CARPET MANUFACTURES RECOMMENDATIONS
Periodic Professional Cleaning:
Recent studies by the Environmental Protection Agency, major fiber producers
such as DuPont, Allied, Monsanto and the major carpet mills indicate that
residential carpet should be professionally deep cleaned every twelve to
eighteen months. The carpet's unique ability to trap and collect soil will
continue to add positively to the environment if the collected soil is regularly
and properly removed.
DuPont
To refresh carpet texture, a process
commonly known as hot water extraction, performed by a trained, qualified carpet
care professional, is required at least every 18 months. Proof of this service
is required for warranty claims.
Shaw
Have your carpet professionally
steam-cleaned every 12-18 months, research indicates this method provides the
best capability for cleaning. This system is commonly referred to as "steam
cleaning", although no steam is actually generated.
"Regular vacuuming and period professional cleaning improve the indoor environment during the life of the carpet."
Allied
Periodic professional cleaning of
the overall carpet is recommended. Carpets perform best when properly cleaned by
a professional carpet cleaner using specially formulated cleaners developed for
your carpet.
Monsanto
Professional carpet cleaners using
steam extraction, can keep your carpet fresher, brighter and newer looking
longer.
