Most people think of aesthetic benefits when it comes to carpet cleaning; you can hugely improve the appearance of your home and give it a refreshed and rejuvenated look. But another set of benefits not often considered is the health benefits brought by professional carpet cleaning; carpets end up holding a huge number of pollutants, germs, dirt, and dust. These cause illnesses, agitate allergies and have the potential to cause breathing issues.
By going with Acorn Carpet Cleaning, you can ensure your carpets are not only given a brand-new look and rejuvenated appearance, but you can also help counter the issues posed by dirt and grime that builds up in a carpet to your health. In this article we’ll discuss some of the health benefits offered by professional carpet cleaning.
Clearing out trapped Pollutants
Carpets overtime will trap a huge number of indoor air pollutants. These are a mix of gasses and toxic particles which will end up filling the air of your home. Some of the common pollutants that are trapped in carpets include,
- Pollen
- Dust
- Dust mite allergens
- Cockroach allergens
- Mould Spores
- Animal/Pet Dander
- Skin cells
These cause a slew of problems for our health. Including,
Allergies
Mould, Dust, Pollen, Dust mites, Cockroaches, and Pet Dander all cause allergic reactions. These can include irritation to the nose and face, sneezing, issues with breathing and skin irritation.
Respiratory Issues
The build-up of dust and pollen in a carpet, as well as mould spores can easily end up resulting in breathing issues and in some cases even result in the development of asthma. There’s been suggestions that Dust mites can cause serious issues for people with Asthma.
Air Quality
Pollutants have a long-term impact on the air quality of your home; the gasses released by the build-up of pollutants will not only create a smell, but make rooms feel stuffier and has the potential to add to existing respiratory problems.
Standard cleaning can’t do much to handle trapped Pollutants or solve these issues. Standard cleaning by normal commercial hoovers can only pull up a limited number of pollutants, and in some cases will often spread them around – meaning greater issues for health in the long run.
With Acorn Carpet Cleaning, you can be certain that your carpet will be kept free of a huge host of different pollutants. Our use of powerful, industry standard hoovers with high pressure vacuums, hot water extraction, molecular sprays and agitation technology means the various pollutants trapped within the carpet can easily be removed and stopped from spreading around the home. This can help your health in the long run.
Helping your Mental Wellbeing
A properly cleaned home can have serious benefits for your mental health; the odour and look of a dirty carpet can often seriously impact your state of mental wellbeing. By having it professionally cleaned by Acorn Glasgow, who can ensure a renewed fresh appearance for your whole home, you can provide yourself and your family with a massively increased sense of mental wellbeing. You’ll also be confident in knowing your physical health is protected by the process as well.
Preventing Illness
The range of disease, germs and other illnesses spread by the dirt and grime which builds up inside of a carpet is huge. These mainly affect young children and the elderly. This is obviously something of a serious problem if your children are playing on the floor since there’s an increased chance of them catching colds and developing other illnesses. At the same time, everyone is subject to the illnesses which can be spread via carpets.
Standard cleaning can only do so much to stop illnesses spread by carpets, as the germs and dirt become rooted in the fibres and so trying to pull them out with a standard hoover is futile.
Acorn Carpet Cleaning’s extensive methods of carpet cleaning will ensure disease causing germs and bacteria are properly removed from your carpet. The powerful industry standard vacuums and our intensive hot water extraction methods will guarantee the dirt and germs in your carpet are properly removed, ensuring a general range of benefits to your health.
Helping your Immune System
The presence of germs and bacteria in your carpet may not directly make you ill but can contribute to you developing other illnesses; if you live in an environment with unclean carpets filled with germs and bacteria, your body will be working overtime to keep you healthy which means your chance to develop other illnesses will become easier.
By using Acorn Professional Carpet cleaning, you’ll be able to ensure the swathe of dirt and germs in your carpet are removed, allowing you to rest easy knowing your immune system is kept safe.
