Of all the features in a home or business, the carpet can experience some of the most considerable foot traffic often leading to an accelerated life span. If you want your carpet to stand the test of time (and feet) it is important to keep it cleaned and well maintained regularly. Many believe that the single benefit of carpet cleaning is to remove unwanted dirt and stains from fibers, but the advantages of cleaning a carpet go way beyond simple dirt removal.
Extend the life of your carpet
One major financial benefit of regular carpet maintenance is preserving the longevity of your carpet. Over time, carpets accumulate major amounts of dust, dirt, allergens and other unwanted substances causing the fibers to permanently stain or lose shape. Decreasing the build-up of debris 1-2 times a week can keep your carpet looking vibrant and fresh. This is especially important for business because of concerns with safety and overall customer satisfaction.
Create a healthier environment
One of the unrecognized benefits of cleaning your rugs and carpets is increased air quality. Some of the dust and dirt trapped in the fibers of a carpet can find their way into the breathing air of those around it. This can be an issue everywhere but especially in places such as schools and offices where increased focus is of utmost priority. Keeping your carpet dust free can lead to increased productivity and an overall healthier environment.
Reduce “Traffic lane effect”
Some specific areas of carpet, such as entrance ways, hallways and living rooms experience more traffic than others. Since these areas attract the most activity, they often are the first areas to show wear and tear, leaving the less used areas looking significantly different. This traffic lane effect can cause a huge eyesore and ruin the overall appearance of the room.
Carpets are usually the centerpiece of our homes and commercial places. Carpeting is not just limited to the enhancement of beauty; there are many important benefits that are connected to our health indirectly. Keeping the areas you walk on the most can be a direct indication of the environment around you.
