Stark's Vacuums, a local vacuum retailer in Portland OR provides tips on how to keep your home safe from viruses and germs by sanitizing soft surfaces.The coronavirus known as COVID-19, is an enormous concern and on everyone’s mind. Experts instruct us to take extra steps to avoid contracting the virus such as washing hands for 20 seconds with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. We are told to cover our coughs and sneezes, avoid contact with others. It is also essential to keep your home free of germs, not only to prevent illness but also to keep it from spreading if someone is already sick.

Soft surfaces such as carpets, rugs, and upholstery can be some of the most challenging to clean when you are trying to disinfect your home. So, how do you sanitize soft surfaces to prevent the spread of the coronavirus and other germs?

One way is to use a commercial-grade vacuum with HEPA filtration that can capture up to 99 percent of dust, allergens and other contaminants. However, if you really want to make sure your carpets and other soft surfaces are sanitized, a steam cleaner is the way to do it.

Keep Your Family Safe and Healthy

The coronavirus has been documented to linger for extended periods of time on surfaces. Frequently disinfecting high touch surfaces is essential – but what about soft surfaces such as carpets, rugs and upholstery?

The CDC recommends cleaning soft surfaces using soap and water – or with other cleaners that are appropriate. While the laundering of these surfaces is a highly effective way to sanitize them, for most of those mentioned above, that simply not an option.

For these soft surfaces a high-quality carpet cleaner with effective cleaning products is essential in keeping your family safe and healthy. At Stark’s we are the vacuum experts, which is why we offer only the BEST offer carpet cleaner for in-home cleaning.
