Having a clean carpet is not just aesthetic. Is a health matter. 

Depending on where you live your house could contain twice the amount of dust in the air compared to the air outside. 

But this is not the end of the story.

Very dangerous germs are found in carpets, in fact Novovirus, the one that causes stomach flu, is able to survive in an uncleaned carpet for over a month! 

But there’s more. Most of householders vacuum their carpets once a week which is better than nothing, but still not very efficient. It’s recommended to do it twice a week if your vacuum cleaner is new. And if you have a pet you should do it in a daily basis. 

Besides that, a professional deep vacuum must be performed at least once a year in order to keep your carpet clean and also to detect  hidden hazards, specially in dark corners or closets. 

And last but not least, remember all carpets have a lifespan. If yours is too old or worn you have to deep cleaning more often.
