It is no news that robotic vacuums and mops have seamlessly integrated smart technology into our floor-cleaning routines, saving us countless hours and effort. These smart devices are getting more and more popular thanks to their hassle-free cleaning experience.

Many people prefer adding a cleaning solution when mopping with traditional mops, whether it's a pre-mixed solution or homemade ones like vinegar and bleach. These solutions help remove stains and disinfect the floor, killing germs on the surface to maintain cleanliness and hygiene. When it comes to smart vacuum and mops, a frequently asked question is: Can you put cleaning solution in an automatic vacuum mop? The simple answer is yes, but it's vital to choose the correct cleaning solution to avoid any damage to both the machine and the floors. With a wide array of flooring materials available today, from beautiful patterned tiles to cozy hardwood and carpets, it's important to understand which cleaning solution is best for each type. Let’s navigate the right choices for cleaning solutions in robot mops, and how to properly use them with the machine, ensuring both optimal performance and longevity.

Why You Need To Choose the Right Cleaning Solution?

Selecting the appropriate cleaning solution for your smart vacuum and mop is essential for several reasons. Manufacturers often recommend specific types of cleaning solutions for their devices - this is not just a marketing strategy; these recommendations are based on the unique design and materials used in the device. The wrong solution can lead to damage or reduced efficiency, and in some cases, using an incorrect solution might even void the warranty if repairs are needed.

The correct cleaning solution ensures that your automatic vacuum mop operates smoothly without clogging or corroding. This means it can continue to efficiently handle everything from tangled hair and stains to debris and dust.

On the other hand, different flooring types in your home may require specialized cleaning solutions, particularly when dealing with plush carpets and rugs. Stains can penetrate deep into carpet fibers, therefore specific solutions are required for effective removal. Pick the right tools for your auto vacuum and mop!

Best DEEBOT Robot Vacuums

DEEBOT X2 OMNI

DEEBOT X2 OMNI not only features a brand-new, sleek square design but is also equipped with industry-leading technology. This robotic vacuum and mop boast a maximum suction of 8,000 Pa1, the most powerful in today's market, and it is coupled with the powerful OZMO Turbo 2.0 Rotating Mopping system and a 15mm intelligent mop lifting function. Using a chenille fabric mop, the unique mopping system applies consistent pressure to the floor for deep cleaning, easily tackling any stubborn stains. Using ultrasonic sound, the smart mop lifts when it detects a carpet or passes through a clean area, while the suction power is maximized from mopping mode to vacuum mode. It handles complex indoor environments with ease.

DEEBOT T20 OMNI

DEEBOT T20 OMNI, being the first model in the DEEBOT series to introduce the auto-lift mopping function, is an advanced robot vacuum and mop for your home. Other than a maximum suction power of 6,000Pa 2 and an upgraded rubber brush with spiralling blades for effective agitation, its OZMO Turbo pressurized spinning mop provides a better scrub and clean for your floors than flat and vibrating mops, ensuring dirt and dust stuck in floor crevices and carpets are efficiently removed. You can even rely on it to clean itself with the all-in-one OMNI station. It empties the dustbin, washes the mop with hot water to dissolve oil and dirt, and dries it with hot air, making it ready for the next cleaning session without you lifting a finger.

DEEBOT N10 PLUS

If you're looking for a budget-friendly smart vacuum mop, the DEEBOT N10 PLUS offers comprehensive performance without straining your wallet. Boasting a maximum suction power of 4,300Pa3, this model features a floating main brush designed to maximize floor contact for deep cleaning while preventing damage. The rubber brush is ideal for homes with long pet hair and carpets, as it effectively stirs carpets to release more dirt and flicks dust into the vacuum stream. Upgraded from the old, messy drip systems, its OZMO Mopping System employs a precision micro-water pump to prevent leaks and over-wetting of floors. With four levels of water flow, you can customize the settings to suit your needs. It also smartly "sees" and avoids carpets using ultrasonic sensors, and automatically increases suction power when vacuuming carpets.

Types of Cleaning Solutions Suitable for Robot Mops

When browsing the internet, you may have come across DIY homemade cleaning solutions like mixing vinegar or bleach with water. Although these are made from natural materials, they are not recommended for use in auto vacuums and mops as they can harm and corrode the internal parts.

For automatic vacuums and mops, water is usually the best cleaner as it's essential for the actual cleaning process, helping to remove stubborn stains. The cleaning solution is basically used to enhance cleaning efficiency.

Before adding any cleaning solution to your smart device, it's important to research and read the label to ensure it's suitable for robot mops. For DEEBOT users, the good news is: the DEEBOT Cleaning Solution (1L or 110ml) is compatible with models including X2 OMNI, X1 OMNI, X1 TURBO, T20 OMNI, and T10 OMNI. It's specifically formulated for effective floor cleaning and stain removal.

Featuring a professional, low-foam, and low-corrosion formula, it tackles common stains like coffee and juice. Thoroughly tested by ECOVACS for safety and effectiveness, it's safe for hard floor surfaces including wood and tile. Plus, this non-toxic solution, with multiple certifications, leaves a light, refreshing floral scent, ensuring your space is clean and pleasantly fragrant.

Maintenance Tips for Robot Mops

Robotic vacuums and mops are not cheap, and we all want to use them as much as possible. Here are our main tips for keeping your auto mop at its optimal performance.

Start by using proper cleaning solutions recommended by the manufacturer. Inappropriate solutions, such as harsh chemicals or DIY mixes, can damage both the device and your floors.

Aside from this, regular maintenance checkups are vital. This includes cleaning and unclogging brushes, belts, and other parts to ensure they run smoothly during the cleaning process. Don't overlook the filters, either. They are designed to trap fine dust and allergens, so regularly inspect and clean them to prevent micro particles from being released back into the air. Another key aspect is to regularly empty the dustbin, even if your model has a large dust bag. Overstuffing can lead to unpleasant odours and might be the reason your automatic vacuum isn't picking up dust.

If your robot mop encounters issues that you're not sure how to fix, it's best to bring it to the manufacturer for professional repairs. This prevents further damage that might occur if you attempt DIY repairs. Remember, a little care goes a long way in preserving the functionality and efficiency of your smart cleaning partner.
