Why Does Water Keep Getting Under My Car Carpets

I just kept smooshing the carpet with the vaccum tool until no more water squeezed out.

Why does water keep getting under my car carpets.

Carpet exposed to standing water will quickly be ruined. Pry up the carpet at least partially and keep stuffing chamois towels and terry towels under there to absorb for a while. If standing water ever occurs because of a leak or a spill all carpeting exposed must be immediately cleaned and dried. You will be amazed what you will find when you look for it.

The moisture under your carpet has to come from somewhere and that somewhere is almost undoubtedly the air conditioning system. The top and bottom surfaces of the carpet any padding and the floor underneath must be cleaned and completely dried within a short period of time after exposure to. Afterwards you may need to use some moisture reducing products to get any remaining water out of your car. The easiest way to get the moisture or water out of your carpet is by removing it with a wet vacuum.

Wet vac lots of car washes and some gas stations have coin operated ones. Follow these steps for drying your carpet properly and preventing the spread of moisture and mildew. If you have an idea of where the water is getting into the car check for water marks stains or even signs of rust. A wet carpet is not the only sign of water leaking in a car.

Take a close look at connectors for corrosion and check brackets for rust spots.
