If you want to keep them looking there best especially in high traffic area, they should be vacuumed or dry mopped / swept daily to remove debris that could cause scratches. Any spills should by wiped up immediately to prevent stains or any leaking between panels. Throw rugs and door mats help to protect by catching dirt and grit that can be damaging. Well be talking more about how to make your LVP floor last for decades.
CLEANING
MATERIALS NEEDED:
1) Remove Loose Debris
Begin by sweeping or vacuuming the floor to remove any dust and debris. Any left behind could potentially damage or scratch your flooring if stepped on with a hard sole. Be sure to disengage the beater bar on your vacuum to avoid any unnecessary damage.
2) Choosing the Right Cleaning Solution
There are many commercial cleaners out there that work well to clean your LVP floors, but before putting any solution down, be sure to read the label to make sure it is LVP floor safe.
If desired, you could make a solution out of things you most likely have around the home that will clean your floors without causing your floors any harm. Mix liquid dishwasher detergent or dish soap that includes a degreaser in a bucket of warm water and there you go, your own floor cleaner on the cheap. Be careful, all you need is a few drops. Too many suds could result in a film buildup on your floor, additionally attracting more dirt.
3) Start that Mop
Go ahead and dip that mop into your solution, wring out most of the moisture so none is dripping. Start at the corner of the room leaving yourself an exit point, set the mop on the floor and start wiping in a gentle, back-and-forth motion. Be sure to rinse and wring your mop frequently as dirt will build up and transfer back onto the floor.
If you didn’t use excess soap, no rinse is needed. However, if you do feel any stickiness in your floors change the solution to clean warm water, rinse the mop throughly and give your floors one more wipe down. Let floors air dry.
WARNING!
Avoid using any abrasive scrubbing pads on your LVP floors. This can dull the floors causing dirt to stick and stain more often.

*Sweeping once a day is the single most valuable thing you can do to keep your LVP floors looking as good as new.
