Washing Carpets is Easy and Affordable!

Deep cleaning is an ideal way to freshen up a tired-looking carpet, brighten the colour and put a spring back into the pile. It also helps prolong the life of a carpet by removing the ground-in dirt that flattens and damages carpet fibres, which dry vacuuming alone can't reach. All the family will feel the benefit too, as washing gets rid of unwelcome guests like pollen, bacteria and dust mites that thrive in warm, humid environments and can trigger allergies.  

As hiring a professional cleaner to deep clean your home can be costly - around £70-£100 for two average sized rooms - it makes more economic sense to invest in a carpet washer.

With prices starting from under £100, Rapide carpet washers have been designed by Vax to be as easy to use as a regular dry vacuum and provide an affordable way to wash carpets and suck up spills. 

The V-024 Rapide Classic is a lightweight, upright carpet washer with a static brushbar that gently loosens and lifts dirt from carpet pile. Easy to fill, empty, use and store, the Rapide's handle lays flat to the floor so you can clean under and around furniture really easily.  

Next up are the V-025 Rapide and V-026 Rapide Deluxe, which both have a rotating brushbar that agitates carpet pile to lift and remove ground-in dirt and stains. The Deluxe has all the features of the Rapide, plus a wash tool and flexible hose for refreshing stairs, upholstery and car interiors.  

In addition to a wash tool, the V-028 Rapide PowerJet Pro has an extra wide cleaning path so it's good for washing larger areas of carpet. It has a static brushbar that agitates pile to dislodge dirt and PowerJet technology that pumps jets of water deep into carpet fibres, and also a wash tool for cleaning stairs and upholstery. 

Topping the range is the V-027 Rapide XL, which features two contra-rotating brushbars to deep clean carpet fibres and groom pile, as well as extra large capacity clean and dirty water tanks.  

The V-033 Rapide Compact is the newest addition to the range. It's a portable, lightweight spot cleaner with a hand tool and hose for washing stairs, upholstery and car interiors.  

All Rapide carpet washers come with Vax carpet washing solutions that are specially formulated to hygienically clean deep into carpet, lifting dirt and stains, and preventing odours. Vax solutions dry leaving a fresh fragrance without any sticky residue, helping to prevent resoiling.
