In the process of keeping your home clean, choosing the right Floor Vacuum Cleaner head and cleaning mode according to the floor material is the key to achieving efficient cleaning and protecting the floor.
For solid wood floors, the surface is relatively smooth and easily scratched. Therefore, you should choose a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush or felt material head. The soft brush can gently brush away dust and hair on the floor surface to avoid scratching the floor. In terms of cleaning mode, it is advisable to use a low-power, gentle suction mode. Excessive suction may open the gaps in solid wood floors or damage the floor's paint. For example, some high-end vacuum cleaners are equipped with a "wood floor mode" specifically for solid wood floors. In this mode, the suction power is automatically adjusted to the appropriate intensity, and the soft brush will fit closely to the floor surface, effectively cleaning the dust without causing any damage to the floor.
Carpet materials are different. Carpet fibers are relatively thick and easy to harbour dirt, especially deep dust and debris. For short-haired carpets, you can use a suction head with rotating bristles. The rotating bristles can penetrate deep into the carpet fibers, stir up dust and debris, and then be sucked away by strong suction. In terms of cleaning mode, you can choose a higher suction mode to ensure that the dirt deep in the carpet is completely removed. For long-haired carpets, in order to prevent the bristles from being entangled, you should choose a suction head with a comb structure. The comb teeth can straighten the hair and fibers, so that the suction force can better act on the carpet, while avoiding excessive entanglement between the bristles and the hair.
For tile or marble floors, the surface is hard and smooth. Ordinary hard floor suction heads can meet the cleaning needs. This type of suction head is usually made of rubber or plastic, which can fit the floor tightly and effectively clean dust and stains. The cleaning mode can choose medium suction according to the actual situation, which can not only clean the floor, but also will not make noise or consume too much power due to excessive suction.
When cleaning the transition area between floors of different materials, the multi-functional suction heads of some vacuum cleaners come into play. It can flexibly adjust the angle and height, and conveniently clean the transition areas between solid wood floors and carpets, tiles and carpets, etc., without the need to frequently change the suction head, which improves the cleaning efficiency.
In addition, some advanced vacuum cleaners are also equipped with intelligent sensing functions, which can automatically identify the floor material and automatically adjust the suction head and cleaning mode according to the preset program. This is more convenient for users, and efficient cleaning of different floor materials can be achieved without manual switching.
