Spills and messes easily stay on top of the carpet fiber and won’t seep deep. This gives you time to simply wipe away the mess.
Fact 1: Carpet can help you breathe easier.
It’s a common misconception that carpet can adversely affect allergy and asthma sufferers. Carpet is one of the lowest emitters of VOCs (volatile organic compounds) among household furnishings and building materials. It acts as a trap for allergens and is capable of holding significant quantities of soil, dust and other substances. The carpet holds on to the particles until you are ready to remove them.
Regular vacuuming, using a high-efficiency filter and periodic hot-water extractions, removes the majority of allergens. Shaw Floors recommends using a high efficiency particulate air filter (or HEPA filter) vacuum for your home.
Fact 2: Carpets are easy to clean.
Carpet often gets a bad reputation for staining but simple steps can extend the life of your carpet and keep it looking new. Vacuuming your carpet frequently is the best thing you can do to help maintain its beautiful appearance over time. Vacuuming removes soil before it gets below the surface, where it is far more difficult to remove. Shaw Floors recommends that carpet is thoroughly cleaned every 12 to 18 months by hot water extraction. Professional carpet cleaners generally get the best results.
