    It's best to clean the carpets when the weather isn't too warm or too cool. After cleaning, open the windows and turn up the heat to assist the drying process. I usually use whatever carpet shampoo is available, but I use less than recommended. Go over the carpet with the shampoo water, then clean it again with either clear water or a little vinegar and water. This helps prevent shampoo build up and also leaves the carpet softer.

  • Anytime! I have mine cleaned professonally every 3 months, but I have a lot of pets. You may not to do as often. I like to schedule on warm days so all the doors and windows can be open so that it dries faster. Fans work too.

    We try to do ours twice a year, in the spring and the fall. It is best to pick a sunny day to do this, as it will help the carpets to dry quicker than if you have a rainy or snowy day.

    I highly suggest doing it in the summer time, right after the wet spring. :)
