The Environmental Protection Agency lists poor indoor air quality as the fourth largest environmental threat to our country.
Carpet actually promotes better indoor air quality because it naturally traps particles that fall to the floor. Dust, animal dander, cooking oils, and other contaminates all go into your carpet over time. While removing shoes at the door is desirable and helps prevent tracking in large amounts of soil and petroleum products, it doesn’t prevent carpet from becoming dirty.
It is important to get a professional carpet cleaning every 12 to 18 months, which will greatly reduce the contaminates and improve the air quality of your home.
