Three Myths About Commercial Carpets Put to Rest
by 212 Carpet A Knowledge Based Commercial Flooring Company!Even if stories about flying carpets are relics of the past, there is still a startling number of carpet myths and misconceptions around. Take, for example, the three prevalent myths surrounding commercial carpet installation listed below—all of them are absurdly wrong. Still, if you walk into a room full of wood floor aficionados, you are bound to hear at least one of those myths espoused as unquestionable truth. In this blog, we will debunk those myths.
Myth 1. Carpet installation is costly; flooring is less so.
Carpeting is actually one of the most affordable commercial floor covering options available today. A commercial carpet installation costs less than hardwood floor installation—and yet a carpet can last for decades when properly cared for. Similarly, while some flooring solutions may be less expensive than carpet installation in the short term, they are often rather flimsy and will wear out soon. When the cost of replacing a cheap floor every few years is factored in, commercial carpeting seems to be the clear winner.
Myth 2. Prepare to put up with years of exhausting daily carpet maintenance and upkeep.
Commercial property owners and managers are often advised against installing carpet because naysayers believe that a carpet is simply “too much work” to clean and maintain compared to flooring. However, a commercial carpet is far easier to maintain than, say, hardwood. After all, you only need to vacuum the carpet once a week and have it steam cleaned once a year—no sweeping, polishing, waxing, or buffing.
Myth 3. Carpets aggravate asthma and allergies and harbor allergens and bacteria.
Carpeting actually helps trap airborne particles such as dust and pollen, preventing them from circulating in the air and being inhaled by everyone who walks by. Only dirty carpets pose a risk to those with allergies, asthma, or weaker immune systems. Because commercial spaces are always thoroughly cleaned regularly, there is no reason for avoiding a carpet installation.
