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.
