Like all carpet cleaners, a Vax carpet cleaner works by mixing detergent and warm water, releasing solution while the spinning scrub brushes remove ground-in dirt and stains. Typically, you’ll set the model to its ‘wash’ function, squeezing a trigger while pushing the cleaner forward over your surfaces. Then, you’ll release the trigger, pulling the model backwards over the area you just cleaned to remove dirt. Once you’re satisfied, you can then switch the function to ‘rinse’, repeating the same motions using only water to get rid of any excess solution and moisture. As always, we suggest reading your product manual for model-specific instructions. You can find our range of Vax carpet cleaners here.
