With the widespread use of artificial turf in residential courtyards, sports fields, public green spaces and other fields, its cleaning and maintenance issues are increasingly valued. This article will start with basic cleaning techniques, introduce professional steps and tools for daily dust removal, stain treatment and deep cleaning, and analyze the cleaning differences and precautions of artificial turf of different materials.
Cleaning artificial turf requires a combination of daily maintenance and regular deep cleaning to maintain its appearance and function. The following are specific steps and precautions:
1. Daily maintenance
Clean up debris in time
Use a soft brush or vacuum cleaner to remove dust, fallen leaves, pet feces, etc. on the surface.
Avoid using sharp tools to prevent scratching the grass.
Rinse the surface
Rinse with clean water (low-pressure water gun or water pipe) to flush away fine particles and stains.
If there is stagnant water, use a broom to gently push the drainage (pay attention to the unobstructed drainage holes of the 3D hollow structure).
2. Deep cleaning
Washing with mild detergent
Mix a mixed solution of neutral detergent (such as dishwashing liquid) and water.
Dip a soft brush or sponge in the solution and gently brush the contaminated area.
Avoid using chlorine or acidic detergents to prevent fading or aging.
Sterilization and deodorization
Pet urine or food residues need to be treated with diluted white vinegar (1:3 ratio) or professional disinfectant spray.
When the odor is severe, sprinkle a small amount of baking soda and let it stand before cleaning.
3. Special stain treatment
Oil stains/paint: After absorbing with a paper towel, spray alcohol or professional degreaser, and then wipe.
Chewing gum: Use a plastic shovel to remove after freezing to avoid tearing the grass.
Rust: Gently wipe with lemon juice or special rust remover.
4. Precautions
Avoid high-pressure water guns: High-pressure water flow may damage the drainage structure at the bottom of the turf.
Prevent exposure to the sun: Ventilate and dry in time after cleaning to avoid high temperature that accelerates material aging.
Regular inspection: Clean the blocked drainage holes to keep the 3D hollow structure draining smoothly.
The above methods can not only keep the artificial turf clean and beautiful, but also extend its service life.
If the pollution is serious or the area is large, it is recommended to contact a professional cleaning service.
