Types of brushes

The floor care equipment comes with various types of brushes. They are classified as follows.

Brushes according to the degree of softness of the bristles:

1. Brush with soft bristles. Designed for “dry cleaning”. Use natural fiber products to remove dust from the floor.
2. Brush for mopping medium hardness. Ideal for cleaning walls and floors in domestic, office and apartment buildings. Such a tool can be washed and disinfected at temperatures up to 134 C.
3. Use a stiff bristle brush to clean the carpet.
4. Durable scrub brushes with very hard bristles well remove strong, old dirt from any surfaces, including those with abrasive characteristics. An instrument of this kind can be washed and disinfected at temperatures up to 130 C. The optimal angle of inclination of the instrument allows you to take the correct, ergonomic working position, which simplifies work and increases productivity.

Brushes along the length of the pile:

1. Long brushes are used more for sweeping wooden, painted concrete and other floors.
2. Use a brush with a little bristle to remove old stains on the floor. The pile of the product should be as rigid as possible. Brush with combined bristles for the floor.A durable tool with two types of fibers destroys strong and old dirt (front hard fibers) and removes them (rear soft fibers). The tool is suitable for both wet and dry cleaning. If the bristles are medium or high hardness - such a tool is great for cleaning carpets.

Important! Special nozzles are necessary for high-quality removal of pollution from any coverings, including pet hair from carpets. Comfort in the operation of the product is provided by the handle, which can have different lengths - it is provided by the holder when unfolding.

Other types:

1. Brushes for mopping with a double working part. On one side of the tool is a bristle designed to distribute detergent across the floor, as well as to clean the surface of dirt, and on the other, there is a bend to remove water when washing off the foam.
2. Special floor mops with mixed bristles. Such cleaning equipment has a special purpose. It can be used for cleaning floors and carpets.
3. Electrobrushes for the floor. It is extremely convenient to work with such tools, since no physical effort is required in order to effectively clean the floor from dirt. All you need is to connect the brush to the power supply and start cleaning. On the modern market, options are presented on batteries or accumulators, which do not even need to be included in the outlet. For smooth floors, use an electric brush with a rubber nozzle that has a thinnest blade. Such a tool will allow you to simultaneously remove accumulated dust from the surface of a smooth floor and at the same time collect excess moisture remaining after the floor cleaning procedure.

Important! To properly use the electric brushes, you must carefully read the instructions for use of the tool. And another drawback is the relatively expensive option.

Tips for choosing a floor brush

The right choice of tools for cleaning the floor can guarantee comfort in use, a high level of efficiency and durability. Therefore, treat the choice with all responsibility:

1. Clearly define the required tool functionality:
   • If you plan to use a device for sweeping the floor, then opt for designs with soft and long bristles.
   • If you plan to use a brush to clean carpets, then choose a nozzle with hard and short bristles.
2. Pay particular attention to the design of the product holder. We recommend a convenient, telescopic holder. The advantages of such a handle - you can adjust the length for the desired height.

Important! A short handle is not always functional, and too long is not very convenient.

3. Determine the material that suits you from which the pen is made. Holders can be made of plastic, wood or metal. The plastic handle is easily cleaned of dirt, does not crack and does not dry out, which means it will retain its original appearance longer. Metal is the most durable, and wooden is pleasant to the touch and makes the cleaning tool more attractive.
4. Do not forget about the level of security. According to this criterion, the wooden brush is considered the best, since the handle is made of natural material and practically does not slip.

Important! When choosing a tool, pay particular attention not only to the material itself, but to its surface. If there are any burrs or defects on the product, this can cause damage to the skin during use.

5. A high-quality floor mop on the handle surface has small rubber inserts, thanks to which the hands will not slip off the holder, and cleaning will become more comfortable.
6. When choosing a brush for the floor, purchase special scallops with which you can easily clean the bristles.
7. Choose the width of the working part according to the size of the surface to be cleaned. The more grip on the surface to be cleaned, the wider the nozzle must be in order to clean faster.
8. Choose modern models equipped with a locking system for the working part. Such tools make it easy to change worn nozzles.
