Maintenance
Cleaning guidelines for rugs vary, but there are certain things you can do to maintain your rug to help it look its best and last for years to come.
Generally speaking, medium- to high-pile rugs should be thoroughly cleaned once a year to remove dust, hair, and allergens. Vacuuming isn’t enough. You'll either have to send the rug out or invest in a carpet cleaner, taking the rug's individual cleaning guidelines into account.
Low-pile and flatweave rugs should be taken outside periodically to be shaken out.
Rugs made of natural fibers, such as jute and sisal, generally don’t show minor dirt and stains as much as other fibers.
Have you thought of layering your rugs?
