Health Benefits Associated with Professional Carpet Cleaning

Toilet The carpet cleaning process used by us here at Clean Living not only improves the appearance of your home and extends the life of your carpet, but also assists in improving your and your family’s health. Research shows that if members of your family suffer from conditions that can affect their breathing, such as asthma, emphysema or pneumonia, it is especially important that you vacuum your carpets regularly, at least three times a week. In addition to regular vacuuming, you may also benefit from having your carpets professionally cleaned annually. If you’re not fully convinced of the benefits of professional carpet cleaning, consider the following top three ways the process leads to a healthier home:

1. Carpet cleaning eliminates trapped pollutants.

Research shows that a dirty carpet can retain several sources of indoor air pollutants, including pet hairs, lead, pollution as well as 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. Clean Living's professional carpet cleaning services kills these bacteria by using a citrus-based cleaning solution and high-powered suction that flush out and remove deeply embeded pollutants.

2. Carpet cleaning can clear out dust mite infestations.

Many homes have dust mite infestations, yet most homeowners aren’t aware of the problem because the creatures are microscopic. Dust mites themselves aren’t allergens, but they often leave behind faeces and body fragments which are. Because of the microscopic size of these particles, they can easily be inhaled when the area is disturbed, which can worsen allergies. Here at Clean Living we use a technique commonly known as 'steam cleaning' when performing carpet cleaning work, which exposes your carpet to softened water at high temperatures in which dust mites can’t survive.

3. Carpet cleaning can help prevent mold growth.

Dirty carpets are at a high risk of developing mould growth when exposed to moisture in the atmosphere. In precipitous weather, moisture frequently gets trecked into the home and can sink deep in the carpet fibers if not dried and vacuumed immediately. Having your carpet cleaned regularly, by us here at Clean Living, can prevent mould and mildew growth, because professional carpet cleaners have high-powered drying tools that annihilate moisture. By eliminating moisture, you can prevent mould growth that can be harmful to your health.
