6 Ways To Dry Carpets Faster After Cleaning
Carpet cleanings are important to expand the life of the carpet and keep your home healthy, but only if your carpets dry quickly after. Soaked carpets can create bigger problems, such as mold and allergens than you might expect after it has just been cleaned. To make sure that your family stays healthy, and your carpets stay clean, here are some tips to help dry your carpet after cleaning.
KEEP YOUR FURNITURE OFF
In most cases, you probably already have your furniture pulled off your carpets while it was being cleaned. To help your carpets dry faster, leave your furniture off the carpets until your carpets are dry. Furniture can create small spaces, which is more difficult for air to flow through to pick up the carpet’s moisture. Leave the carpeted area free of any furniture to ensure a quick dry and no mold.
TURN ON FANS
Turning on your ceiling, standing, and floor fans help circulate the air in your home to pick up the moisture in your carpets. As the best way to dry your carpets faster, most carpet cleaners will recommend this after cleaning.
OPEN THE WINDOWS
Similar to turning on fans, air from your windows can contribute to the air circulation in your home. However, be sure to check the weather outside before opening the windows. High humidity levels means that there is more moisture in the air, which will not be able to pick up the moisture in your carpets. On days with high humidity, turn on your air conditioner or central HVAC system’s fan to circulate drier air throughout your home. If you decide to turn on your air conditioner, make sure to keep the fans on longer than you think. It may become more difficult to tell if your carpet is still wet or cold.
TURN ON DEHUMIDIFIERS
Dehumidifiers take the moisture out of the air by converting it into water and release the dry air back into your home. Paired with fans, it can work quickly to get your carpets dry. Be sure to check back on the dehumidifier often to empty out the water that it collects and keep drying your carpets.
ASK FOR A DRYER
Most carpet cleaners will have a dryer for your carpets after they are done cleaning. They will be happy to help dry your carpets and give you advice about how your carpet can be dried with your own dryer or vacuum. Always be sure to ask your carpet cleaner about vacuuming your carpets with your vacuum cleaner, as some cannot take in moisture.
