Carpet Cleaning Myth: Steam cleaning causes mold or mildew to grow in carpet

Carpet Cleaning Myth: Steam cleaning causes mold or mildew to grow in carpet. Fact: Properly cleaned carpets will not create mold or mildew.

A professional steam cleaning actually makes your home HEALTHIER, rinsing out soil and other unhealthy particles that accumulate over time. This method of cleaning is also the #1 type recommended by carpet manufacturers. Why the misunderstanding?

Carpet that has been submerged in water or wet for an extended period of time can create an environment in which unhealthy organisms can grow if not treated properly. This can most often be the case with water intrusions but also with unskilled cleaners, including those who attempt a DIY cleaning.
