Have you ever thought about what happens at the molecular scale, beneath the surface of your carpets, when this is done? We’ll take a journey through the fascinating world of steam, and how it can transform carpets. Find out more?
1. The water gets hot and heavy:
Water is heated up to high temperatures. The liquid is transformed into vapor. Why? Why?
2. The Pressure is On!
Pressure is more important than heat. Water at high temperatures is forced into the carpet. The steam is forced into the carpet by the pressurized water.
3. The Surfactants are in the Party!
Steam is often accompanied by cleaning agents. Surfactants are agents that reduce the surface tension of water, which allows it to better spread out and moisten surfaces. The steam is able to remove dirt more effectively.
4. “Extraction: The Grand Finale”
After the steaming has done its job, removing dirt and loosening it, extraction is next. Vacuums are powerful machines that remove moisture and dirt and grime. What’s the result? The carpet will be almost dry, as well as clean.
5. Allergen Abatement:
Steam at high temperatures is not only effective in removing dirt, but it can also kill many bacteria and allergens. It’s a great benefit for allergy sufferers as it makes the home environment healthier.
6. The Green Guardian
The eco-friendly aspect of steam cleaning is well known. Mother Nature wins, as there are minimal chemicals used. The indoor air quality is also improved, with minimal residues.
7. Durability:
Steam cleaning not only cleans, but also rejuvenates the carpet fibers, increasing their lifespan. Steam cleaning restores the life of carpet fibers that have been worn down by abrasive dust particles.
