If you are looking to clean your carpet or area rugs in your home then there are two types of machine available for rental at the companies who specialize in these things. Dry foam carpet shampoo machines are the most popular type of do-it-yourself cleaning system, as they do no excessively moisten the fibers and keep your carpet and rugs in the best condition long term. There are some tips you should remember if you decide to rent one of these machines to do the job yourself.
First, find out from the rental place how old the machines they are offering for rent actually are. Older machines may have lost a substantial amount of their suction capability as they have aged. It is important for the machine to have enough suction available to remove the majority of the dry foam cleaner.
Second, thoroughly inspect the carpet machine you choose to rent to make sure all hoses are intact. Check the interior of the machine to make sure the collection tank is clean and free of cracks and leaks. Check the gaskets that seal the collection and shampoo tanks to make sure they are intact and at the same time be sure to check the brushes and bottom of the machine to make sure it is clean.
Third, make sure the rental place will provide you with written instructions regarding the use of the dry foam carpet shampoo machine you choose. Also, be sure to read all the rental agreement carefully, and be sure to ask questions regarding anything you don't fully understand. If the person waiting on you does not have an answer to your question, make sure they find someone to answer your question before you sign the rental contract.
Finally, check with the rental company regarding their policy for the return of the machine. Be sure to determine if there is an additional charge should they have to return a defective machine and whether the rental company will give a time extension should the first machine fail to perform.
