Indoor Air Quality

Cleaning your rugs, upholstery, and carpeting not only helps to improve the appearance of your home and prolong the life of your floor coverings and furniture but perhaps the most valuable benefit from the cleaning process is improving your indoor air quality.
According to the American Lung Association, if members of your household suffer from conditions that can affect their breathing, such as snoring or asthma, it is especially crucial that you vacuum your carpets at least three times a week. Vacuuming alone will not get it all, you should also have your carpets, rugs and upholstery steam/ hot water extracted at least once a year.
If you are not fully convinced of the benefits of professional carpet, rug and upholstery cleaning, consider the following ways the process leads to improving your indoor air quality.
Eliminate trapped contaminants.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, a dirty carpet can retain several sources of indoor air pollutants, including pet dander, allergens, lead, particle pollution, and everyday dirt and dust. Toxic airborne gases can adhere to these particles and also get trapped within the carpet. These toxic gases can be released through everyday activities such as vacuuming and walking across the carpet, which can cause them to contaminate the air in your home.
Professional carpet cleaning services kills these bacteria through high heat and/or cleaning formulas and can remove deeply trapped pollutants with high-powered vacuuming. We believe the same holds true for your upholstery. Your furniture takes almost as much a beating as your carpet.
Clear out dust mite infestations.
There are many homes that have dust mite infestations, yet most people are not aware of the infestation, because the creatures are microscopic. Dust mites themselves are not allergens, but they often leave behind feces and body fragments which are. Because these particles are microscopic in size, when the area is disturbed they can easily be inhaled , which can exacerbate allergies. Our steam/hot water extraction process for carpet, rug, upholstery and even your mattress will expose dust mites to a high temperatures they can not survive in. Deep Cleaning Video
