There’s a debate around whether cleaning your carpets and furniture improves air quality or makes it worse. While some believe deep cleaning can negatively affect indoor air quality, others claim it helps by removing allergens and dirt. Having provided top-rated carpet and upholstery cleaning services in Chicago for years, we’ve seen firsthand how deep cleaning can significantly improve air quality for our customers.
Every home is different, but if you suffer from allergies—whether seasonal or from pets—our specialized cleaning services for carpets, rugs, and upholstery can help alleviate symptoms. In Chicago, allergy season typically lasts from March to May, but some of our customers experience discomfort from February to September due to seasonal allergens.
Why Do Some Feel Air Quality Deteriorates After Cleaning?
There are valid reasons why some individuals feel their air quality either stays the same or worsens after a deep cleaning of their carpets and furniture. However, it’s not the cleaning process itself to blame—it’s often the cleaning methods used by other companies. Unlike typical carpet and upholstery cleaners, we at Detail Cleaning M&M focus on a specialized approach that ensures your carpets and furniture are cleaned in a way that actually improves the air quality in your home. We don’t use harmful chemicals, and we’ve mastered techniques to address the most common causes of poor air quality.
Common Causes of Worsened Air Quality After Cleaning:
- Mold and Mildew: Some people report mold or mildew growth after cleaning because carpets and furniture retain moisture, leading to bacterial growth. This can be a concern, but at Detail Cleaning M&M we use fast-drying methods to prevent moisture from lingering and causing issues.
- Toxic Cleaning Products: Many carpet and upholstery cleaners use harsh, toxic chemicals that can contribute to poor air quality. At Detail Cleaning M&M, we prioritize safety by using only non-toxic, chemical-free products that are gentle on your home and the environment.
How Deep Carpet Cleaning Services Can Improve Air Quality
If you’re looking for deep carpet cleaning services in Chicago that will enhance the air quality in your home, look no further than Detail Cleaning M&M. Standard vacuuming may remove visible dirt, but it doesn’t address the hidden allergens, dust, or pet dander embedded deep in your carpet fibers. Our deep cleaning methods, which include grooming carpets before and after cleaning, hand cleaning, and quick-dry techniques, are designed to eliminate these invisible pollutants. This goes far beyond the basic “rug-scrubbing” you may have seen from other cleaning services.
