Undoubtedly, carpets play a vital role in enhancing the elegance and vibrancy of our homes. Whether it’s placing a comfy surface in our living rooms or bedrooms, carpets need to be thoroughly cleaned to maintain their beauty. A clean and dust-free carpet has the power to breathe new life into our spaces.
In Australia, Hot Water Extraction is widely regarded as the best method for carpet cleaning (and it’s what us at Wizard Cleaning Perth® use!). This technique ensures the thorough removal of dirt, leaving your carpet looking fresh, new and radiant. Not only does it eliminate surface soiling, but it also helps to remove germs that can trigger allergies or even illness.
Types of machines used for professional carpet cleaning
Hot Water Extraction relies on two main types of machines for effective carpet cleaning:
Portable Machines: These machines are great for apartments and hard to access areas. Don’t let the name ‘portable’ be confused for ‘less powerful’ – they come equipped with dual stage vacuums as well as heating elements, and the pump is capable of achieving up to 1500 psi. These machines provide hospital-grade cleaning quality.
Truck-mounted Machines: The truck-mounted machines are a perfect option for commercial, industrial and even domestic solutions such as houses. With a truck-mounted cleaner, one can expect a fast-working machine that’s capable of delivering extremely high heat accompanied by a very powerful sucking action. When you combine these factors, it also means a significant reduction in drying time.
Most professional cleaning companies rely on Hot Water Extraction to clean carpets and upholstery for their clients. During this process, a suitable pre-conditioner (a specialised cleaning solution) is applied to the carpet, loosening and breaking up the soil. The carpet fibers are then sprayed with hot water, which is immediately extracted using a high-powered vacuum. This extraction process efficiently removes the hot water, along with dirt, soil, and stains.
Be careful with DIY
While it may seem simple, attempting to clean carpets yourself using steam cleaners or extractors may not yield the best results. These types of cleaners can oversaturate the carpet, leaving behind cleaning solution residue and potentially leading to mold growth in the absence of proper ventilation. On the other hand, professional carpet cleaners follow a systematic process that prevents damage to your carpets and minimises the accumulation of dirt, ensuring they stay cleaner for longer. Professional cleaners focus on removing as much water as possible and ensuring quick drying times for the carpets.
