How To Vacuum a shag rug by Luvarug.com http://luvarug.com
The trick to knowing how to vacuum a shag rug is all about understanding the construction of the rug itself.
The problem with shag rugs is the fibres are so long you cannot use the same technique to vacuum a shag rug as you do with carpet or hard floors.
The long shag fibres make it impossible for the rotating beater bar of any vacuum to be effective because it cannot not get down far enough where all the dirt settles to.
The best way is to hang the rug over a something like a railing to open up the rug fibres so you can see the foundation of the rug. Then you use your vacuum’s crevice tool to get in at the foundation and suck it all up.
Yes this is a long, tedious and laborious task but it is the really the only way to thoroughly get all the dirt your shag rug hides.
But.
If you prefer not to go through all that hassle then you can bring your rug to Luv-A-Rug Services and we can just dust the rug for you for just a nominal charge without having to wash it.
