While your new carpet is of whatever quality, it is still
subject to everyday wear and tear. Here are some tips to keep your
carpet looking its best. |
Sprouting
If loose ends or "sprouts" extend above the rest of the pile,
trim them off evenly with the pile surface. Never try to pull
them out. After clipping, smooth the area with your fingers.
Sharp edges on your vacuum cleaner, a child's toy, high heels,
or animal claws can cause this condition |

Pile Crushing
All carpet fibers will crush under heavy, stationary loads.
Crushing can be reduced by shifting furniture regularly. Crushed
areas can usually be restored by covering the area with a damp,
clean white cloth and then very carefully applying heat to the
cloth with an electric iron on a low setting. Remove the cloth and
restore the pile while it is still hot by brushing it lightly.
Keep traffic of the carpet until it is dry. |
Shading
After certain carpet styles have been subjected to traffic, you
may notice areas that appear lighter or darker than other areas.
Don't be alarmed! Shading is the result of the change in
direction of the pile due to pressure from the footsteps and
vacuuming. brushing the pile all in one direction may
temporarily correct shading; however, shading is part of the
carpet styling and should be expected in varying degrees. Do not
mistake shading for color fading. |

Note: No carpet is absolutely stain-proof.
Some carpets have stain-resistant treatments
to improve your ability to clean up stains,
not prevent stains.

Pile Distortion/Roll Crush
When carpet is manufactured, inspected, handled and shipped, it is
rolled and unrolled many times. A common problem called pile
distortion or roll crush can occur when this happens. It can be
corrected only when after the carpet is installed.
Follow these steps:
- Vacuum the carpet.
- Increase the relative humidity in the room to 50% or more.
- Allow several weeks in humid conditions and slightly longer
in low humidity conditions for the pile to recover.
