At Hydro Clean, we are dedicated to getting the job right the first time. Our highly experienced and certified technicians have years of experience cleaning carpets. Through thousands of satisfied customers, we have proudly earned the title of the best carpet cleaning company in Colorado Springs. We understand the importance of having a clean carpet, and how detrimental an odorous carpet can become to the comfort of your home when not addressed.
If you have carpet within your home, it’s natural to want to preserve it’s clean smell, but sadly, that doesn’t stop life from happening. Whether you have pets, children, or a clumsy roommate, smells are bound to attempt to infiltrate your carpet. Luckily, there are some ways to prevent your carpet from taking on an unpleasant smell. Our expert team is here to explain some of our favorite tips and tricks to keeping your carpet smelling clean.
While this may not be something you think of, keeping your vacuum clean is essential to not letting smells seep into your carpet. Without realizing it, your vacuum could be doing the opposite of its purpose when used on your carpet. Your vacuum cleaner could be harboring odorous materials such as pet dander, food particles, and dust. By keeping your vacuum canister clean, you will avoid any of these pungent smells from getting into your carpet. It is recommended to deep clean your vacuum at least once a month, but it wouldn’t hurt to do it more frequently.
This popular solution to getting odors out of carpets has become a staple in many households. By simply sprinkling baking soda onto your carpets and then spraying vinegar on top of it, you can create a natural chemical reaction that will lift deeply saturated smells. While there is no arguing that this trick oftentimes does work, it sometimes has unintended consequences. Baking soda is made up of extremely small particles that easily sift down through your carpet and into the pad underneath. Even an extremely powerful vacuum won’t be able to remove it once it has transferred through the carpet fibers. This means that the baking soda used to clean carpets will actually end up staying in the carpet pad until they are removed. It is advised to avoid using baking soda on carpets, and instead opt for a professional cleaning solution.
Carpets work as a natural filtration system in your home, which means that it absorbs the particles that float in the air. If there is an odorous smell in your home, you may notice the smell lingering in your carpet. This can be a good thing when your home is filled with lovely scents from things like baking or a lit candle, but it can quickly turn bad if a bad odor infiltrates your home. Whether it’s a leaking sewage pipe or a pet accident, there are some smells that you don’t want sticking around. That is why having good ventilation in the carpeted areas in your home is important. If an unpleasant smell happens, simply open the windows in your home to create a cross-breeze that will quickly dispose of the smell before it has a chance to settle into your carpet.
In our busy lives, it can be easy to delay cleaning a spill up until we have more time. However, every moment a spill sits on carpet, the longer it has to seep into the carpet's threads and down into the pad underneath. The more saturated carpets become with the spilled substance, the harder it will be to get rid of it. A common problem many homeowners face is when they completely remove a stain on their carpet, but the smell remains. This is because food and drink particles have the ability to break down into such small particles that they are impossible to remove without professional cleaning equipment.
Renting a carpet cleaner seems like a great solution to keeping your carpets clean and smell-less. However, these well-used machines often cause far more damage than good. Rentable carpet cleaners have most likely been used in hundreds of other homes to pick up a variety of unknown substances. When not properly cleaned or maintained, those substances will remain trapped within the carpet cleaners. That means that when you use a rented carpet cleaner on your carpet, you will unintentionally be putting all of the unknown substances and smells into your own carpet.
The best way to ensure a clean and odor-free carpet is to hire a professional carpet cleaner. Carpet cleaning professionals use expensive and powerful cleaning equipment that is specially designed to lift smells and dirt from your carpets. Store-bought carpet cleaners don’t have the same suction ability as professional-grade equipment, which will result in smells remaining in your carpet. By getting your carpets professionally cleaned, they will be protected from any bad smells and leave you with fresh, clean floors.

One way Hydro Clean has been delivering high-quality services to homes throughout Colorado Springs is through professional area rug cleaning. Area rugs are a great way to add decoration to your home while protecting your floors underneath. However, over years of use, area rugs can become overrun with dirt and allergens that are difficult to remove with household cleaning tools. Furthermore, area rugs are prone to be contaminated with pet urine, which can lead to unpleasant odors lingering in your home. Our knowledgeable team has created a guide on everything you need to know about area rug cleaning to teach you about the benefits of having your rugs professionally cleaned.
Having your area rugs professionally cleaned is a great way to maximize the cleanliness of your home. While regular vacuuming helps with removing dirt and allergens that have settled into your rug, the smaller particles will work their way into the fibers of the rug, making them nearly impossible to remove. Luckily, professional carpet cleaners utilize high-powered equipment that is specially designed to thoroughly clean area rugs and remove all contaminants. Here is a glimpse into the process behind professional area rug cleaning:
The journey to a clean area rug begins when a certified carpet cleaning technician comes to your home to pick up the rug. Area rug cleaning is performed in a building that can house the large equipment needed to do a thorough cleaning.
Next, a pretreatment inspection will be done to determine a cleaning procedure that will yield optimal results. Stains, tears, and the cleanliness of the rug are all taken into consideration when developing a cleaning plan.
Once a cleaning plan has been determined, the cleaning process can begin. The first step in professionally cleaning an area rug is to beat the rug. This method will extract all loose dirt and allergens from the rug through a series of vigorous shaking that is done by a large machine.
After all loose debris is removed, the area rug will be thoroughly vacuumed by a cleaning technician. While this may seem unnecessary since vacuuming can easily be done at home, professional rug cleaners utilize commercial-grade vacuums that have a lot more suction power.
A dye lock will be added to the rug before any further cleaning is done to ensure the color and appearance are preserved. Afterward, a pretreatment will be added to the rug as a cleaning agent. The rug will soak in the pretreatment for quite some time to ensure they take full effect.
After your area rug is done soaking in the pretreatment, the washing will begin. A trained technician will apply a mixture of cleaning chemicals and water directly onto the rug until it is saturated. They will then use a rotating brush specially designed to work the cleaner deep into the rug's fibers to lift any remaining dirt, allergens and pet urine. After the rug has been thoroughly scrubbed, the technician will use a squeegee to remove the remaining water and pretreatment from the rug, along with the contaminants that were lifted from the carpet fibers. This process will be repeated until the rug is completely clean.
Once all allergens, dirt, and other contaminants have been removed from your area rug, it will be placed into a large centrifuge to dry. The centrifuge will spin the rug and remove any remaining water without causing any damage. The rug will then be removed and placed on a large drying rack to finish drying.
Before your rug is safely returned to your home, a final posttreatment inspection will be performed. This ensures the rug has been thoroughly cleaned and all stains have been removed.
Finally, your freshly cleaned area rug will then be returned to your home. A technician will walk you through the cleaning process that was performed on your rug and reveal the results. If you are satisfied with the new, clean appearance of your rug, it will be placed back where it belongs.
