  • Dry Carpet Cleaning

Here is the quick understanding document for you-

This first and basic procedure follows loosen the dirt and oil from the surface of the carpet and dusting it off. Wet your carpet by pre-spraying it on the affected area or all over the carpet through steam vacuum machine.  Rinse your carpet thoroughly. And then, finally, dry-stroke your carpet.

Professional steam carpet cleaners also use turbo fans to dry out the complete thing.

But in the case of dry cleaning, professional put an absorbent powder on it, rubbing them around, and then clean it with a vacuum cleaner.

Then, what is the difference? The differences are the results that are way different in both of the cases. Let’s understand the basic difference between the two of them.

Deep Steam Cleaning

This procedure includes hot water extraction which can produce a lot of steam. The professional steam carpet cleaning services include a truck-mount hot water extraction unit that forces steaming hot water onto the carpet under high pressure and then sucks all of it along with the dirt. Most of the experts also claim that steam is the best one for most of the carpet types. Check out the advantages:

  • The high pressure and high temperature heat kills the microbial deposition such as bacteria, mold, fungus, and dust mites and help to maintain a healthy surrounding.
  • This ritual doesn’t leave any soapy residue behind and thus looks clean and shining. Moreover, detergent residues act as magnets to dirt, making your carpet to get dirty much sooner.
  • The steam from the extraction unit in high pressure more successfully penetrates to the base of the fibres of the carpets which has the power to remove even the stubborn stains and dirt.
  • It has been seen that the strong vacuum system can remove up to 95% of the moisture from the carpet leaving the carpet almost dry.
  • If the heat is above 118 degrees Fahrenheit, the cleaning power of the cleaning agents doubles up. The same formula is applied in the steam cleaning. Deep Steam Cleaning follows temperature between 180 and 240 degrees.

Dry Cleaning

Dry cleaning includes dry shampoo on the carpet. The procedure allows the dry shampoo to dry completely and then sucking the dry shampoo through vacuum cleaner without rinsing it. The only complication or back drop of this procedure is that it leaves dirty residue in your carpet which further attracts dirt and the carpet gets dirty sooner.
