Carpet works well for Pacific Northwest weather
This is addressed because when shopping for carpet in Kent, WA, you’ll probably hear concerns about the rainy and often chilly area weather, but don’t be concerned. Rugs have a high R-rating, which refers to insulation, so when your home feels cool and damp, it’ll stay comfortable.
Rainy weather won’t faze it or make mold or mildew grow because they need both water and dirt to start growing. If you vacuum and deep clean it regularly, there is no dirt, i.e., “food,” on which mold and mildew can grow.

Everyone can have carpeting
That includes those with allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems. Pollutants and other undesirable substances get trapped into the fibers, where they remain until the floor is deep cleaned. That means these particles cannot fly around in the air for anyone to breathe, hence improving indoor air quality. Studies have shown that rugs are also among the fewest emitters of VOCs (volatile organic compounds).
Carpet is green
Everyone is concerned about the environment these days, and this industry has been at the forefront of the eco-friendly movement. Today’s rugs are often made with natural products like corn rather than petroleum-based products, and some even use recycled objects like plastic bottles to manufacture fibers. That "new carpet" smell is also not formaldehyde, which hasn’t been used since 1978.
Carpet is durable
Technological advances and extensive testing have created rugs with ultra-strength and superior stain resistance. A rug was placed in a rhinoceros cage for two weeks, and all that was needed was rinsing off the carpet. The best defense is to wipe spills right away, so they don’t set.
