Allergies and Carpet. Do They Mix?

Carpet Q&A – “I’ve Heard Allergies and Carpet Don’t Mix. Is That True?”​
There’s a popular myth that carpet makes asthma and allergy symptoms worse. But in reality, the opposite is true. Research has shown that carpet actually acts as an air filter, trapping allergens so they can’t circulate in the air. In fact, in one study where carpet use was reduced by 70%, allergic reactions increased by 30%. If you properly clean and maintain your carpet, there is no better floor option to mitigate asthma and allergy issues.
