In recent years, robot vacuums and mops have revolutionized household cleaning by automating the tedious task of keeping floors spotless. These smart devices save us countless hours and effort, integrating seamlessly into our routines. A common question among users, however, is whether they can use cleaning solutions with their robot mops. The answer is yes, but there are important guidelines to follow. Next, we will take a closer look at how to properly apply cleaning fluids when using robot mops.
Why do you need to choose the right cleaning solution？
Choosing a suitable cleaning solution for the robot mop is also very important, as it will directly affect the cleaning effect and the life of the device. The cleaning fluid recommended by the manufacturer is not a mere promotion, but a careful consideration of the design and materials of the device. Using an incorrect solution can lead to damage, reduced efficiency, and in some cases, void the warranty.
The right cleaning fluid can ensure the smooth operation of the robot mop, prevent clogging and corrosion, and effectively deal with various cleaning problems, including hair, stains, debris and dust. In addition, different floor types require specific cleaning fluids. For instance, plush carpets and rugs often need specific solutions for effective stain removal.
Types of Cleaning Solutions Suitable for Robot Mops
When choosing a cleaning fluid for a robot mop, water is often the best choice. Its strong stain-removal ability is essential to the cleaning process. However, using a cleaning solution can enhance cleaning efficiency.
Avoid DIY Solutions: While homemade solutions like vinegar or bleach mixed with water are popular for traditional mopping, they are not recommended for robot mops. If these cleaning fluids are not used properly, they may cause damage and corrosion to the internal parts of the device.
Manufacturer-Recommended Solutions: Narwal users can trust Narwal cleaning solutions, which are compatible with many models, including the Freo series, and have a low-foaming, low-corrosive formula that effectively tackles stains such as coffee and juice while protecting hard floors from damage.
How do you add and use a cleaning solutions?
Before adding cleaning solutions to your robot mop, always confirm its suitability and strictly follow the manufacturer's guidelines on dilution ratios and water tank capacity. Most robot mops have dedicated compartments to ensure the correct mixing of water and cleaning solutions.
When in operation, the robot mop accurately distributes water and cleaning solutions to the floor, and then the mop pad or brushes will effectively remove dirt, stains and spills. Depending on the model, dirty water is absorbed or collected in a dedicated water tank for disposal.
Maintenance and Care for Optimal Performance
Using the proper cleaning solution is just the first step. Regular maintenance of the robot mop is a key part of ensuring its efficient operation. This covers the following important steps:
Thoroughly clean the water tank and mop pad: After each use, be sure to rinse the water tank and mop pad thoroughly with clean water to prevent stains and residue accumulation and keep them clean and hygienic.
Regular Maintenance Checkups: Regular maintenance checks, including cleaning components such as brushes and belts, keep the device running smoothly. Also, check and clean the filter to capture fine dust and allergens.
Emptying the Dustbin: Regardless of the size of the dustbin, it should be emptied regularly to avoid odors and maintain cleaning efficiency.
Professional Repairs: If the robot mop fails, please send it to the manufacturer for professional repair. Never disassemble and repair it without authorization.
Improve cleaning performance with cleaning solutions
Cleaning fluid can significantly improve the cleaning performance of a robot mop, especially in a home environment with many pets, children or people. It effectively breaks down grease and stubborn stains, ensuring that floors are clean and hygienic.
