We are often asked how often should I vacuum my floors. Flooring of all types collects dust & dirt that can detract from their beauty, whether you notice a dingy look or not. The type of flooring as well as your family’s lifestyle ought to factor into your vacuuming schedule as well. A good rule of thumb would be hardwood or tile flooring should be vacuumed once a week because they don’t hold on to dust, dirt and bacteria as much as carpeted floors does. Carpet should vacuumed more frequent because the fibers trap dust, dirt and allergens. Carpets also absorbs grime and spills, giving way to bacteria. The longer you neglect a soiled carpet and continue to walk on it, the more enmeshed the dirt & debris become. Not only is vacuuming your floors important to protect your investment into your flooring but not vacuuming your floors can lead to health issues.
