Mohawk Residential Care & Maintenance Guide
Your Mohawk luxury berglass vinyl ooring will provide years of carefree use. You will nd that it is not only beautiful, but
durable. It is also much easier to maintain than most other ooring products, thanks to its tough protective nish and
moisture resistance. It only takes a few simple care and maintenance steps to keep your Mohawk oor looking beautiful for
years to come.
To keep your oor clean, following these proper care and maintenance guidelines
• Sweep the oor regularly with a soft bristle broom to remove loose dirt.
• Wash the oor with non-abrasive, neutral PH oor cleaner.
• For everyday maintenance, a mop moistened with warm water will sufce.
• Spills should be cleaned up immediately.
• Ensure furniture legs have large surface, non-staining plastic oor protectors or non-staining felt pads. The protectors should be at least
one inch in diameter and rest at on the oor. The heavier the item, the wider the oor protector should be. Replace small, narrow metal
or dome-shaped glides with smooth, at glides that are in at contact with the oor.
• Heavy furniture or appliances that are not moved often should be equipped with at, non-staining composition furniture or cups of
appropriate size.
DO NOT USE the following on your vinyl ooring
• Soap based detergents
• Abrasive or mop and shine products
• Floor wax
• Vacuum cleaners with a rotating beater bar
• Ammonia or bleaches*
*For spot treatment, a diluted 1/10 solution of bleach/water is tolerable for stain removal.
NOTE: Always read the cautionary information on all cleaners prior to use!
IMPORTANT: Never push, pull or drag furniture, appliances or other items across the oor. When moving furniture or heavy items,
always lift and carry the items. Place hardboards between the ooring and object to move.
