A Tip a Day - Large-Area Floor Cleaning

Large-Area Floor Cleaning — “Zone Mopping + From Inside Out” to Avoid Recontamination

Pain Point: 

In large areas like living rooms and bedrooms, the floor gets re-soiled halfway through mopping, making all your effort wasted.

Technique:

Follow a “room zoning” approach (e.g., bedroom first, then living room; inner areas before doorways). After mopping one zone, place a clean mat at the entrance to prevent stepping back onto cleaned areas.

Use a large-sized mop (e.g., 60cm width) and follow a “Z-shaped” path (maximizes coverage, minimizes repetition). Rinse the mop head every 3-4 meters to prevent spreading dirt.

Pro Tip:

For large areas, use two buckets for “wet/clean separation”—one for rinsing the mop head, one for rinsing it clean. This keeps the mop head fresher.
