Marble Polishing Day


There are so many beautiful marble floors in Pittsburgh! Whether it's the South Hills, North Hills, Fox Chapel, or New Kensington. Today we were in Moon Township, polishing a beautiful sandy-colored marble with hints of pink. This collage shows the 5-step process of polishing, using different diamond grits to take out scratches and bring the floor to a shine. As the polishing process proceeds, the natural beauty of the marble becomes more vibrant!

Asthma & Allergy Certification Program Introduced

Asthma & Allergy Certification Program Introduced

According to online reports, the asthma & allergy friendly certification program has  developed and adopted a certification standard and testing protocol for feather and down-filled bedding.

For many years, the medical community has only recommended bedding items with synthetic fill for people with asthma and allergy to prevent exposure to common allergens, including mites and proteins that may be present in traditional fill. However, technological advancements and regulations in the production process of certain modern feather and down has resulted in a more uniform and refined natural down product.

"Our testing finally provides a way to determine the level of allergenic proteins in feather and down products,” according to Mike Tringale, Vice President at AAFA, “which is a major advancement for the bedding industry, and a benefit to our patients and families.”



In addition to the reduced allergen fill, all certified asthma & allergy friendly pillows are constructed with a proven allergen barrier fabric and have demonstrated the ability to withstand the recommended wash and dry frequency included with each product. The abstract of the Feather and Down Filled Bedding Certification Standard can be downloaded at www.aafa.org/certified.

Whats stronger, a wool or rayon fiber in an oriental rug?






In terms of durability, there is a very good reason why wool is the fiber of choice for rugs. In strength tests it takes more than 10,000 “bends” to break a wool fiber.
Silk isn’t too shabby either, breaking after 2,500.
Rayon? It breaks after only 70 bends

Pittsburgh Upholstery Cleaning


Pittsburgh Upholstery Cleaning

Upholstery cleaning keeps the furniture in your home looking its best, whether it’s a family heirloom, or a couch that’s worn in just right. If you’re in the greater Pittsburgh area, and you need your upholstery cleaned, it’s time to call Clean Interiors.

We use cleaning products that are family-friendly and safer for the environment.

Dan and Jen are Pittsburgh’s Fine Fabric Upholstery Specialists, so we always test for fiber type and for color fastness before cleaning any fine fabric.

Would you clean your silk shirt with the same equipment as you would clean the motor of your car? Never!

Yet Pittsburgh is full of cleaners that will clean your expensive couches and chairs like a carpet. You wouldn’t confuse your couch for your carpet. Yet some carpet cleaners don't seem to know or care about the difference. The results could be devastating.

That’s why you need a specialist. Someone that will treat your upholstery like a Chemist -- not a Hockey Player coming to slam out another job.

The cleaning of your fine, natural fabric upholstery can’t be trusted to just any carpet cleaner in Pittsburgh. These items tend to have color loss or can bleed colors that can damage your upholstery, if they are cleaned like a carpet.

We use the industry’s safest and newest chemistry to clean your upholstery, using Sapphire Scientific’s Upholstery Cleaning Systems. This means that our products, and even the tools that we use, are for designed for your upholstery. This is very important when dealing with natural fibers and microfibers.

You are sure to get a quality job and a true cleaning, with no extra charges or hidden fees.

Why Clean Interiors believes in using “green” and safe products


Why Clean Interiors believes in using “green” and safe products:
The first reason why is because Dan is highly allergic to soaps. I can’t use most store-bought detergents in our laundry even, so I mostly use a truly organic product I order online (I can tell you more about that in person). Tide gives him hives so bad he needs to see a doctor for steroids.
Dan can also be extremely affected by certain chemical odors. The #1- selling professional carpet cleaning detergent booster contains a solvent made from oranges… which although it may sound like a natural product, the vapors make him extremely ill. So keep in mind that just because many products may be labeled “green” or sound like they’re natural, it doesn’t mean it’s safe for humans or pets. (Remember, you can call arsenic natural but you sure don’t want to be around it.)
So we use safe cleaning products because we need to for our own health and yours.
But can “green” really clean? This is how the Carpet & Rug Institute defines their green certification process for carpet cleaning products: “We start with the premise that if it doesn’t clean, it can’t be green. A product first of all has to work on carpet. Then if it passes through that screen, we determine if it’s green. And we are absolutely convinced you can have both.”
What if a carpet is just too dirty to use a green product? We will use, with your approval, a more traditional carpet cleaning product that is safer than many on the market. We like to use it because it contains no butyls or other harsh solvents and it doesn’t make Dan ill.
