Our artificial grass lifespan is not necessarily affected by cleaning and maintaining, but has a lot of to do with usage, traffic and extreme weather exposures. However, it is always a good idea to clean your artificial lawn using blowers or garden hose when your turf gets dirty. From time to time, you might need to add some infills which will help the turf stand up better and more in tact during the course of its lifespan. For any further questions or concerns, please feel free to call us at 877 796 8873 or email us at [email protected], thank you.

Does the life span of artificial turf shorten from physical activity?

It is the law of physics, the more of the wear and tear, the less of the lifespan of artificial grass, there is no question about it. Artificial grass made for sports or other heavily used applications should be more durable with the designs for such applications in mind. The fibers are thicker and more resilient. In the sports artificial grass world, most of the products are warranted by time of play or usage, the lifespan on an artificial turf surface being played on 24/7 will last much shorter than that of being played on 1-2 hours a day. So there is no absolute answer to your question, it is all depends on the average daily usage time of artificial grass surface also what specifically the wears and tears are. You will find that all the warranties on the sports applications will specify at what activists with what length of the playing time in certain intervals (day, week or month), and your grass will last how long. Very typical in the sports field world, an artificial grass will last at least 5-8 years with playing time of a few hours a day. Again, such averages can change due to the product designs, product costs along with other factors such as weather and maintenance.

Is artificial grass viable to use indoors?

Artificial grass can be used both outdoors and indoors, we design our products for both uses without any issues. I will say the majority of applications of artificial grass are outdoors as it is mainly the perfect replica of real grass. However, in order to achieve landscape designs for some indoor applications, real grass won't be feasible due to the watering or maintenance concerns, artificial turf will be the only option. Also, all the indoor events, sport fields will need artificial grass as well. Sometimes, people will use artificial turf for indoor carpet for which application, I will always suggest to use turf with shorter blades so it will be easier to clean and provide less tripping concerns.
