Survey looks at indoor air quality and carpeting
CleanLink
A survey of carpet cleaning technicians, cleaning professionals and facility managers finds that the majority (43 percent) believe carpeting improves or can help protect indoor air quality. Just under 30 percent disagreed, while the remainder was unsure. The survey, conducted for U.S. Products, found that more than half (55 percent) of the respondents said that they have "researched information on how carpets may or may not impact IAQ." The rest indicated they had not done any research on the subject. However, 59 percent indicated they already have "adequate information" as to the impact, pro or con, carpets may have on IAQ.More
