While getting your upholstery professionally cleaned seems like a cosmetic luxury, it’s much deeper than that… literally. Here are five reasons why having the pros at pro-steamer clean your ten year old mattress and any other upholstered items: 1.Increased Air Quality Southeastern New Mexico can be, well, dusty. Your nice squishy sofa, your inherited great grandmas curtains, that really expensive antique winged-backed chair set you had to have? All of these items have been collecting allergens, dust, bacteria, mold, flakes of skin, and all of those silent but deadly farts you’ve been blaming on the dog have been collecting year after year. While good air filters and household plants help filter out those allergens, removing them completely from the upholstery means they aren’t there to be picked up by the filter to begin with. And, complete removal of allergens and dust is always ideal for a clean home with clean air. Those of us suffering from respitroy issues, sinus headaches, and sever allergies can truly benefit from pro-steamer. 2. Removes Odors The family couch or sectional is where a lot of life happens. You’ve engaged in countless movie nights, eaten dozens of TV dinners, fought off illnesses, and watched hundreds of TV shows and cartoons. If you have a baby or toddler, the couch has been a changing table and feeding station. For most families, the living room furniture becomes the favorite spot for homework or running an at-home business, and you can bet it is your pet’s favorite spot to wait for you to come home. Clearly, a lot happens on your furniture, and sometimes it’s all too obvious because of the odor. Plus, cooking odors from the kitchen have a way of staying on your upholstery, which also contributes to an unpleasant smell. Upholstery cleaning helps remove those odors by removing the source. 3.

Whether it’s just regular wear and tear, or spilled milk, body oil and grease, cleaning your furniture regularly can extend the life of your investment. 4. Appearance You know those stains couches collect that you’ve tried covering up with a blanket or pillow, and when company comes over you feel embarrassed? Of course, we all do!

Durability You know that faded, thinning look your furniture upholstery can get? That’s caused by dust and dirt, which act like bits of sandpaper rubbing on the fabric.
