Standard Backpack vacuuming – Poor Carpet Care

Tired of repeatedly pushing and pulling your backpack ‘suction only’ floor tool over stubborn dirt, lint or hair?

Suction only floor tools (also known as gulper tools or combination floor heads) are typically supplied as standard with backpack vacuums. They are generally unable to deep clean carpets and effectively remove fibre damaging debris, pesky lint and hair from the surface.

Indoor Air Quality Matters

Why indoor air quality matters to your health.

You might not think about it often, but the air you breathe indoors can be far more polluted than the air outdoors. Poor indoor air quality can lead to a host of problems, including respiratory disorders, allergy flare-ups, headaches, fatigue, and mental health issues. The results of poor indoor air quality is often referred to as “Sick Building Syndrome”. 

Using a SEBO vacuum cleaner at work or home can contribute to positive Building Biology by removing harmful allergens (dust mites, mould, pets and pet dander) and improving indoor air quality (IAQ) not to mention also keep the soft floor furnishing looking great for many years to come.

How do SEBO Vacuums help Indoor Air Quality

Not only do our vacuum cleaners clean the floor but they also enhance the air. 

Vacuums equipped with high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filtration trap the dirt you can’t see, rather than sending allergens back into the air.

LONG TERM ASSET MAINTENANCE DEEP CLEAN VALUE

What do you know about upright vacuum cleaners?

It’s interesting to hear about the changing preferences in the Australian cleaning industry where ‘quality productivity’ and ‘presentation’ are becoming important factors rather than the traditional benchmark of ‘speed’ or ‘square metres per hour’.

Sometimes an overemphasis on productivity and speed can come at a cost of asset deterioration in the long term. In the cleaning industry, this might mean that certain cleaning methods or equipment that prioritise productivity over quality may actually cause more harm to the property in the long run, leading to increased maintenance and repair costs for the property owners.

Flooring is an investment and using the correct equipment to maintain the asset is vital.

Floor care guides play a crucial role in helping property owners and cleaning professionals understand how to properly clean and maintain different types of flooring materials. These guides provide information on recommended cleaning methods, equipment, and chemicals, as well as tips on how to prevent damage and maintain the appearance of the flooring over time.

By regularly updating their floor care guides, manufacturers can ensure that the information they provide is relevant and accurate, and that it reflects best practices in the cleaning industry. This can help property owners and cleaning professionals make informed decisions about how to care for their flooring, leading to better outcomes for the flooring’s appearance and longevity.

Carpet Manufacturers recommend Upright Vacuums

Carpet manufacturers often recommend using an upright vacuum cleaner for commercial carpet/soft floor care for several reasons.

Firstly, upright vacuum cleaners are generally more powerful than other types of vacuum cleaners, such as backpack, barrel or stick vacuums. This means they are better able to remove dirt and debris from deep within the carpet fibres, which can help to extend the life of the carpet and prevent the build-up of dirt and allergens.

Secondly, upright vacuums are often equipped with an electric rotating brush, which can help to dislodge dirt and debris from the carpet fibres, making it easier to pick up with the vacuum.

Thirdly, upright vacuums are typically more durable than other types of vacuum cleaners, making them well-suited to the demands and rigors of commercial cleaning.

Finally, using the recommended type of vacuum cleaner is often necessary to maintain the warranty on the carpet. Carpet manufacturers may specify the type of vacuum cleaner e.g. upright, that should be used to ensure that the carpet is cared for properly and in accordance with their guidelines.

Upright vacuum cleaners

Overall, using an upright vacuum cleaner can help to ensure that commercial carpets are cleaned effectively and efficiently, and that they are cared for in a way that extends their life-span and maintains their appearance.

SEBO Commercial Upright Vacuum Cleaners and Electric Powerbrushes are recommended by Carpet and Soft Floor Manufacturers for the correct care of their soft floor products because they have features and benefits which can suit certain pile styles and fibres as well as being ergonomic and user friendly.

When formulating a carpet maintenance plan for a facility it is important to refer to the carpet manufacturer’s warranty statements as well as the Australian and New Zealand standard AS/NZS 3733 – Textile floor coverings – Cleaning maintenance of residential and commercial carpeting.
