The secret to quick drying carpet after a cleaning is simple and easy.

Set your air conditioner to a temperature that keeps it running.

An air conditioner is basically a large dehumidifier so when it is running it will lower the humidity in your home causing the water in your carpet to evaporate quickly.

Once your carpet has been cleaned and the cleaning company is out the door crank that air down and cut the drying time in half. The faster your carpet drys the sooner you can get back to enjoying your carpet, also a wet carpet can attract dirt if walked on by dirty feet.

There are other thing that can be done to help speed up the drying time like putting fans on the carpet or opening windows that will create a cross breeze but nothing will help with the drying time more than the good old air conditioner, that is if it was properly cleaned by a professional carpet cleaner who properly extracts as much water out of the carpet as possible during the cleaning process.

“I called to schedule an appointment, and they gave me a price over the phone, when the technician got there they didn’t try to up sell me, or change the price, they did everything that I was told they would do, and the carpets came out looking great.”

“We want to thank you for your prompt and thorough service. We moved into a house that had dogs living in it prior to our purchase. I was very concerned about this since I am allergic to animals. The first night after you came and cleaned our carpets, I slept in our new home and had no problems whatsoever. The carpets looked and smelled brand new. We were really happy with the results and would not hesitate to recommend you!”

Keep it Green and keep it Clean with Wild West Carpet Care.

• Acid toilet bowl cleaners, acne medication, alkaline drain cleaners, chlorinated bleach, hair dyes, iodine, insecticides, mustard with turmeric, plant fertilizers and stains of this nature cannot be removed as they have permanently altered the carpet’s color. Call a professional. Most likely the only solution is to insert a piece of carpet remnant, or a piece taken from a closet, that can be put into the area where the spot is cut out.

• Remove as much of the spill as is possible by blotting with white paper towels or scraping with a dull knife. A wet vacuum is useful if a large quantity of liquid was spilled. If spot has dried, saturate the tufts in the affected area with tap water (do not overwet). Allow to remain for about 1 minute and blot. If the spot is being removed using water, continue until the spot is completely removed. Blot dry and apply the paper towels and brick. If it is not completely removed go to the next step.
• Apply a small quantity of detergent solution to the spot. (To make the detergent solution mix 1/4 teaspoon of a hand dish washing detergent which does not contain lanolin or bleach with 1 quart of water; examples of safe detergents are Dawn® and Joy®.) Use a blotting motion to work the detergent into the affected area. If spot is being removed continue applying detergent and blotting with a white paper towel until spot is removed.
• Rinse with tap water using a spray bottle, blot to remove excess moisture.
• Spray lightly with water, do not blot this time; apply pad of paper towels and brick and allow to dry.
• If there is still some stain on the carpet and blotting is not removing it, then moisten the tufts in the stained area with 3% hydrogen peroxide. Let stand for on (1) hour. Blot and repeat until carpet is stain free. Light will cause peroxide to change back to water so no rinsing is necessary. Apply pad of paper towels and weight down with brick.
