How Often Should Oriental Rugs Be Cleaned?

Oriental rugs may be considered an investment as they are made of 100% natural fibers, such as sheep’s wool, camel hair, pure silk, and other durable natural fibers to enhance the longevity of oriental rugs. It is important that your rugs be cleaned, but more importantly, you should be aware that your oriental rugs need cleaning and disinfecting services every 1 to 3 years. Like all things, there is a caveat and nuance that affects how often your rugs need to be cleaned. The more traffic and stains your rugs and carpets get, the more often cleaning will be needed. 

Our Oriental and area rug cleaning process is remarkably effective. First, your Oriental or area rug is thoroughly washed and rinsed on both sides. Then it is disinfected with a CDC-approved product that effectively kills both bacteria and viruses. Finally, it is fluff dried and returned to you sparkling clean and smelling fresh.

How Can You Tell if A Rug is Washable?

These days, washable rugs are becoming more and more popular, but where the mistake lies is when the rugs are not washed in the way the manufacturer instructed. You can tell a rug is washable when the material made with it is cotton, polyester, olefin/polypropylene, sheep’s wool, camel’s hair, or pure silk. The mistake that is often made is when area rugs are thrown into the washing machine, the color bleeds out a bit, and then the same rug is either thrown in the dryer and shrinks a bit, or is hung to dry outside and appears duller in color. If you want to preserve the life of your rug, whether it is oriental rugs or area rug, you want to always be in the know of how it should be washed. Typically the labels attached to the rug will tell you how washable the rug is. If your tag is damaged or the words have faded, there are other ways to tell if the rug is washable or not. Other signs that help you determine if your rug is washable are:

  • Doing a color test. When you use a house cleaner against a spot on your rug check to see if the solution causes the color to bleed. This test will tell you how fast or slow the color bleeds, if it bleeds fast, your rug is washable, however, needs to be handled with delicate care. In such a case, it is not advisable to handle this kind of rug on your own.
  • Burning a small piece of the rug fabric. If it burns like hair, it is 100% natural fiber and needs professional oriental rug or oriental area rug cleaning and disinfecting services. If it burns like plastic or has a plastic-like smell when you burn the piece, it is a sign that your rug is washable
  • If the rug is Olefin or Polypropylene, it is washable. If you decide to wash it on your own, you might run the risk of having a less smooth feel. Remember, these kinds of rugs are not made with natural fibers, so you want to visit or contact an experienced area rug and oriental rug cleaning and disinfecting company serving the Blackwood.
