Did you know that carpet is the biggest air filter in the home? Just like any other air filter, carpet prevents dander allergens and pollutants from re-entering the air. “Unlike smooth floor surfaces that allow dust and other allergens to recirculate into the breathing zone, properly maintained carpet actually contributes to improved air quality.”

Deep cleaning your carpets is a major part of a proper maintenance plan to help your carpet function as an effective air filter. It is common to deep clean carpets when there are visible stains; however, it is best to maintain the cleanliness of a carpet even if there are no stains visible on the surface. Rug Doctor has superior spot and stain removal from carpet and upholstery and refreshes soft surfaces to give them a “like new” look and smell.

While appearance and smell are some of the main reasons for deep cleaning carpets, there is another important reason. Carpets that are effectively cleaned cut down on dander allergens. Unlike other air filters, carpets are not easily replaced, as it can be very expensive and time-consuming. Vacuuming alone is simply not enough.

An effective way to remove dust, pollen, dander, and other pollutants trapped deep within the carpet fibers is to thoroughly wash and extract with a powerful deep carpet cleaner. Renting a Rug Doctor Deep Carpet Cleaner is ideal for washing your carpets without having to hire a carpet cleaning service.

Not only will your carpets smell great and look spotless, but you will also be able to breathe a little easier. Visit our store locator to find a rental location near you.
