For people suffering from allergies, summer months are a crucial time to maintain a cleaner and more allergen-free environment indoors. Although rugs add aesthetic appeal to rooms while supplying comfort, they are also a haven for unwanted allergens like pollen, pet dander, dust mites and mould spores.
While regular rug care can help to lessen symptoms like sneezing, coughing, shortness of breath and red/runny eyes and noses, a professional clean is a better solution for ridding rugs of irritants and alleviating allergic reactions.
A trap for allergens
A rug’s connected fibres act like a filter, catching allergens and stopping circulation in your home’s atmosphere. However, the unwanted matter accumulates over time, becoming a source of constant exposure that aggravates allergy symptoms. When rugs carrying allergens are placed in bedrooms, they can also impact air quality for residents leading to poor quality sleep that leaves them tired and irritable. While routine vacuuming is beneficial, it can rarely remove allergens deeply embedded in luxury rugs.
How does professional cleaning help?
Experts who perform professional rug cleaning in Ipswich, Colchester and other parts of the UK use tried and tested techniques and equipment to extract unwanted elements like allergens. Harmonic dry soil removal, rug washing pools and soaking troughs clean rugs deeper than household apparatus can manage. After a summer clean, rugs return to owners dried, allergen-free and ready to use immediately, creating a healthier home environment to enjoy the sunny season in.
