One of the biggest misconceptions with carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning and area rug cleaning is that the main focus is just to make the surface that’s being cleaned look better. While this is very important, and we have every trick in the book to do so, it’s equally as important to clean for health. Soft surfaces in your home or office act as giant filters (especially carpet and area rugs), so just like any other filter, they need to be cleaned regularly in order to improve the air quality of your home.

So if you’re going to clean the soft surfaces (or hard surfaces like tile and grout, and hardwood floors) for health, you’re probably also concerned about the products and chemicals being used, right? Of course! Here’s where it gets tricky: there are many buzz words in the cleaning industry such as green, chemical-free, and water only. All of these terms have some meaning, but not always what you think it is. Here’s the bottom line: look for non-toxic products, processes and chemicals. Any company can claim they use a “green” method, but unfortunately there is no regulation holding them to a particular standard.

At Sno-King, we exclusively use non-toxic, kid and pet safe products. When we are cleaning, we not only use very safe products, we also rinse them out completely to ensure there is no residue left in the carpet, upholstery or other surface after the cleaning is completed. That way we ensure that it’s a true residue free carpet cleaning and there is only water in the carpet. In addition, we use high efficiency fans to dry the carpet, upholstery or area rugs very quickly, typically within just a couple of hours.
