It is the rare person who can say they love their carpet years after they've purchased it. That's because time has a way of showing the stains of the past, despite futile attempts at cleaning. There are ways however, to keep your carpets looking new if you understand the principles of carpet and dirt and what attracts stains and compounds them.
The two biggest factors that affect a carpet's cleanliness and maintaining its plush or fresh look, are moisture and air contaminant's or pollution. Moisture can result from a too humid house, or simply cleaning a spill or stain with water and not drying it properly or thoroughly. Air pollution can be in the form of smoke, aerosol sprays, cooking steam or an inadequately ventilated room. Even the use of some ionizers can pull contaminants from the air and attract deposits to carpet fibers. And let's not overlook the obvious human and pet factor of accidents and hair and dust.
