Tough Carpet Cleaning is here to talk about the different kinds of carpet that are available to you so that you can choose the right one for your home.

Hyperallergic Mold Resistant Acrylic Fiber Carpets

For those that are looking for a wool look-alike that isn’t going to cost as much, acrylic might be the one that you’re after. Here are the pros and cons.

Pros

– There is a smaller risk of electricity found in acrylic, so you don’t get that shocked feeling as often
– Its bright colors are resistant to sun fade
– Allergy sufferers like it for its hypoallergenic properties
– It is mold-resistant

Cons
– Stains that aren’t treated right away are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to remove
– High traffic patterns are prone to losing fibers
– The lifespan is only about 6-8 years before replacement is needed
– It isn’t especially fire retardant
