Artificial Grass Maintenance: How To Clean Artificial Grass Guide

One of the most appealing features of synthetic turf is that it does not require the amount of care and maintenance a natural grass lawn must have. Never again will you need to fertilize, mow, aerate or waste huge amounts of water to have green grass surrounding your home.
However, this does not mean that artificial turf is completely maintenance free; to keep your synthetic grass looking its best and to get the most enjoyment out of your investment, you will need to perform a bit of regular cleaning and maintenance.
How to Clean and Maintain Artificial Grass
How often you need to perform artificial grass maintenance tasks will depend on your particular situation. For example, if you have outdoor pets, children, or lots of trees and shrubs, you will likely need to clean your synthetic lawn more often than homeowners who do not have these factors at play. If you live in a particularly dusty area, this may also prompt you to rinse down your fake lawn more often.
Conversely, during rainy months, you can allow the rain to wash your lawn and may not need to spray it down as often. Because of the various factors that make your situation unique, consider the following maintenance schedule suggestion and amend it to best suit your needs.
Weekly Artificial Lawn Maintenance
Most homeowners will need to lightly rinse down their synthetic lawns once per week. Spraying down the grass fibers with a hose will remove dust and other small debris that has accumulated between washings.
Monthly Artificial Lawn Maintenance
A more thorough synthetic grass cleaning, performed on a monthly basis, will help keep your lawn green, clean and inviting.
How To Perform Monthly Artificial Grass Maintenance
Remove dust, dirt and leaves with a stiff brush.
Use a broom or handled brush and sweep against the natural grain of the grass to groom it into an upright position.
To remove dust, dirt, leaves and other debris, use a flexible lawn rake, a broom with stiff bristles or a stiff brush. If you choose to use a stiff brush, make sure you do not choose one with steel bristles, which could damage the fake grass.
Cleaning your grass in this manner is also an effective way to maintain the upright position of each blade. Keep in mind that you may need to perform this level of maintenance more often if you have pets or during seasons when trees and shrubs lose their leaves or bloom.

Once you have thoroughly cleaned your grass, you may find that it is not standing as upright as you would like. You may also notice that your grass is not erect in certain areas after you, a family member or pet has lain on it. This is easy to fix by simply grooming your lawn by using a broom or handled brush to brush against the natural grain to encourage each blade of artificial grass to stand up properly. Regular grooming also prevents matting and keeps your lawn’s infill from compacting.
