I want to clean my carpet as it has been few years, what will be the best solution to clean it?

Using a carpet cleaner machine with liquid to wash the carpets or buy carpet cleaner powder and use vacuum cleaner to clean it up?

P.S - Is there a 2in1 of Vacuum cleaner and Carpet cleaner?

Lots of options available, wet carpet cleaners are better than dry, see VAX and Bissell in the argos catalogue..alternative would be to hire one for a day, mant supermarkets/dry cleaners offer this service.

Edit....Manners...

I am new to this, why is Wet better than Dry? and using a Carpet cleaner machine is better than using Carpet cleaner powder and then clean it up with Vacuum cleaner?

Also is there a 2in1 Vacuum cleaner and Carpet cleaner?

Quite simply any "ingrained" dirt can be lifted with a wet system, a dry vacuum can only lift dry particles..

Yes. If your in the UK, it might be cheaper to hire one for the day than buy one - since they havent been cleaned for a few years you might only do it occasionally. A lot of the major superstores have carpet cleaners for rent.



Yes. See suggestions above that have already been given

I will see if I can hire a Carpet cleaner and also what's the word I need to use to search for Vacuum cleaner and Carpet cleaner 2in1?

Just Google:

Morrrisons, among others, hire out Rug Doctor machines
the company I work for has 6 of these machines & they are probably out most weekends, our rates are £35/week (£17.50 first day) & Carpet Fresh shampoo @ £12.75 for 5 litres, prices plus VAT

I will ask a question first ... is there a powder that can be used to "clean" carpets? Therefore you can then vacuum it using a normal vacuum machine.

You have dry vacuums (upright or barrel) and "wet and dry" vacuums (normally in barrel form) and carpet washers/shampooers in ... blah blah blah.

A carpet washer/cleaner/shampooer is a wet vacuum, it "may" also be a dry vacuum. Dedicated carpet washers/cleaners/shampooers make it a lot easier to clean carpets as they will have rollers to agitate the carpet drop the liquid suck it dry it etc. A wet and dry vacuum that cleans carpets may require a lot more labour for washing carpets or for (dry) vacuuming of carpets.

Search for sentences like "wet and dry carpet cleaner" "wet and dry carpet washer".

I have probably confused everything now
