Why Hiring Professional Carpet Cleaners Is Good for Your Health

Your carpet can harbor health risks if not maintained properly. Most of the health risks from carpets depend on the maintenance process and the age of the carpet. Old carpets are much more hazardous than new ones since some of them contain products that have been banned from more recent production, years of accumulated dust, chemical cleaning products, paint fumes and dust mites among others. Did you know that a carpet could hold up to eight times its weight in dust and dirt?

Dirty carpets are one of the biggest contributors to deterioration of indoor air quality. These poorly maintained carpets are responsible for causing allergies in people who have allergic reactions to bio-pollutants such as fungi, bacteria, and mites. Respiratory problems can also be aggravated by the condition of your carpets. From a health perspective, it is extremely difficult to justify having a carpet indoors if you do not have a professional cleaning company maintaining the carpet.

Studies show that the accumulation of dust and dirt in the carpet is due to vacuuming using ineffective equipment as the only method of cleaning. It does not matter how much you spent on that new deluxe home vacuum cleaner, it is only good for removing surface dirt. To get rid of the bacteria and grime lodged deep in the carpet fibers, you need professional carpet cleaners in Southhampton.

You spend a lot of time on the floor, sometimes playing with the kids or the house pet, or even having a quick snooze. This up and close contact with the dirty carpet increases your exposure to all the health risks associated with it. Having a clean carpet, especially during winter is a must. Some medical authorities insist that carpets should not be installed indoors unless you plan to have a frequent professional cleaning service.

Instead of getting rid of all the carpets in your home, professional carpet cleaning is the middle ground between aesthetic expectations and keeping your house health hazard free. The benefits of having a carpet in your home are way more than just aesthetical value anyway; it is an expression of style, luxury, thermal insulation and can help to reduce noise.

The professional carpet cleaners have strong cleaning equipment and solutions that can remove the dirt, dust and bacteria deeply embedded in the carpet fibers to make your home cleaner, safer and health hazard free.
