Should I Have My Carpets Cleaned When it’s Cold Outside?

One of the best times of the year to have your carpets and upholstery professionally cleaned is the winter. It’s a common misconception that you need to wait until spring or summer to clean your carpets. While there are a lot of benefits to having your carpets cleaned in the warm weather, there are also a lot of positives to cleaning your carpets in the winter and cold weather!

The Carpet Dries Faster

Air is typically dryer in cold weather, which helps your carpet and upholstery dry faster. This reduces the chance of mold and mildew developing from a carpet cleaning. The dry air with the heater from the house creates the perfect conditions for your carpet to dry faster than usual!

Having Your Carpets Cleaned Will Strengthen Your Immune System

There are many allergens, dust and pollutants lurking beneath your carpet. These are detrimental to your immune system and could contribute to catching a cold or flu.  Having your carpets cleaned in the winter will reduce the amount of allergens in your home, give you and your family a cleaner, healthier home to relax in!

It's Easier to Schedule an Appointment

During months with warmer weather carpet and upholstery cleaning is in higher demand. This can make scheduling difficult and at some points could mean waiting a week or two for an appointment. However, in the winter appointments are more available. This makes it so we can  accommodate all scheduling needs and shortening the time you have to wait for an appointment.
