Why Is My New Carpet So Hard To Vacuum

On certain rugs the suction is so strong that it is hard to push and pull the vacuum even after increasing the height adjustment.

Why is my new carpet so hard to vacuum.

Finer strands have a softer feel than do thicker strands. These are rugs with a very short pile. Why they re hard to vacuum. The suction was too strong that the vacuum became difficult to move.

Sometimes a vacuum can suddenly become hard to push. Try cleaning the vacuum. But after moving to a new location with thick carpeting it suddenly became difficult to move. And unfortunately that s what many consumers have discovered when their new carpeting is installed.

However there are a few other problems that can cause a vacuum to be hard to push and they can be easily resolved. The vacuum would actually suck in the carpet and get stuck to the floor. Block the air flow and the vacuum seals itself to the carpet and is hard to push. Secondly each carpet tuft is made up of an increased number of fiber strands compared to standard carpets.

Most vacuums have height settings. For example if your vacuum is set to bare floor and you are trying to vacuum shag carpet there simply is not enough room for the brush to rotate properly or for air to flow. I found a solution though. Check to make sure you are using the appropriate setting.

If the propulsion mechanism has failed this is unfortunately something you probably can t fix yourself. And if it s the kind of vacuum that you have to plug into the wall outlet for a while well the vacuum will begin to drag if it s battery has worn down. I haven t had the problem on rugs with a deeper pile or on hard floors. Soft carpets feel so soft for a couple of reasons.

No loss of suction.
