How to Dry Wet Carpet
Professional Auckland Steam n Dry Flood Cleaners Services uses truck mount extraction, dehumidifier and blower dryers to dry the wet carpet quickly. Perhaps an effective removal of standing water will significantly impact the time required to bring the building back to a dry condition.
Furthermore, it is tough to foresee a water damage emergency. And it might be the middle of the night when a pipe in the ceiling bursts. In which the resulting damage will spread and worsen before you wake up. However, call immediately if you are lucky enough to notice the problem. Our services use a premium truck mount extraction in South Auckland Central City CBD, North Shore, East, West Auckland, and Hibiscus Coast. Our technicians are highly trained and have extensive experience in the various techniques and tools available to remove water quickly, efficiently and safely.
Tips For Water Extraction & Drying Via DIY Process For Wet Carpet
- Please turn off all circuit breakers supplying electricity to wet areas when safe. Also, remove any small electrical devices from these areas.
- Use powerful water extraction, or you can hire truck-mount cleaners from us at Auckland Steam n Dry.
- Avoid walking on a wet carpet to minimise any damages further.
- Remove furniture from the carpet, and place aluminium foil under the legs. It helps prevent rust or furniture stains, which may become permanent.
- Hang draperies and pin-up furniture skirts to avoid contact with wet floors, helping to prevent watermark stains.
- Be safe at all times. A wet carpet can be a breeding place for germs and bacteria—exercise safety and hygiene. Wear hand gloves and face masks as needed.
- Remove breakables, moisture-sensitive and high-value items, books, shoes, paper goods, fabrics, potted plants, and any other items that may stain floor coverings (additionally, remember to check under beds and furniture).
- Do not use a home vacuum to remove water to avoid the chance of electrical shock. Use dryers such as dehumidifiers and carpet blower fans.
- Do not handle any contaminated items, and do not turn on fans, heating, or air conditioning units as they may spread the pathogens.
- Plan for restoration crews to move furniture into unaffected dry areas. Therefore, choose Professional Auckland Steam n Dry Carpet Flood Cleaners Services 1988.
- Ensure that the lower walls, skirting boards, carpet under, and subflooring are property dry below 18% to stop mould and other pathogens growth within the home premises before completion.
- Make sure to practice good personal hygiene after handling affected items.

Other Drying Equipment
If using a vacuum that is not adequate to dry the wet carpet or building, you can also use a carpet dryer fan and dehumidifier —both of these drying types of equipment work by sucking out the moisture and allowing it to evaporate. However, you can skip this task if you do not have the tools or equipment at home. Hence, you can hire or rent these drying equipment from Auckland Steam N Dry.
Wet Carpet Drying, Cleaning and Disinfecting
When the carpet is dry, you can move it and check all its parts. First, try to find any remaining stains and dirt. To ensure the carpeting is germ-free, apply a deodorising or sanitising solution. It is excellent, especially if the carpet has been submerged in floodwaters carrying many germs and bacteria. It’s essential to disinfect the carpet to avoid diseases among its residents.
