There are times when hot water extraction is the ideal system, most often when urine is involved.
1. Hot Water Extraction Carpet Cleaning = Steam Cleaning
You might know the term “hot water extraction” like a carpet cleaning method by its more popular synonym “steam cleaning.” Though the two terms refer to the same process, the phrase “steam cleaning” is a bit misleading. There is often little to no steam involved when steam cleaning is used. Instead, the term “hot water extraction” is more accurate.
2. How Hot Water Extraction Works
When hot water extraction is used to clean your carpets, high-pressure tools are used to propel hot water into your carpet after a cleaning agent has been applied and agitated into the carpet fiber. This process helps to flush out urine or other strong odors that get down into padding. The high-powered vacuum removes all of this material from your carpet.
3. DIY Isn’t the Same as the Professionals
Renting a machine to clean your carpets from your favorite grocery or big-box store is a popular way for those homeowners who want to do-it-yourself to approach this job. While their spirit of tackling the job themselves is to be admired, it’s important to know that the process, as well as the results, will not be as thorough as the professionals. The products we have available to us as trained professionals in addition to the better maintained and quality equipment will give you the best possible clean.
Especially if you are to the point of deciding to tear out soiled carpet, this may be a simpler and more cost effective solution.
Why is Rotovac better then your average steam cleaning?
Carpet
Carpet is a major investment in your home. You want to protect that investment. With the Rotovac 360i we can do that for you. A basic wand style steam cleaning machine must be manually slid back and forth. The 360i cleans the same area with 250 rotations per minute. No human can move that fast! With a wand style cleaner the operator gets too tired to complete the job with consistent good quality and efficient speed. The Rotovac 360i cleans more thoroughly and does it with virtually no friction on your valuable carpets, thanks to the Rotovac technology.
The 360i reaches dirt much deeper then a wand style cleaner, removing all the dust that has been ground into your carpet. It hits all angles of the carpet thanks to the soft brush that spins underneath. Odors will be removed and the carpet will be left soft and refreshed.
Although all stains can’t be removed, we will remove the ones that can be and let you know the difference before we start.
Tile & Grout
Stop scrubbing tile on your hands and knees. The Rotovac 360i can do it even better! Thanks to the 360i’s special bristles, we can get down right into the grout! All that grime will be wiped clean! Your old grimy tile will be returned to its former glory.
