Carpets are often seen as a culprit in indoor air quality issues due to dust and allergens, but today’s carpets actually play a crucial role in improving the air quality within your home. Here’s why carpets should be part of your home’s air quality solution.
Are Carpets Really Bad for Indoor Air Quality?
It’s often assumed that carpets trap allergens and worsen indoor air quality, but modern carpets are designed to contain particles like dust mites and pet dander. Instead of releasing them back into the air, they keep allergens contained, improving air quality when cleaned regularly.
How Modern Carpets Help Filter Dust and Allergens
Today’s carpets use fibers that trap dust, pet hair, and other allergens, keeping them from circulating in the air. Anti-static properties in fibers like nylon and polyester help to prevent dust buildup, which means cleaner, healthier air, especially in high-traffic areas.
Benefits of Regular Cleaning and Professional Installation
Maintaining clean carpets is key to maximizing their air quality benefits. While vacuuming removes surface dust and debris, professional cleaning removes deep-seated allergens, improving indoor air quality and reducing respiratory irritants. Regular cleaning prevents allergen buildup that could harm your health.
Just as important as cleaning is proper installation. If carpets are installed improperly, they may develop wrinkles or gaps that trap dust and allergens. Professional installation, with appropriate underlayment and sealing, keeps your carpets functional in maintaining air quality.
