STEAM CLEANING VS. STEAM CLEANING
What is the difference between Chem-Dry and Steam Cleaning?
Steam has many advantages in cleaning, but think twice before you hire a company to clean your carpets with steam.
Chem-Dry is committed to providing you with a healthy and clean home. Our Chem-Dry Green Certified Solution, proprietary equipment, and professionally trained technicians ensure that your carpets are deep cleaned and remain cleaner for longer. We are committed to providing a healthy and safe home for you and your loved ones. Let’s get into the why.
The Equipment
Cleaning begins with the cleaning equipment that you use.
Steam cleaning is a method that involves the use of high-pressure water and soap to clean your carpet. This is not good for your carpet and can drive dirt deeper into it and the backing.
Steam your carpet with 400-600 PSI.
This will drive moisture and soil deeper into the carpet.
The CHEM-DRY Hot Carbonating Extract Process uses a significant amount of water. In fact, it is about 80% less. It also cleans more effectively.
It’s a low-pressure cleaner, which is easier on carpets.
Focus on extraction – removing moisture and soil from the carpet.
The Products
Cleaning products and solutions have a big impact on the cleanliness of a carpet after cleaning and on how clean it remains.
Most steam cleaning is done with detergents, which leave a soapy film on the carpet. This attracts dirt, and your carpet will look dirty again soon after cleaning.
Carpets become dirty quickly due to the soapy residue left by detergents.
Harsh cleaning chemicals can damage carpets.
Pets and children can be harmed by cleaning chemicals.
The Natural(tm) is a proprietary cleaner that does not contain detergents or soaps, so no residue is left behind.
The Natural(tm), which contains no detergents to clean your carpet, will last longer.
The Natural(TM), one of our certified Chem-Dry Green products, is available in the Natural (TM) version.
The Natural(tm) is suitable for both children and pets.
The Process
Steam cleaners typically push large amounts of water into carpets, which can take up to a week for them to dry.
The carpet will take days to dry after it has been soaked.
Mold and mildew can grow when excessive water soaks through the carpet backing.
Uses soaps and chemical cleaners that can make carpets resoil faster.
The CHEM-DRY Hot Carbonating Extract Process uses only one-fifth of the water used in traditional steam cleaning. This allows carpets to be dried within a few hours instead of a few days.
It uses 80% less water and dries in hours instead of days.
A home with a low moisture content and an efficient extraction system will dry quickly and be healthier.
The heat accelerates the carbonation, which lifts dirt from carpet fibers.
