleaning.

Abrasive cleaners can damage the carpet fibers and leave a bare spot where the stain used to be. The same goes for heavy-duty scrubbing brushes. If you must scrub your carpet, use a mild cleaner and a soft bristle brush to prevent damage.
Q: Would these ready-to-use formulas of Pine-Sol® be effective at removing grease stains from wall-to-wall carpet? A: We do not recommend using the products on carpet; they could possibly fade or otherwise damage some types of fabric used for carpeting.
5. For use with a Rug Doctor Wide Track, use 225ml of Carpet Detergent. The Carpet Detergent is formulated with SpotBlok®, which works to keep your carpets looking clean and fresh for longer. Gentle but powerful, the Oxy Power Fabric Cleaner is the answer to your upholstery and fabric cleaning worries.

The cost to rent a carpet cleaner depends on how long you're hiring the unit. The Rug Doctor machine is available for hire for 4, 8, or 24 hours.
Carpets typically take between 2 to 6 hours to dry after cleaning with a Rug Doctor. Several factors, such as room temperature, humidity levels, and carpet material, affect this time. Proper ventilation and keeping the windows open can significantly speed up the process.
All carpets should be vacuumed prior to being cleaned. Most professional carpet cleaning companies ask that you vacuum before they come to clean, while some may do it for you, after they arrive.
Once solution stops flowing through the clear dome into the white tank it is time to refill your red tank. 6. Turn off the machine, remove the white recovery tank and empty into a toilet or outside.
