Childhood Asthma Study Published in The New England Journal of Medicine Concludes: No Difference in Allergen Levels in Carpeted vs. Uncarpeted Homes

On April 15, 2011, the Carpet & Rug Institute announced that a major study of inner city children with asthma concludes that positive environmental interventions in the children's homes, such as improved cleaning and the elimination of tobacco smoke, will result in a lessening of the children's asthma-related symptoms and an increase in their symptom-free days.

Further, the Inner-City Asthma Study found no difference in the improvement experienced by children who lived in homes with carpet versus children from homes with other types of flooring. In addition, no difference was found in the levels of allergens measured in carpeted homes compared to homes with hard surface floors. Click Here to Read the Complete Article.

“

The team of technicians were fantastic! I was impressed by their professional demeanor as soon as they walked in the door. I was thrilled to see how thoroughly they cleaned the carpets and by the final results…spotless. I appreciated their instruction as to how I can deal with spot cleaning at home. They even gave me some bottles of special spot carpet cleaner. Ayoub, thank you for the best carpet service I have ever used! You saved our expensive rug from a red wine spill on a first try and now you have surpassed that great service.
