Floor Care - Frequently Asked Questions

How do you use a steam mop?

Using a steam mop is simple! Just fill the water tank, allow the mop to heat up, and gently glide it across your hard floors to lift dirt with steam. Best practice is to always vacuum first so the mop can breaking down any sticky stains rather than cleaning up dirt.

What type of vacuum cleaner has the strongest suction power?

Typically, upright vacuums and barrel vacuums generally offer the strongest suction, especially models designed for deep carpet cleaning. You can look for suction indicators within the product description to help to understand what section will work best for your home.

How can you tell if a vacuum has a powerful suction?

You can check the suction strength of your vacuum cleaner by looking for two specific suction indicators including;
Air Watts (AW): Higher air watts reflect stronger and more efficient suction with premium vacuums ranging from 150 to 250 AW.
Pascal (Pa): A higher pascal rating reflects stronger suction power, with premium models ranging from 2000 Pa to 5000 Pa.

What is the best vacuum for pet hair?

If you’re looking for a vacuum that is best for stubborn pet hair, look for vacuums with tangle-free brush rolls, high suction, and HEPA filtration. Stick vacuums with motorised heads and robot vacuums are useful for daily upkeep while barrel vacuums with pet attachments is the best option for deeper cleans to help keep fur and allergens under control.

Are steam mops safe for timber floors?

Steam mops are generally safe on sealed timber floors but should be avoided on any unsealed or waxed timber. Always check manufacturer recommendations and use a low steam setting.

How to Choose the Best Floor Cleaner Appliances

Finding the best floor cleaner for your home is all about understanding the type of appliances that suit your needs and lifestyle. This means asking yourself questions to truly understand what would work best for you. A few key things to consider when choosing a floor cleaning appliance include:

Flooring type

With every type of flooring requiring something different, it’s important to find an appliance that meets the needs of all your flooring surfaces. Start by identifying your primary surfaces to determine what type of flooring is most prominent in your household. Think carpet, tiles, timber, laminate or hybrid flooring.

Consider your lifestyle

Outside of surfaces, your lifestyle will heavily impact the right kind of floor care appliances for you. If you have young children or pets, choosing floor cleaning appliances with stronger suction or deep cleaning capabilities helps you to stay on top of the everyday spills, build-up of fur and messy crumbs that come with busy households. It’s also worth considering when you’ll be able to fit in your floor cleaning routine. For those with an on-the-go lifestyle, choosing convenient floor cleaning devices like robot vacuums or cordless vacuum models helps to save time so you can focus more on the things you love.

How often do you clean?

It’s also important to consider what your cleaning schedule will like. Are you after quick daily maintenance for an instant home refresh or a monthly deep clean that gets into every nook and cranny of the house. This will reflect whether you need a convenient appliance for quick touch ups or a heavy-duty floor cleaner to revitalise your floors.
