Can You Clean Your Carpets In The Rain? Living in the Pacific Northwest, we’re no strangers to rain. We’ve all adapted accordingly and learned to love it or at least learned to live with it. The same goes for our carpet cleaning process, you adapt to the weather and you make it work. Having truckmount powered suction sets us up for success, leaving your carpets nearly dry at the end of the service. Complete dry time depends mainly on two factors: humidity levels and airflow. We can teach you how to control both of these things inside your home. So, can you clean your carpets in the rain? The answer is YES!

Fight the Humidity

If it were a beautiful sunny day, you could open your windows and let the dry air from outside assist in the drying of your carpet. When it’s clear and sunny, the humidity may be close to zero. If it’s raining though, you’ve got 100% humidity and opening your windows isn’t going to help your carpets dry. Can you clean your carpets in the rain? When it rains you have to make an environment indoors that has less humidity than the one outside. The easiest way to do that is to close the windows and set the heat to 72-75 degrees fahrenheit or 22-24 degrees celsius. Once the house has warmed through, you can open the windows about an inch or two to let the warm humid air out.

All About Airflow

Once you’ve got the heat on, the humidity will start to rise from the carpets into the air. If you don’t have anywhere for it to go, it will hang heavily around the lower half of your room in a swampy fashion. Opening the windows helps to release the pressure the hot, moist air creates within your home. Turning on a bathroom fan or kitchen fan is a great way to incite airflow and help your carpets dry faster too! If you have any other fans in your house, ceiling fan, box fan, desk fan, turn them all on too. Can you clean your carpets in the rain? Yes, but get that air moving! The more the air is moving in your home, the quicker your carpets will dry.

  • Bernard and his team are very professional. They don’t leave the job until you’re satisfied. I had some tough stains to get out and was surprised that they were able to get a lot of it out. I will definitely keep their number handy and use them again in the future!!

  • From start to finish, I am so impressed and pleased with Dazzle's Carpet Cleaning service. Kiera was kind and accommodating when booking the appointment and promptly followed up right until the technician arrived at our door. Mattias, the technician, was pleasant and thorough, and he took care to make sure our carpets were to our liking. The carpet dried quickly and was definitely clean afterwards! We have had different companies in over the years, but I think we are going to stick with Dazzle from now on.

  • I had the Dazzle come in to have our carpet cleaned prior to the arrival of our newborn. It was a very last minute decision and initially, I was hesitant about cleaning the carpet as I remembered it would usually leave a strong chemical smell and I had to ventilate the whole house for at least a couple days. We are a family of two young toddlers and a newborn on the way and I was not sure if I wanted to risk having the wet and chemical soaked carpet only a couple weeks before my due date. But I realized I worried for nothing. I was able to get an appointment promptly and get the work done in a matter of a few days. Rob and his assistant did a fantastic job! There was absolutely no need for me to worry about the smell or ventilation as there was none and the carpet were spotlessly clean. They convinced me that I could have a clean, if not cleaner, carpet without having to use strong chemical filled products. I would highly recommend to anybody but especially, for families with young children like ours who can appreciate their plant based products that are safer to little ones. All in all, I am 120% satisfied with their work and would love to have them come back to clean our carpet in the future again!

  • I recently had Dazzle clean my parents carpet after my dogs had multiple accidents in their home. They did an amazing job removing the pet stains and their customer service skills went beyond my expectations. They were extremely knowledgeable about carpets and area rugs, and at they end of their service, they gave my mother a sachet filled with cleaning and stain removing goodies to help maintain the wonderful job they did cleaning their carpets. I highly recommended going with Dazzle, if they can clean the mess my dogs made on my parents white carpets, they can clean anything.
