Cleaning your carpets and rugs regularly during the year, will make them last longer, look better, and will protect your family’s health allowing everyone to actually breathe easier.
Our philosophy at HealthFirst Cleaning is “looks aren’t everything”. Clean FIRST for your family’s health, THEN for appearance. In the average home, dust mites feed on dead skin scales and other debris. They hide in your rugs, upholstery, drapes, mattresses, bedding, and pillows. Eighty percent of Americans who suffer from allergies, are allergic to airborne mite refuse. To help limit their effect on your health, you need to clean your rugs and furniture more often. There’s no better time than right now!
The E.P.A. says…
“Until such time as the carpet fibers are cleaned, the potential for human exposure and health risk remains high.”
“Every time carpets and fabrics are emptied of their pollution build–up through professional cleaning methods, there is a health benefit.”
With this in mind, it is important to note that although most of us primarily clean our carpets for appearance sake, we are also contributing to a healthier indoor family environment.
Health First Cleaning ensures naturally healthy, clean living environments by using only hypoallergenic products that neutralize the pollutants that cause and aggravate asthma and allergies, completely flushing them out.
We use only hypoallergenic cleaning solutions.
