Cleaning carpets is not just about appearance, but also a health issue…

According to the Environmental Protection Agency in the US, indoor air quality is one of the top five most urgent environmental risks to public health. Especially in the winter, when buildings are insulated against the cold, indoor air is often two to five times more polluted than the air outside.

Further to this the American Lung Association is seeking to educate the public about the benefits of healthy indoor air quality. Cleaning carpets is not just about appearance, but also a health issue.

Case studies have shown that regular steam carpet cleaning on an annual basis coupled with a regular vacuming regimen, can help to transform a ‘sick building’ into a more healthy environment, thus reducing illness due to respiratory-related problems.
