How often do you clean your carpets?

I was just curious how often we should be steam cleaning our carpets. We have only used our steam cleaner once. We don't have kids or pets. The carpet doesn't have any stains, but it looks a little matted.

What do you guys do?

Re: How often do you clean your carpets?

  • I vacuum 2 x/week (because we have pets) and steam clean at least 1x/month. 
  • If you dont have kids or pets, I would think that every 6 months or so should be fine, assuming you vacuum regularly.

    Too much steam cleaning is not great for your carpeting.Im sure there must be info about this online somewhere--maybe search a website for a carpet company. 

  • With two kids we vaccum 2-3 x a week and steam about everyother month or so maybe every four can never keep track, but we have a friend that is a carpet cleaner and he will come in every spring for us and do touch ups on the bad spots on our kids' area rugs since they have hard wood in their rooms! Otherwise no kids no pets I would only do it every six months if your traffic marks are dirty from shoes!
