Regular professional cleaning is as important to your carpet as having a trained mechanic perform routine maintenance on your car. Vacuuming and spot cleaning alone doesn't properly clean your carpet. Carpets have the ability to trap and hold airborne and household particles as well as most chemicals and dirt walked in on your shoes from outside.. Eventually these chemicals become a hazardous part of house dust along with particles from the carpet fibers themselves.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has performed studies showing that chemically contaminated carpet dust can be a significant source of chemical exposure for infants, toddlers, seniors and family pets. Not only are they more susceptible to the unhealthy affects of low-level exposure to chemicals, toddlers also tend to be exposed to a higher level of chemicals from carpet dust because they frequently put their hands in their mouths as they explore the world around them.
A well maintained and cleaned carpet can help eliminate chronic sinus and allergic health concerns for you and your family, while at the same time extending the life of your carpet. Furthermore, a well designed and built vacuum cleaner is essential in your home maintenance plan in addition to regular cleanings by professional carpet cleaners using non-toxic cleaning solutions.
