Fall is a beloved time in Michigan, marking the transition between summer and the cooler weather. Back to school means the kids are away all day, you get to decorate your yard with pumpkins and hay bales, and pumpkin spice is on the menu everywhere. But one thing you probably don’t associate with fall is cleaning house – specifically carpet cleaning.
There are many reasons why fall is an ideal time for carpet cleaning in Metro Detroit. Not only do your carpets take less time to dry, you can improve your indoor air quality for the health of your family. Here are some more reasons why fall is the ideal carpet cleaning season.
More Appointment Choices
You likely have your choice of appointments at this time than if you wait till the holiday season descends upon us. Everyone wants their carpets done at that time because they want their homes to look fresh and bright for their party guests. Get a jump on the rush this fall over customers who will be scrambling later on to book their cleaning services. You won’t have to compromise your busy schedule and you’ll get your pick of ideal times.
Another perk: booking when demand is lower means you may also snag a better price.
Quicker Drying Times
Drying times for carpets in summer can take longer thanks to the heat and humidity. In fall, let the fresh, cool air inside by opening the windows to aid in drying times. Faster drying times for your freshly cleaned carpet means a lower risk of mold and mildew. Here at 1st Class Carpet Cleaning and Restoration Services, we offer dry times of six to eight hours — well before the 48-hour mark of mold growth risk.
Protection Against Foot Traffic and Spills
As fall moves into winter, you’ll probably be entertaining more and welcoming guests into your house to celebrate the holidays. That’s great for your social life but not so much for your floors, which will be at a greater risk of stains, spills, dirt and mud. 1st Class applies special protectants that create a barrier of sorts designed to repel stains and dirt from carpet fibers.
Better Indoor Air Quality
As fall advances, you will be spending more time indoors due to the cooler temps and earlier sunset times. This is why you need to ensure your indoor air quality is at its best. While you’re probably looking forward to snuggling on the couch watching horror movies and baking apple pies, this increased time indoors can put you at risk of breathing in poor air quality.
Because carpets are akin to sponges, they easily attract bacteria, allergens, bacteria and other contaminants that get released into the air we are breathing. It stands to reason that the fall and winter months are much riskier for poor air quality than the warmer months. Fortunately, professional carpet cleaning services in Michigan, such as those from like 1st Class, can remove most bacteria, allergens, and viruses from your carpet due to the use of hot water extraction, antibacterial treatments, and high-temperature steam cleaning.
