Ensure the runner has acclimatized to room temperature for at least 24 hours. Check that the stairs are level and clean. Use carpet grippers and adhesive tape to secure it firmly, pulling taut to eliminate creases.
Rotate or flip the runner if possible (though most stair runners are directional). Vacuum regularly to lift pile. Consider a rug protector spray for added durability in the most used sections.
For stubborn stains, use a bleach-cleanable solution as per care instructions, testing first in an inconspicuous area. For severe stains, professional cleaning may be necessary.
Ensure the correct type of carpet grippers and strong adhesive tape designed for carpets are used. Check that the backing of the runner is clean and dry, as dirt or moisture can affect adhesion.
Setup: Unroll the runner and allow it to acclimatize to room temperature for at least 24 hours before installation. Ensure the stairs are clean and dry. For optimal security and to prevent slipping, it is recommended to use carpet grippers and appropriate adhesive tape designed for stair runners. Secure the runner firmly, ensuring it lies flat without creases.
Compatibility: This runner is designed for standard staircases. Ensure your measurements are accurate for the specified 60 cm width and 480 cm length. It is compatible with most standard stair types but check precise fit before purchasing.
Care: For routine cleaning, vacuum regularly using a standard vacuum cleaner. For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, use a solution of mild detergent and water or a bleach-based cleaner, testing in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Professional cleaning is recommended for deep-seated stains.
