Preventative Measures For Healthy Carpet

Carpet owners are always concerned about how they can protect their carpets from getting dirty. No matter how carefully you use them, they do get dirty with our heavy foot traffic and different spills. However, there are ways by which you can keep your carpets clean and shiny. When your carpet looks dirty or dull, you may think that it's because of too much dirt, but the main reason is that dirt has embedded deeply inside the fibers, damaging their integrity and fading away their color. Here are some of the simple ways to maintain the cleanliness of your carpets:

• Use mats: Placing mats or runners outside and inside of the home helps reduce dirt from entering, keeping your carpets cleaner.
• Take off Your Shoes: Have everyone wear shoes or socks before coming inside and avoid the carpet from getting dirty and worn.
• Change Air Filter: Clean your furnace filters regularly, at least every 3 to 4 weeks, because cleaning air means less dirt and dust setting into your carpets.
• Schedule Professional Cleaning: We recommend you have your carpets professionally cleaned within 6–12 months because it maintains the carpet's top condition.
