In order to create a healthy indoor environment, carpet cleaning should be an essential to-do item. Carpet is the sink or filter of the house and collects dust mites, dust, bacteria and thousands of other microorganisms. It also adds to the appearance of the home, as well as increases the carpets life expectancy when cleaned properly.
There are two different types of cleaning: wet and dry. Wet cleaning is more thorough as the entire yarn is cleaned. Soil and cleaning solutions are removed by high-powered vacuum extraction. It is the preferred method as well as recommended by manufacturers. Dry cleaning is a maintenance method of cleaning. A dry cleaning solution is applied to the top of the yarn. A cotton bonnet is utilized to remove the soil. It is not extracted and only the top third of the yarn is usually cleaned.

Located in the extreme northeast corner of the United States, Maine consists largely of a coastal plain of eroded valleys, with more resistant rock forming the generally mountainous west (the Longfellow Mts., an extension of the White Mts. and part of the great Appalachian system), Mt. Desert and other islands in the east, and isolated peaks including Katahdin (5,268 ft/1,606 m), the highest point in the state. Receding glaciers deposited long drift ridges across the countryside and dammed the valleys to form more than 2,200 lakes (Moosehead Lake is the largest) and to establish new, rugged watercourses for more than 5,000 streams and rivers. The major rivers are the St. John (which, with the St. Croix, forms part of the international boundary with New Brunswick), the Penobscot, the Kennebec, the Androscoggin, and the Saco.
