How to clean an area rug with a carpet cleaner?

  1. Check the label and fibre (wool, jute, synthetics, etc.). Some delicate fibres need professional cleaning.
  2. Vacuum both sides to remove grit. Treat spots with a fibre-safe stain remover.
  3. Spot test your carpet cleaner on an inconspicuous corner; watch for colour bleed or texture change.
  4. Use a low-moisture setting and a neutral cleaner. Work with the pile, avoiding over-wetting—especially on wool or viscose blends.
  5. Rinse lightly if your machine allows, then dry thoroughly: lift the rug on a rack, circulate air and avoid direct, harsh heat.
  6. Brush or vacuum to restore the pile once fully dry. When in doubt, choose a professional rug cleaner.

How big should a rug be under a couch?

  • Minimum rule: place the front legs of the sofa on the rug to anchor the seating area.
  • Best fit for most living rooms: 8' x 10' for a standard sofa; 9' x 12' for larger rooms or sectionals.
  • Small spaces: 6' x 9' keeps the front legs on the rug and leaves walking room.
  • Large, open plans: consider 10' x 14', 12' x 15' or 12' x 18' to unify all seating pieces.
  • Runners & layering: use 2'6" x 8' or 3' x 12' runners for hallways, and layer smaller rugs over large neutrals for interest.
