Use a Hard Surface Vacuum to Clean Floors Before Mopping

Dirt Devil Tip: Many wood flooring companies provide specific wood floor cleaning guidelines. While it may seem like you can use any type of wood floor cleaning process or solution, it's not always a good idea to deviate from the manufacturer's guidelines. Ignoring these guidelines and measures may not only harm the floor’s finish, but void the warranty. If your floors require cleaning with a hard surface vacuum, consider one that is lightweight and has a soft brush that won't scratch the surface.
