Helpful Hints: Drying Carpet and Returning Furniture

Clean on a day with low humidity to help carpets dry faster.

While Cleaning

• Turn on any available ceiling fans and make sure the room is well ventilated to help the airstream in your home.
• Additional dry strokes will aid in faster drying of carpet. When using Express Clean Mode the directions need to be followed exactly.

After Cleaning

• Use a portable fan directed towards the surface of the carpet and/or a dehumidifi er to aid in drying carpet.
• Adjust your heat up a few degrees in winter and use your air conditioning for dryer air in the summer.
• On warm dry days, simply opening the windows can be an eco-friendly option to assist in drying carpet.
• When the carpet feels dry to the touch, return furniture that was removed. To be sure to avoid staining, place wax paper or aluminum foil under the legs. Wait at least another three hours before removing wax paper or foil.
