Frequently Asked Questions
How do you prevent a robotic vacuum from falling down stairs?
The best way to prevent a robotic vacuum from falling down stairs is to install virtual walls or boundaries to create a perimeter. These virtual walls or boundaries will emit infrared signals that the robotic vacuum will recognize and use to detect where it is allowed to go and where it is not. Additionally, some robotic vacuums have sensors built-in to detect stairs and other obstacles, which can help to further prevent the vacuum from falling down stairs.
Can you use a robotic vacuum in a home with small children or pets?
Yes, robotic vacuums are safe to use in homes with small children or pets. However, some models are more suitable than others. For example, robotic vacuums with a containment system can help prevent your pet from accessing the moving parts of the vacuum. Additionally, some robotic vacuums feature sensors that can detect objects in their path and avoid them, which can help prevent accidental damage to your child's toys or other items.
How much dust can a robot vacuum hold?
No matter the model of robot vacuum you buy and no matter the price, the basic dust capacity is rather low. You will need to empty it more frequently than your regular vacuum cleaner. The most sophisticated models do have a self-emptying feature, which enables them to empty themselves into a larger bin at the docking station.
How do you clean the charging dock or base of a robotic vacuum?
To clean the charging dock or base of a robotic vacuum, you should use a soft, wet cloth or microfiber cloth to wipe down the surface and remove any dust or dirt. You can also use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to clean the dock or base. To disinfect the surface, you can use a mild detergent or a mixture of vinegar and water. Make sure to dry the charging dock or base thoroughly before plugging the robot in for charging.
