Default Carpet Cleaning

We have a new 2 year old townhome that has standard carpet installed.
We upgraded the pad but not the carpet.

There are no kids or pets in the house and we vacuum it on-and-off
(not regularly).

Now I find that in areas of high usage, the carpet looks awfully old
(other areas look much much better).

Is there a way to rejuvenate the carpet. I hear horror stories of
shampoo based cleaning. Would steam vacuum bring it back to life?


Try a spray upholstery foam, let sit a moment and scrub with a nylon
brush. Vacuum..

Not as harsh as carpet cleaners.
