There are several carpet cleaning methods out there, from carpet shampooing to dry steam cleaning, hot water extraction and many more. Try not to get too overwhelmed; they mostly refer to the same thing; eliminating dirt and stains from your carpet. Some methods are more effective than others, so it is important you know exactly which method you want to use when consulting professional cleaners. Be wary of cleaning companies that use generic or vague terms. Clearly state the method you want and ask for a detailed explanation on how the method works, so you’ll be sure you are getting just what you want.
The most popular and effective carpet cleaning method is the hot water extraction cleaning. Professional carpet cleaners highly recommend it as it penetrates your carpet and deeply cleans all forms of dirt and contamination. Selecting the most suitable method of carpet cleaning is highly dependent on the kind of carpet that is to be cleaned. For instance, as effective a method as hot water extraction is, it could become very harmful for fibre carpet types like jute or sisal. The fibres of the jute carpet are far more delicate than they look and could get ruined by the steam.
Hot water extraction cleaning involves the use of hot water combined with cleaning agents at very high pressure. It is pressed into the carpet, and the used water is extracted into another tank by means of a strong vacuum cleaner—the process is repeated across the whole carpet. The heat emanating from the steam allows for deep-rooted dirt, tough stains and microbes to be removed and the vacuum sucks it out, leaving your carpet neat and fresh.
It doesn’t leave particles on your carpet, and it can successfully eliminate all unpleasant odour your carpet might have. The hot water extraction cleaning also gets rid of dust mites, allergens, fungi or mildew that may be hiding in your carpet and causing allergies. Environment-friendly and beneficial health-wise, this method remains the best way to clean your carpet effectively.
