Haelanor Teal Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug

Details at a Glance

UV-stabilized polyester handles sun exposure on a covered patio or deck without fading, and you can throw the entire rug in a washing machine when spills or pet accidents happen. The Addison Rugs Haelanor Teal Washable Indoor-Outdoor Rug with geometric rectangles is available at LOOMLAN Outdoor with free shipping. The ultra-thin flat weave dries in two to three hours after rain or washing, so mildew never takes hold the way it does in thick-pile rugs.

How Does UV-Stabilized Polyester Resist Fading Outdoors?

The polyester fibers are treated with UV stabilizers that prevent sun damage from breaking down the color molecules inside the material. You'll see the same teal shade after years on a sunny patio or in a room with big south-facing windows. Polyester doesn't absorb moisture, so rain or spills sit on the surface instead of soaking through, which is why the rug dries so fast and won't develop the mildew smell that natural fiber rugs get when wet.

Can You Machine Wash This Rug at Home?

Yes -- throw it in a standard washing machine with cold water and mild detergent for a full deep clean in under an hour. The flat weave construction holds up to repeated washing without pilling or fraying the way loop-pile rugs do. Hang the rug or lay it flat after washing; it'll be dry in two to three hours because the ultra-thin profile (less than a quarter inch) has almost no material to hold water.

Will the Non-Skid Backing Stay Put on Wet Decking?

The integrated non-skid backing grips tile, hardwood, and composite decking without a separate rug pad, even when the surface is damp. You won't need to readjust it after rain or when you hose down a patio. The stain-resistant polyester repels spills without absorbing them, so pet accidents and food spills wipe off instead of soaking in and creating odors that require enzymatic cleaners.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can an outdoor rug get wet?

Yes -- this polyester rug dries in two to three hours after rain or washing because the ultra-thin flat weave doesn't hold water the way thick-pile rugs do.

How do I clean an outdoor rug?

Machine wash it with cold water and mild detergent, then hang or lay flat to dry. The polyester resists stains, so most spills wipe off before you even need to wash.

Can this stay outside all year?

The UV-stabilized polyester resists sun fading on a covered patio, but you'll extend its life by storing it rolled indoors during prolonged freezing weather or heavy snow.

Will the teal color fade in direct sun?

The UV stabilizers prevent fading for years in sun exposure, though a covered patio or partial shade will keep the color sharpest longest.

Which size works under a dining table?

The 5 ft. x 7 ft. 6 in. size fits under tables seating four; the 8 ft. x 10 ft. or 9 ft. x 12 ft. sizes work for larger tables with 18 to 24 inches of exposed floor around all sides.

Does this rug need a separate pad underneath?

No -- the non-skid backing eliminates the need for a rug pad on tile, hardwood, or composite decking.
