How often should you steam clean your carpets?

It depends on a few factors, such as the amount of foot traffic in the area, the presence of children or pets, and whether anyone in the household has allergies or respiratory issues.

• For high-traffic areas, it's generally recommended to steam clean every 6 to 12 months.

• For areas with moderate foot traffic, steam cleaning every 12 to 18 months is usually sufficient.

• For low-traffic areas, steam cleaning every 18 to 24 months is usually sufficient.

However, there are some situations where you may need to steam clean your carpets more frequently:

• If you have children or pets, you may need to steam clean more frequently to remove stains and odors.

• If anyone in the household has allergies or respiratory issues, it's a good idea to steam clean more often to improve indoor air quality.

• If you notice any stains or odors, it's better to steam clean as soon as possible to prevent them from setting in.

Ultimately, the best way to determine how often you should steam clean your carpets is to keep an eye on the condition of the carpets and schedule a cleaning as needed.
