Learn About the Advantages of Having Your Carpets Steam Cleaned

The best way to clean your carpets thoroughly is via hot water extraction, also called steam cleaning. Top carpet manufacturers recommend that your carpets be steam cleaned at least once a year to not only prolong the life of your carpet but to also improve the environment of your home or business.

Steam cleaning is a really effective and efficient way to clean dirt and build-up from the carpet fibers, including mold and pet odors. During the steam cleaning process, a truck-mounted hot water extraction unit forces very hot water into the base of the carpet using very high pressure. It then sucks the water back in along with all the dirt from the depths of your carpet.

Deep steam cleaning is done between 180 and 240 degrees. Above 118 degrees Fahrenheit, every 18 degrees doubles the cleaning power of the cleaning agents - meaning very little product is required to thoroughly clean your carpets. There are many other reasons to opt for steam cleaning including: 

• The high heat of the steam has the ability to kill bacteria, fungus, mold, and dust mites, making it the healthiest way to clean carpet.
• Steaming does not leave behind any type of residue. Detergent residue can attract dirt causing your carpet to get dirty faster.
•  The high-pressure steam can penetrate to the base of the carpet fibers, removing even the most deeply embedded dirt.
• The strong vacuum system removes 95% of the moisture from your carpet after cleaning.
