Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unroll the rug completely and lay it flat in its desired location. Allow it to settle for 24-48 hours to smooth out any creases from packaging. Ensure the floor beneath is clean and dry before placing the rug to maximize the effectiveness of the non-slip backing.
Compatibility:
This rug is compatible with most standard flooring types, including hardwood, tile, laminate, and low-pile carpet. The non-slip backing is designed to grip most surfaces. It is generally safe for use with underfloor heating, but always check the specific recommendations for your heating system.
Care:
- Regular Vacuuming: Use a vacuum cleaner with suction only (no beater bar) to remove surface dirt and dust. Vacuum in the direction of the pile.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a damp cloth. Avoid over-wetting the rug.
- Deeper Cleaning: Hand wash or use a carpet cleaning machine on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Ensure thorough rinsing.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Hang the rug to air dry completely, or lay it flat in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Shake the rug outdoors periodically to refresh the fibers.
