How to Clean a Carpet at Home

A clean carpet starts with thorough dry vacuuming and finishes with deep extraction using a floor tool — not a damp cloth or a household spray. In Vilnius you can rent a Kärcher Puzzi 10/1 from 15 €/day or book a cleaning service. Tel. 062 110 999.

What is the problem?

Surface vacuuming and a damp cloth don't reach soil embedded deep in the pile — the carpet looks cleaner for a day, then stains and odour come back.

The solution

Dry vacuum first, then extract with the floor tool and dry properly — that gives a lasting result, not just a visual one.

How does it work?

  1. Vacuum the whole carpet dry, especially traffic lanes and corners along the walls.
  2. Mark any stains and note the most worn areas.
  3. Prepare the Puzzi solution to the correct dose — chemistry 1 €/pc.
  4. Clean with the floor tool in straight, overlapping lanes.
  5. Recover the solution immediately — don't leave the carpet wetter than necessary.
  6. Ventilate the room or run a fan until the carpet is fully dry.

Why Puzzis.lt?

How Extraction With the Floor Tool Works

The Kärcher Puzzi 10/1 sprays solution into the carpet pile and immediately recovers it along with the dissolved soil. The floor tool is built for carpets specifically — it doesn't over-wet the pile and leaves it only slightly damp.

The key is not moving the tool too fast. A slow, even pass lets the suction keep up with the solution, so the carpet doesn't end up soaked and dries faster.

What to Avoid

Don't pour on too much solution and don't substitute dish soap for dosed chemistry — foam stays in the pile and later attracts dust.

Don't walk on a wet carpet and don't cover it with plastic 'to dry faster' — that just traps moisture underneath.

Frequently asked questions

How long does cleaning a carpet at home take?

For an average room with the Puzzi 10/1, expect 30–60 minutes of cleaning plus 8–24 hours of drying.

Do I need special chemistry?

Yes, dosed Puzzi chemistry (1 €/pc) rinses out more easily than household detergents and leaves no sticky residue.

Where can I pick up the Puzzi 10/1?

Šumsko g. 308, Vilnius. Delivery is available from 12 €; questions — 062 110 999.

When should I choose the service instead of renting?

When the carpet is large, valuable, or you simply don't have the time — the cleaning service is more convenient then.

What if the stain did not come out?

If the stain remains after the first pass — a second chemistry portion is free during the same rental (at pickup / return).

How soon is the deposit refunded?

The same day you return the equipment undamaged (cash or transfer — as you paid).
