THE EPA LISTS INDOOR AIR QUALITY (IAQ) AS THE
 4TH LARGEST ENVIRONMENTAL THREAT TO OUR COUNTRY.

Most Americans spend 90% of their time indoors. Levels of pollutants may be 200% to 500% higher indoors than outdoors, even in cities with a lot of air pollution. The indoor air is full of harmful pollutants. Dust mites thrive on the gunk deep down in the carpet. It is invisible to the eye, but very apparent to the lungs. Every time someone walks across the carpet, the pollutants are released into the air. It can stay airborne for an hour or more, so that the average home will always have these particulate in the air. This is especially harmful to those with allergies. This is why we believe carpet cleaning is foremost a health issue, secondarily an appearance issue.

If your symptoms abate while you\'re away, but reoccur upon your return, you may have issues with indoor air quality.
Dust mites, allergens, and other irritants can be pervasive in all homes, and you need to develop a comprehensive strategy to maintain your home's healthy environment. Daily vacuuming and timely carpet cleaning can be part of your overall defense against indoor irritants.
