Finding The Right Tool For Your Cleaning Needs
Hardwood Flooring
Horsehair floor tools are the best option for any scratchable surfaces like hardwood, vinyl, or laminate floors. The horsehair bristles are softer than tools with nylon bristles, which can scratch floors easily.
Tile and Brick
Nylon bristle floor tools are perfect for tile and brick floors. They are more durable than the horse hair bristles and are able to deal with rough surfaces for a longer period of time.
Dusting Brushes
Dusting brushes are the perfect option for cleaning any surface that gathers dust from blinds and drapes to shelves and corners of ceilings.
Stairs
Depending on your stair surfaces there are a few different options for cleaning your stairs other than your powerhead or floor tools. Turbo tools or upholstery tools can be easier to use than your floor tool or vacuum nozzle due to the lighter weight of just a hose and small tool.
Turbo tools like the Wessel Werks air driven tools are perfect for getting a deeper clean on your carpeted stairs, these tools are like a mini powerhead with a turning brush roll which aggravates the carpet fibers to loosen up dust and dirt.
Upholstery Tools also work for both carpeted and hard surface stairs. Although they don’t vibrate the carpet fibers like a turbo tool does they can be a cheaper and lighter option to having a cleaner home.
Upholstery
Turbo tools can also be a good option for getting pet hair and dust off of upholstered furniture,the bristles aggravate the fibers in your upholstery to loosen up dirt and dust.
The Fur-Get-It tool by Riccar (Pictured to the left) is a great option for pet owners, the fibers on this upholstery tool cling to hair follicles and sucks them up as you move the tool in the opposite direction.
Upholstery Tools are another cheap and light option for households without sheading pets, these are perfect for picking up light dust and debris from any upholstery surface.
