Blind spots that robot vacuums cannot clean.

Robot vacuums have difficulty cleaning under cabinets and narrow dead spots. 壹家壹清潔專家 assists in handling areas that the robot cannot reach, ensuring deep cleaning.

Robot vacuums are limited by their body design and obstacle avoidance systems and cannot clean low cabinet bottoms, wiring joints, or wall corners. Please keep these areas ventilated and perform manual cleaning regularly. If deep stains or mold are involved, it is recommended to hire a professional team to handle it.

Limitations of robot vacuums

Although robot vacuums are convenient, their circular design and obstacle avoidance settings make it difficult for them to reach deep into narrow spaces, such as under the sofa, high cabinet corners, behind bedroom doors, and corners filled with wires.

Strategies for handling dead corners

Areas that machines cannot reach accumulate large amounts of micro-dander and dirt over time, which require manual handling with professional tools.

  1. Check under the sofa and high cabinets regularly and use a vacuum cleaner to suck away accumulated dust.
  2. Straighten the layout of wires on the floor to reduce the machine's obstacle avoidance dead corners.
  3. For stubborn oil smoke on tile grout or kitchen cabinet surfaces, use appropriate cleaning agents to wipe them off.

Deep stain removal and professional cleaning

Besides cleaning dead corners, dust mites in the inner layers of carpets and mold in crevices require deep cleaning processes with physical temperature control and chemical formulas to be removed.

When handling moldy materials, you can follow US Environmental Protection Agency's home mold prevention recommendations(opens in a new window)treatment and note the on-site and material restrictions.

FAQ

Why does the robot avoid certain locations?

How to deal with mold that the robot cannot clean?
Robot vacuums can only perform surface cleaning. For mold generated in damp areas, you must first remove the dirt, ensure it is dry, and use appropriate cleaning agents for treatment.
