Vacuuming is part of the cleaning routine in
most homes. While some people make it a daily task to run their vacuum cleaner
on all their carpets, floors and furniture upholstery on a daily basis, others
do it only every two weeks – the ideal frequency is probably somewhere between
the two. Here is what experts say about often you should vacuum in your home:
- Carpets and rugs should be vacuumed at least twice a week – run your vacuum every three or four days in areas that get average traffic and step up the frequency in the areas that get heavy traffic;
- If your pets live with you inside the building, you might want to consider daily vacuuming – pets shed hair and they often enter the home with dirty paws, so you might need to clean up after them every day;
- Frequent cleaning with a Sebo vacuum machine that has advanced filters is highly recommended if you have asthma or allergy sufferers in your home – machines with HEPA filters can remove even the small particles of dust and allergens that more conventional vacuums leave untouched. In households where one or more people suffer from respiratory affections, such as asthma or allergy, vacuuming every day with a HEPA-equipped vacuum is very important to reduce the risk of getting severe symptoms.
