Your Carpeting is the Biggest Filter in Your Home

is a Big Filter

When you were selecting the carpet in your home, you may not have thought much about how carpet contributes to your family's health and well-being. Perhaps you were thinking style, color, and durability. However, one of the greatest, but often overlooked benefits of carpet is its contribution to healthier indoor air quality.

Your carpet is the biggest filter in your home. Just like your air conditioning filter that filters out airborne soils that pass through it, your carpet does the same thing. And during the fall and winter months when your windows are rarely opened, it becomes a bigger issue.

Carpeting absorbs tracked in soil like dirt, asphalt, pollens, insecticides, bacterial matter, and fungus. This can be clearly seen with “filtration soiling”. The black lines that appear on light colored carpet around the base boards, under the doors and around cool air returns is called “filtration soiling”.

The filtering process that your carpet provides keeps those soils from becoming airborne. These soils are trapped in the carpet. They are then removed with regular vacuuming and regular professional cleaning.

If you do not clean your carpet on a regular basis, the filter becomes full. Would you leave your air conditioning filters for years on end without replacing them or cleaning them? No. The cleaning industry at large has not done a good job of educating the public about these kinds of issues; therefore many consumers are uninformed of the impact.

Not maintaining your carpet not only leaves it exposed to permanent traffic area damage and permanent staining, but it contributes to an unhealthy indoor environment.

As a certified carpet cleaning company, we can keep this filter on your floor in tip top shape. Our main advantage can be found in our 8-Step Cleaning Process. Each of our highly, trained technicians follow this process to remove damaging soil in traffic areas that your vacuum can no longer handle. As you will see, the result is a far superior and thoroughly clean carpet or area rug that will make you think it was brand new. We guarantee it!

The first step is to perform a free carpet audit. This inspection process will determine the type of cleaning method that is most suitable for your home. From the results, together we can determine the best techniques to return your carpet to peak condition. To get started, call 734-878-3702 to schedule your appointment online today.
