Talk about peusaect cleaning

Few people like to clean! Often this dislike begins in childhood, develops during the “transitional” age and weakens a little bit only at the beginning of adult life.

Our experts, representing the firms that produce vacuum cleaners, didn’t promise to make cleaning a pleasure, but they told us what technologies and novelties of home appliances can help to optimize the process of cleaning and make it more rational, fast and qualitative.

Cleaning in the house: going downstairs and dropping tables

“Consumer”: The cleaning routine, strange as it may seem, can easily become the cause of a family quarrel: the mother-in-law thinks that you should wipe the dust first, and then take a mop, and the daughter-in-law thinks that you should not….. Is there a right way to do it??

Arina Sumkina, Rowenta: For a home cleaning, you need the right mood first of all, if you want, a special mood, with which you can clean quickly and effectively. To do this, turn on your favorite music or TV program and go!

Our Silence Force and Compact Silence Force models make cleaning a pleasure, because they are low-noise and powerful at the same time.

Olga Ilyina, LG: it is more rational to start cleaning from the top down. I think that this method would be used by any experienced host or hostess. But for “beginners” in cleaning, it can indeed be difficult to organize such a seemingly easy process. Usually you start grabbing at the first thing you see, and you end up making a bigger mess and spending more time…

So first of all we wipe dust starting from the “highest” places in the apartment this category includes custody, cornices, shelves do not forget that your favorite knickknacks also need care , then come down and hit the tables, consoles, countertops and chairs.

After that we move on to upholstered furniture, which we often bypass, even though it is usually the main “collector of dust”, giving way to carpets and the floor.

Ludmila Pavlova, Thomas: It really doesn’t matter how you start cleaning. You can wash your floors with the most modern cleaners and use the most modern vacuum cleaners to clean carpets, upholstered furniture and floors, but almost any cleaning method cleans the surface, while the dust is in the room.

The exhaust of any vacuum cleaner, even a theoretically ideal one, enhances movement of air currents in the room, additionally lifting dust from surfaces, and it “flies” through the air and falls into our lungs or lays on freshly cleaned surfaces to do it later. Moreover, since dust attracts moisture, the air which the vacuum cleaner cleanses from dust also absorbs moisture in the dust, i.e. dries it out and creates a real “flying” weather for the dust while it is being vacuumed.

This is not a problem for owners of Thomas vacuum cleaners with a water filter as ours not only provides constantly high suction power and almost perfect 99.999% dust-free air, but also has a wet exhaust which doesn’t lift dust into the air but enforces its “forced landing” on surfaces and from there it is sucked into the vacuum cleaner and held by water.

Danil Yakunenko, Electrolux: There were traditional rules for cleaning. At the very least, it was recommended to dust first and then vacuum. Much of this was due to the fact that conventional vacuum cleaners greatly inflated the dust that was lying on the surfaces.

Electrolux vacuum cleaners have an upward-flowing air-flow pattern instead of an upward-flow pattern. It keeps the dust from blowing up on the floor. And you can’t let the dust out of the vacuum cleaner because it’s hermetically sealed. So with modern, quality equipment, the sequence of actions is not crucial.

Julia Rumyantseva, Dyson: I don’t wipe the dust off at all – I use a vacuum cleaner to eliminate it: the variety of nozzles and the flexibility of modern models allow me to do this. And I use a wet rag if there are stains on the surface from, say, a cup, manna, or other traces of snacking in various places in the house. But in general, I stick to the top-down principle: next comes upholstered furniture and floors.

“THE CONSUMER:

It immediately raises the question: do I really have to climb on top of the cupboards every time?? Something has been invented to alleviate this torment?

Danil Yakunenko, Electrolux: The best way to clean these tough surfaces is with Electrostatic Brooms. Electrolux Easyclean is not only a great broom for dust, but it’s also a dust extraction nozzle for your Electrolux vacuum cleaner. In this flask, thanks to the vortex flow, you can clean the broom in a few seconds after cleaning, as well as restore the electrostatic charge of the fibers.

Yulia Rumyantseva, Dyson: We have a special nozzle for such high and hard-to-reach places. And in vertical models there is a special hose for such things, with which you can vacuum also curtains and ceilings. To think how much dust flies off the closet if you wipe it with a rag or sponge, even wet.

Trade in the dustpan for a vacuum cleaner

“The consumer: is it possible to clean without appliances, or is it nonsense nowadays??

Olga Ilyina, LG: everyone has its own limit of quality and effort. If you are ready to mop the floor three times, why not??!

Ludmilla Pavlova, Thomas: To mop the floor really clean, you have to imagine a totally fantastic situation: after every contact of the mop with the floor, change the bucket for a new one, pour in clean water and change the mop head for a new one as well. Of course, it’s not realistic. And without all these activities we will be mopping a dirty floor with a dirty mop and dirty water.

In fact, the floor can only be cleaned cleanly with a wet vacuum cleaner always with a powerful pump, as in all Thomas vacuum cleaners , which delivers only clean ! water and remove all the dirt from the carpet, leaving the floor sparkling. And with the carpet not only a broom can not cope, but any vacuum cleaner without a washing function.

A broom removes coarse dirt only at the top of the carpet, a good powerful dry vacuum cleaner reaches the middle of the nap. But below that nothing can help, except washing vacuum cleaners Thomas.

They have a specially designed extra sharp nozzle to get deeper into the nap, a powerful pump 4 bar and high constant suction power. All this dissolves the dirt and dust in the water and removes the grime from deep within the carpet pile. After this cleaning, the carpet is clean and looks like new.

Julia Rumyantseva, Dyson: And why not?? You can take the carpet outside, beat it there for an hour, then leave it to freeze to kill germs. At this time to wipe the dust, mop the floor with a rag.

Then use upholstery foam to clean it. Airing and taking the carpet in off the street. But is it really worth it?? It’s much easier, more enjoyable and far more effective to take advantage of the advances in technology…

Arina Sumkina, Rowenta: We have launched a new product – bagless vacuum cleaner INTENSIUM which provides high efficiency of dust collection regardless of the fullness of the container. Vacuuming usually loses efficiency as the container fills up or the filter gets clogged. You have to constantly change or clean the filter and empty the container.

This innovation provides a high level of separation of dust from the air, which leads to a constant and high efficiency of dust collection. The INTENSIUM vacuum cleaner separates dust and stores it in two different places. Dust particles first level coarse dust, second level fine dust are separated from the air and falls into the dust container.

Two-level separation system provides high percentage of dust separation from the air: Only 1% of dust reaches and stays in the filters. That way the filter will not be clogged, all dust will go into the container and the separation compartment will be empty. What do we get in the end?? Constant and high dust collection efficiency, which means fast and high-quality cleaning.

Natalia Bobrova, “BSH”: Without using household appliances is very difficult to achieve quality results. The filter system is the cornerstone of a vacuum cleaner.

The important thing is that the vacuum cleaner should not only pick up the maximum amount of dust, but also retain it, not allowing the tiniest particles and bacteria to “escape” back into the air. The sealed housing of the Bosch vacuum cleaners, which prevents dust from leaking through the construction elements, and a highly efficient filtration system does not give dust even the slightest chance to get back into the room air. Our dust mops capture up to 99.997% of all dust particles.

“The consumer:

without household chemicals? Ecology is disgusting, but at home so you want to arrange their own ecosystem…

Ludmila Pavlova, Thomas: Does Thomas have a range of cleaning concentrates for removing stains on the carpet, upholstered furniture or for cleaning very dirty floors?. They are pH-neutral and harmless to children’s rooms and animals.

But even with a Thomas vacuum cleaner without adding detergent which is important for people who cannot tolerate even small amounts of chemicals , that is, only clean water, the result will be higher than with traditional cleaning.

Danil Yakunenko, Electrolux: For window and mirror cleaning we recommend the Electrolux Microfiber cloth. In just a few movements the glass will be clean and streak-free. Fiber structure makes it possible to remove even staphylococcus aureus from the surface.

No chemicals are used. After cleaning, the cloth should be hand-washed with soap and water and dried like a normal cloth. And in general – you do not need to “empty” your home so much that you need special chemicals for cleaning.

Olga Ilyina, LG: My advice is to use a universal steam nozzle that sucks up the dust and simultaneously treats the floor with hot steam, which allows you to remove more bacteria than with a normal vacuum cleaner and mop. So you’ll be surprised at how fresh the air in your home can be – and without any chemicals!

This is all the more important when cleaning is nearing its end, there is only one floor to clean, and there is simply no energy left to vacuum and clean it anymore. We also have the Sani Punch automatic dusting nozzle: It thoroughly removes dirt and even beats out dust mites from floors, upholstered furniture and mattresses – another alternative to “chemicals”: The physics of! The nozzle operates through mechanical vibration – in the range of 3500 blows per minute!

“Consumer”

As we’re talking about technology we can’t help but ask what’s new and what kind of know-how we can call “passed the test”?

Ludmilla Pavlova, Thomas: Thomas vacuum cleaners use a patented aqua filter, which allows you to dry your apartment without bags, which means the unit maintains a constantly high suction power. The vacuum cleaner cleans equally well and quickly at the beginning and end of a cleaning cycle.

Thomas Aqua Filter differs from other Aqua Filters in that it allows dust to pass through a mist like a trickle of water, which results in the highest degree of filtration, while other appliances with a similar name, manufacturers pass the dust through water, which allows small particles in the air bubbles back into the room.

Dmitry Dmitriev, Samsung: The key indicator of a vacuum cleaner’s efficiency is its suction power. As the dust canister or reservoir gets full, the suction power decreases and the cleaning performance suffers.

Samsung has taken this into account and developed bagless vacuum cleaners with Twin and Multi Chamber technology, which allows you to maintain a constant suction power.

Natalia Bobrova, “BSH”: In vacuum cleaners Bosch, it is certainly the compressor technology ®. The engineers took a lot of inspiration from aircraft and car manufacturing. The result is vacuum cleaners with this technology that deliver the same cleaning efficiency as their 2400W counterparts, while drawing 30% less power and being very quiet.

Olga Ilyina, LG: I can tell you a few “secrets” at a time. Firstly, there is the compression technology in LG vacuums: the dust is compressed into a dense briquette which does not create puffs of dust when it is shaken out of the container, preventing it from re-polluting the surrounding environment.

The container has to be cleaned much less frequently because it holds 4 times the amount of dust and dirt than any container without compression technology. Second, LG developed a vacuum cleaner with a double-layered outlet filter: carbon + HEPA. The air comes out 99.95% pure, the smallest particles are trapped and the charcoal granules absorb odors.

“Consumer”

: In the West, people very often have two vacuum cleaners: one for “general” and one for daily express cleaning. Is it rational or not for us?

Dmitriy Dmitriev, Samsung: Modern household appliances guarantee high quality of cleaning both in daily and “general” cleaning. Between the two, I would go for the ‘normal’ version, hoping that if I clean a lot, I won’t need to do a lot of ‘general cleaning’!

Julia Rumyantseva, Dyson: I am delighted with the Dyson DC31 handheld vacuum cleaner. Thanks to it, I do not have a broom at home, the branches of which are always sticky hair and dust, which must then be removed by hand. Quite an unpleasant procedure. In general, the model was designed as a kitchen helper, i.e. e. The second one is a vacuum cleaner in the house. Very handy anytime you spill something or just see crumbs in the corner. One minute, and everything is clean and hygienic.

Danil Yakunenko, Electrolux: The new upright vacuum cleaner ErgoRapido is booming on the market. It is a special vacuum cleaner with batteries for quick cleaning. Beautiful and efficient, it’s always readily available, unlike a normal vacuum cleaner. Crumbs, hair, and other small debris are now a matter of seconds.

“Consumer.”

And if you want to do a thorough cleaning bathrooms, rooms, kitchen, windows you can do with just one appliance? Are there such unis in your product lines??

Ludmila Pavlova, Thomas: A Thomas vacuum cleaner with dry and wet cleaning functions allows us to do it in the time we spend on a regular weekly cleaning, as good as if we were doing a general. And you don’t need two or more different appliances for that. All Thomas vacuum cleaners not only clean the floor and carpet, but also the bathroom tiles, kitchen tile, windows and mirrors, and always with clean water.

Yulia Rumyantseva, Dyson: We have models with Motorhead for all types of surfaces. They can clean hard surfaces, furniture and carpets with large, fluffy pile. In general, all Dyson models are equipped with nozzles, depending on different needs. Some have a lot of carpets, some have pets at home, some suffer from allergies – “let everyone choose by himself.

Natalia Bobrova, “BSH”: Yes, there is. Ergomaxx professional series vacuum cleaner with a universal attachment “4 in 1”. It replaces a variable length nozzle short and long , upholstered furniture nozzle and radio frequency nozzle. Also the vacuum cleaner is equipped with a special nozzle for drilling.

Arina Sumkina, Rowenta: I would choose the Rowenta Compact Silence Force vacuum cleaner. It was love at first sight! The optimum combination of performance and compact size.

Is good for a quick everyday cleaning – it is powerful and maneuverable, and for general cleaning – a lot of brushes for different types of surfaces, ho roshaya filtering system with HEPA13, a large volume of dust canister 3.5 liters , which I enough for a month – is the two cats “in the kit!

It also runs quietly, doesn’t scare cats and allows you to listen to music while you’re cleaning. The Compact Silence Force has a compact storage system which reduces the height of the Compact Silence Force assembled by 30%, and allows storing small nozzles on it. Mine “lives” in the closet.

A parquet, a rug and a teddy bear: how do we clean??

“Consumer”: parquet, expensive carpets, delicate furniture upholstery – what do you advise to keep everything “clean and safe”?

Dmitriy Dmitriev, Samsung: When cleaning your parquet it’s better to use special parquet brushes, any serious vacuum cleaner manufacturer has them in its assortment. Different in design, they ensure that there will be no scratches on the floor, and the increased size of the brush allows you to make cleaning faster.

Olga Ilyina, LG: To work with delicate surfaces there is a nozzle for parquet, which will clean your floor extremely gently and delicately. The broom and mastic in the past!

Yulia Rumyantseva, Dyson: And for expensive carpets, including silk and handmade, we recommend using a turbo brush attachment. The air in the brush rotates the roller, making it gentler and more efficient than standard carpet nozzles.

Danil Yakunenko, Electrolux: For parquet a special soft shag nozzle is used. On expensive carpets we do however recommend avoiding the use of turbo or electric brushes: they can damage the nap.

Ludmilla Pavlova, Thomas: The premium Thomas Twin t2 aquafilter has a special infinitely adjustable water flow and a special clean nozzle for cleaning parquet and laminate. So, this model is really universal, that is designed for any coverings: pile carpets and rugs , smooth parquet, laminate, tiles, linoleum, tiles, plastic, windows, mirrors , horizontal and vertical.

Our vacuum cleaners have a special brush for hard floors, which doesn’t scratch them. And Bosch has developed the patented Pro Parquet duo soft, which has the added advantage of two natural pile rotating rollers that are removable and easy to clean.

“Consumer.Toy stuffed animals: It can be very hard to manage – if you have a lot of them in the house, they’re a real breeding ground for dust. And our kids spend so much time with them!

Arina Sumkina, Rowenta: toys can be vacuumed, too. Put stuffed toys in a plastic bag and pour one or two cups of soda1, tie it tightly1 and shake it. We take the toys out, shake off the soda well and vacuum them with a turbo brush to remove all the tiny lint without ruining the appearance of your favorite toys.

“Consumer”: in the end, probably one of the most important questions. What will help pet owners who dream and enjoy the company of their pets and live in cleanliness?

Arina Sumkina, Rowenta: With carpets, of course, the turbo brush is the best way to cope: it picks up all the hairs and fur of your pets.

Natalia Bobrova, “BSX”: The vacuum cleaner GL-30 series from Bosch, which is equipped with a special filter Bionic. The Bionic filter is based on the processes of nature itself.

The odour filter in G-L-30 vacuum cleaners neutralises odours on a molecular level: the molecules responsible for bad odours are absorbed by macromolecules called clathrates.

So at the end of the vacuum we get fresh and full of air. And the Bionic filter is twice as efficient as the activated charcoal filter and you only have to replace it once a year.

Another neat extra feature of many of our vacuums is the optional ProAnimal Hair floor brush, which has a special design that picks up hair from carpets and hard floors much more effectively and thoroughly than traditional brushes.
