Carpet Understanding a few simple basics about carpet construction will help you make the right choice for your lifestyle and budget. Carpets are made from many fibres including synthetic (acrylic, nylon polyester, viscose rayon) and natural (wool, silk and cotton). Avoid using carpet where there is moisture, for example, kitchens, bathrooms and basements. Advantages of carpet Warm and soft on the feet. Absorbs sound. Wide choice of colours. Easy to install. Care and maintenance tips Have the carpet cleaned professionally to improve appearance. The cleaning process should extract as much water as quickly as possible, enabling the carpet to be totally dry in a few hours. Vacuum weekly with a good quality vacuum using a HEPA filter, or use a central vacuum system with an outside discharge. Note: A HEPA filter is a high efficiency particulate air filter.
