Why Clean Drapes Matter
Drapes, Curtains and Blinds act as filters absorbing airborne pollutants, dust and allergens, all worsening indoor air quality and affecting your health. Recent studies have highlighted the role of draperies in infectious disease transmission. Dirty drapes attract dust mites, and provide a fertile environment for the spread of bacteria, and viruses such as H1N1 and Cdifficile.
Embedded dirt and moisture combine with sunlight to produce dry rot. Fumes from furnaces and fireplaces and food odours contain airborne chemicals which oxidize to form a mild acid when combined with Oxygen & Moisture. Even drapes not visibly dirty require regular cleaning to prolong their lifespan. Without cleaning, the lifespan of your drapes is shortened considerably. Protect Your Investment- Drapes are expensive to replace.
