FAQs
How many replacement mop pads are included?
The kit includes 7 machine washable microfibre cleaning pads.
Can I use these pads with any steam mop?
No, these pads are specifically designed for VAX Steam Cleaners with a triangular floorhead and are compatible with select VAX models listed in the compatibility section.
How often should I replace the mop pads?
The pads are machine washable and reusable. Replace them when they show significant signs of wear, such as fraying, reduced absorbency, or ineffective dirt trapping, even after washing.
What is the benefit of the color-coded pads?
The color-coding allows you to assign specific pads to different rooms or types of surfaces, helping to prevent the spread of dirt and bacteria between areas of your home.
What is the maximum washing temperature for these pads?
The pads can be machine washed under 40°C.
Are these pads suitable for all floor types?
These pads are designed for hard floors and work by encapsulating water and spillages. Their effectiveness may vary on different types of hard flooring.
Troubleshooting
Pads not attaching securely
Ensure the hook and loop surfaces on both the mop head and the pad are clean and free from debris. Press down firmly to secure.
Pads not picking up dirt effectively
Check if the pad is oversaturated or if the microfibre is clogged with debris. Clean or replace the pad. Ensure the steam cleaner is functioning correctly.
Pads showing wear after washing
Ensure pads are washed at or below 40°C and are not exposed to harsh detergents or fabric softeners, which can degrade the microfibre. Air dry instead of using a high-heat tumble dryer.
