A1 CARPET CARE - STEAM CLEANING PROCESSES
HOT WATER EXTRACTION METHOD
Hot water extraction is sometimes referred to as "steam cleaning". Actually, this is a misapplied term, as real steam is too dry and too hot to clean carpet properly. In this method, a hot cleaning solution is sprayed under pressure onto the carpet and is immediately extracted with a vacuum source. The dirty solution is collected in a recovery tank and is usually poured into the sanitary waste system. The advantage of this process is that it has the ability to flush out large amounts of soil and contaminants in carpet. It is the most preferred method by all of the major fiber producers such as DuPont, Monsanto and Allied Signal, as well as the carpet manufacturers like Shaw, Mohawk, World and Queen. Because this method removes more contaminants than the other carpet cleaning methods, hot water extraction is favored by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and is the preferred method of the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC). Most higher quality carpets that have extended appearance and texture retention warranties require this type of cleaning every 12-18 months in order to retain the warranty coverage.
ROTARY DRIMASTER METHOD
DriMaster's patented process replaces the ordinary steam cleaning spray jet with a dynamic, high-flow, high-recovery cleaning head. The cleaning solution is applied as a "sheet" rather than a jet spray, allowing controlled penetration of the carpet fiber without wetting the carpet backing. This new technology cleans faster, better and leaves the carpet 6 times drier than the same carpet cleaned with standard hot water extraction. On a typical 1,200 square foot home, the DriMaster will leave about 1/6th of the water left by the standard hot water extraction method. The low profile cleaning head fits beneath furniture and beds, where other tools can't reach. The durable polycarbonate cover makes "soft" contact with walls and furniture, preventing scratches and marks. Soft-bumpered cleaning heads can pass right over heat registers, drapery cords or electric cords without damage or tangling. This method maximizes the heat and vacuum performance of the truck-mounted cleaning system - it is revolutionary!
A1 CARPET CARE - STEAM CLEANING PACKAGES
- Our carpet cleaning process begins with pre-treatment of all areas to be cleaned. This process will loosen the soils embedded in the carpet and neutralize any acids from oils, soils, food and drink spills. This process also includes fabric softeners and color brighteners to help restore the carpet.
- The carpet is then steam cleaned with water at 220-240 degrees of heat. For every 20 degrees increased above 120 degrees, the cleaning power is doubled. Also, this temperature will ensure that the carpet is clean and all germs and bacteria are killed.
The drying time will depend on the type of carpet. Normal drying time is 2 to 4 hours.
- All solutions used in the process are biodegradable, water based, pet and child friendly.
