Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This stair runner is professionally finished to your chosen size. Ensure accurate measurements of your staircase before ordering. The runner is typically secured using double-sided carpet tape, adhesive strips, or stair runner clips. Apply the chosen method to the back of the runner or directly to the stairs, ensuring a firm and even application to prevent movement.
Compatibility:
This runner is designed for standard indoor staircases. The jute hessian backing provides a stable base but should be kept dry. It is compatible with most stair materials, including wood, laminate, and carpeted stairs (if laying over existing carpet).
Care:
- Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum regularly using a standard vacuum cleaner. Avoid using a vacuum with a rotating beater bar on high pile settings, as this can cause damage. A suction-only setting is recommended.
- Spot Cleaning: For spills, blot the affected area immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild detergent mixed with water and a damp cloth. Always test cleaning solutions in an inconspicuous area first.
- Bleach Cleaning: For stubborn stains, diluted household bleach can be used. Apply sparingly with a damp cloth and rinse thoroughly with clean water afterward. Ensure good ventilation when using bleach.
- General Maintenance: Rotate the runner periodically if possible to ensure even wear. Keep the area around the runner clean to prevent dirt buildup.
