How Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Can Reduce Allergies
Allergy Can Diminish
The U.S. National Center for Health Statistics cites that one in three individuals suffer from allergies, asthma, bronchitis or sinusitis. High levels of dust mite allergens trapped in the carpets and upholstery can either trigger the development of allergies or can encourage them to worsen over time.
There are many other common household allergens besides dust mites that can worsen symptoms such as dust, mold, pet dander, and even the appearance of cockroaches. One of the best ways to improve allergy concerns is to professionally clean your carpets and furniture on a regular basis in order to decrease the amount of harmless synthetic chemicals that are used in your home environment. This goes for the work environment as well.
Be aware that dust mites cannot be completely eliminated from an environment but routine professional cleaning can keep them to a level that is manageable for everyone involved.
Small Changes, Big Improvement
Making small changes to your cleaning routine can make a difference in terms of the health of your family members and even your pets that are affected by harmful allergens as well. If carpets and upholstery are cleaned regularly, this will work as a form of allergy control in the home. It is also advisable to not bring any synthetic chemicals into your home whether for the purposes of the regular cleaning you do yourself or when you have a professional cleaning company such as Flat Rate Carpet in New York and New Jersey come in to clean your home.
It is recommended that you have your carpets and upholstery professionally cleaned every 6 to 12 months. Make sure that your carpet cleaning and your upholstery cleaning takes the form of non-toxic cleaning and the use of biodegradable cleaning products are strongly recommended.
When it comes to upholstery, allergy reduction can only take place if the surfaces of furniture, as well as cushions, are vacuumed on a weekly basis (and more often if you have cats or dogs ) and professionally cleaned at least every 6 months.
Regular professional upholstery cleaning is a must should you wish to keep harmful allergens to a minimum.
