Laundering Instructions for Waterhog Mats
|
Waterhog
mats used in a ?Value Lease? program may need occasional laundering.
Although Waterhog mats are not designed for repeated commercial washings,
occasional laundering may be done if care is used. The
formula shown below is designed to ?soak and float? soil away.
It minimizes mechanical action in the wash cycle. Do
not under-load wash loads, as under-loading will increase mechanical
action and may cause damage to the mats. Always
use high water levels to reduce mechanical action. Waterhog
mats should not be washed more than once a quarter.

- Do not use high pH detergents, alkali or solvents. The break should not exceed a pH of 9.5. Use a low pH non-ionic detergent. 2-6 oz./100 # of mats. Consult with your chemical supplier for exact amounts.
- Do not dry mats in dryers.
- Lay mats flat with carpet side down following removal from the washer. This will allow any water in the mats to drain out. When dry roll mats nap out for delivery.
