Your Kirby has the flexibility to handle many cleaning assignments, and you’ll get the best results with the least work by using the correct attachment for each job.
The best attachment for each surface depends on whether the area is flat or contoured, easily accessed or difficult to reach, and its texture, such as stone or carpeting. Consider using the suction control grip to adjust for the surface texture and angle.
The best way to keep carpets clean is to vacuum thoroughly then shampoo. If there is a stubborn spot on the carpet, it can be removed with a Kirby Spot Remover or use Kirby's Pretreat for High Traffic Areas before shampooing for best results. The portable shampooer is best for stains on stairs or hard-to-reach areas.
The upholstery nozzle is often best for upholstery, and pet owners should strongly consider using the optional Zippbrush. Its rotating brushes gently detach and vacuum pet and human hair from upholstery and other fabrics.
Regular vacuuming helps keep dirt from embedding in your carpeting and other surfaces. Still, household surfaces become the cleanest when using the Kirby carpet shampoo formulated for the Kirby Multi-Surface Shampoo System. Those with pets achieve their best results using the Pet Owner's Carpet Shampoo.
Kirby vacuum tools include an attachment hose and extension tubes that provide access to ceilings, walls, and other difficult-to-reach areas. The numerous attachments can be easily switched as you move through your home.
Kirby vacuums deep clean with bristles that rotate at 3,200 RPMs and generate the airflow and suction to remove dander, dirt, and other debris. Before shampooing, vacuum the stain thoroughly with your vacuum set at the correct height. Pre-treating stubborn stains is also critical, but the key to removing stubborn stains is using Kirby's Multi-Surface Shampoo System. It applies foam rather than soapy water to remove stains and prevent their reappearance.
Your Kirby comes with many of the best vacuum attachments available. While built to last, they will perform better and last longer if maintained properly.
Kirby attachments benefit from removing hair, threads, or other items caught in the brushes. An occasional rinsing also helps.
Kirby's Multi-Surface Shampoo System should be cleaned immediately after each use with mild soap and water and allowed to air dry before storing. (See your product manual for instructions). Proper cleaning removes soaps or chemicals from the tools and prevents potential clogs.
Your Kirby vacuum and accessories are engineered to last a lifetime. Some deep cleaning attachments, such as the optional Zippbrush, can accumulate hair or threads in the internal mechanism. Disassemble it occasionally to remove trapped items to ensure maximum efficiency.
The Kirby home cleaning system provides effective cleaning attachments that help keep your home looking gorgeous with one do-it-all tool. The deep suction vacuum removes dirt and allergens while easily converting to shampoo carpets or scrubbing other surfaces thoroughly.
