It's fairly easy to take our carpets and rugs for granted. Carpets create wonderful warmth, texture and softness in our homes. With proper care and maintenance they help our indoor air quality and the overall cleanliness of the home. Carpets should be vacuumed frequently and cleaned regularly.
Carpets are a vital, essential part of our way of life. Carpeting can be found in just about every Utah residential, commercial and industrial property today. Therefore, keeping your carpets clean is necessary to maintain your carpets and to have a healthy indoor environment.
The first (and most obvious) reason to clean your carpets is because of the appearance. Clean floors make everything look better. When you have company over you want them to see a clean house, including floors and carpets. A clean carpet shows people that you care about your home and that you take pride in its appearance.
The second reason is that a cleaner carpet just lasts longer. Dirt is abrasive and can ruin your carpet. Every step you take grinds the soil into your carpet fibers. This permanently damages the carpet, causing it to wear out quicker. Vacuuming frequently and regular cleanings helps to maintain your carpet and helps to last longer.
The last reason is for the health and wellbeing of you and other occupants in your property. Clean carpets are healthier. You wouldn't want kids crawling around on dirty carpets. Carpets are like giant filters for your home. They trap dust and dirt, keeping it out of the air. These filters are like any other filters and need to be cleaned regularly. Once a filter is full of dirt, it stops improving your air quality and starts hurting it.
As you can see there are many reasons to clean your carpets regularly.
The longest anyone wants to go between carpet cleanings is one year. Even if a carpet gets no traffic it is subject to dust and other environmental contaminants. You should clean the carpets in your home every year if you have only one or two people in your home with no pets and no smokers. If you meet these conditions, clean your carpets once a year.
The next interval is once every nine months. Clean your carpets every nine months if you have children or pets, or if your household has one or two whom are smokers.
Clean your carpets every six to nine months if you have kids, pets and/or smokers in the family. The combinations of these factors make more frequent carpet cleaning necessary.
Finally there is the three month interval. This is for homes that have pets, kids and smokers. If this is the case three months is recommended, as these factors are rough on the carpet and your home.
Use these intervals as guidelines. Every home is different. You might be able to go longer between cleanings if you have a lot of hard surfaces in the home. You also might have to clean the carpet more often if you live in a dusty environment, or according to your preferences and standards. This should give you enough information to make a general decision about when to clean your carpets. Utah Carpet Cleaning is always available via phone or form contact.

“Thank you for an excellent job as promised. Your technicians arrived at the scheduled time, moved our furniture as needed in a professional and courteous manner, and cleaned our carpets very thoroughly.

“I’ve had carpets cleaned before, and by far, you guys were so much better. I can clearly tell the difference, whereas I couldn’t really tell with those other cleaners. I also appreciate the consideration shown by your technicians. They really went the extra mile to make sure I was completely satisfied with their work.”
