Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Unroll the rug completely and lay it flat in your desired location. Allow it to rest for 24-48 hours to help any creases or folds from packaging disappear. Ensure the anti-slip backing is in direct contact with the floor surface for maximum effectiveness.
Compatibility:
This rug is compatible with most floor types, including hardwood, laminate, tile, and low-pile carpets, thanks to its anti-slip backing. It is suitable for use with underfloor heating, provided the heating system is within manufacturer safety guidelines. It is not recommended for use on high-pile carpets where the anti-slip backing may not achieve sufficient grip.
Care:
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum the rug regularly (at least once a week) using a vacuum cleaner without a beater bar or with the beater bar set to its highest setting to avoid damaging the fibres.
- Spot Cleaning: For minor spills, blot the affected area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For more persistent stains, use a mild detergent diluted with water and a soft brush. Always test cleaning solutions on an inconspicuous area first. Blot from the outside of the stain inwards.
- Deep Cleaning: For a more thorough clean, professional dry cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing or excessively soaking the rug, as this can damage the backing and fibres.
- Fibre Care: After cleaning, gently brush the fibres with a soft brush or comb to restore their fluffy appearance. Allow the rug to air dry completely before stepping on it.
