It would seem that everyone knows how to clean the house. Every housewife knows how to dust, sweep and wash the floor. But today, much of what mothers and grandmothers taught has become outdated, and sometimes even harmful.
Clean the floor in a new way
How familiar is a rag that has been tested by generations of female housewives, for example, the one that used to be a T-shirt, dress or towel. However, such washing will not always make the floor clean.
The reason for this is the type of flooring that has gained popularity in recent decades. Our mothers and grandmothers dealt with painted wooden floors or linoleum, and less often with parquet.
Today, it is not customary to paint wooden floors with oil paint. The trend is the natural color of wood or preservation of wood texture. This means that floor care needs to be different. Microfiber and the absence of abrasives will protect the surface from scratches, damage, and stains.
Another fashionable, economical coating is laminate, which, unfortunately, is vulnerable to water. It requires more gentle washing, for example, with special sponges that absorb moisture well.
Porcelain tiles are also popular. This coating, despite its strength, requires special care. The tile surface and grout joints require attention.
Eco-friendly cork floors also have their own characteristics. For example, you need to wash the cork with a small amount of water, then immediately wipe it dry.Microfiber is considered the preferred material for wet cleaning.
Modern floor cleaning devices
The mops also became different. They can be made of wood or plastic, telescopic, with special clamps that will not allow the rag to slip off.
Modern mops come with a variety of cloth attachments. They are firmly attached to the base, which, in turn, is securely fixed to the mop. One of the best materials is microfiber.
Plastic attachments with a sponge do an excellent job of cleaning floors. They absorb water well and efficiently collect dust from the surface. These models are equipped with a spinning device, which simplifies the cleaning process.
Modern brushes also handle cleaning carefully and efficiently. Today you can purchase not only mechanical, but even electrical models.
New household appliances
In addition to mops with a variety of attachments, manufacturers offer household appliances designed to keep the floor clean. They are created taking into account the requirements for modern floor coverings.
A steam mop will clean any type of floor well, and in addition, it will disinfect the surface. Suitable for laminate, linoleum, cork.
Washing vacuum cleaners have long become a part of our lives. You can't ignore robotic vacuum cleaners. Little invisible helpers will save your floors and free up time that can be spent productively.
The days of mopping floors with a mop are becoming a thing of the past. Modern technologies allow you to choose a variety of flooring options, as well as care products.Thanks to this, you can create a unique interior, and then spend a minimum of time and effort maintaining cleanliness.
