Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup
- Unpack: Carefully unroll your Livabliss AMBRE rug in the desired location.
- Flattening: It may take a day or two for the rug to fully flatten. You can gently place heavy objects on the corners to speed up the process.
- Rug Pad Recommendation: For optimal safety and to prevent slippage, it is highly recommended to use a non-slip rug pad underneath. This also helps protect your flooring and extends the life of your rug.
Compatibility
- Underfloor Heating: This rug is fully suitable for use with underfloor heating systems, allowing you to enjoy warmth and comfort.
- Robot Hoovers: The pile height and material are compatible with robot hoovers, making automated cleaning convenient.
- Indoor Use: Designed exclusively for indoor environments.
Care Instructions
To ensure your Livabliss AMBRE rug remains beautiful and functional for years, follow these care guidelines:
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly to remove dirt and dust. This prevents particles from settling deep into the fibers, which can cause premature wear. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment or a beater bar that can be adjusted for pile height, or turn off the beater bar if not adjustable.
- Spot Cleaning: For small stains, immediately blot the area with a clean, damp cloth. Use a mild detergent or carpet cleaner for more stubborn spots. *Avoid rubbing vigorously*, as this can spread the stain.
- Loose Threads: If you notice any loose threads, do not pull them. Instead, carefully cut them flush with the rug's surface using a pair of sharp scissors. Pulling threads can damage the rug's weaving.
- Hand Washable: For a deeper clean, the rug is hand washable. For larger sizes (e.g., 160 x 213 cm), this may require a large tub or professional cleaning service. Ensure thorough drying to prevent mildew.
- Professional Cleaning: Consider professional rug cleaning periodically for a comprehensive refresh.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the polyester fibers and alter the rug's color.
