Low Moisture Soil Extraction System vs. Steam Cleaning


CATEGORY LOW MOISTURE SOIL EXTRACTION ADVANTAGE STEAM CLEANING
Basic Method
for Cleaning
Thousands of tiny Air Cells, masses of air surrounded by a microscopically thin sandwich of detergent, water and more detergent, are gently scrubbed into the carpet. These Air-Cells create a unique cleaning environment, containing 90% air and only 10% detergent and water, that overcomes gravity to hold soil in suspension for immediate extraction.

High pressure jets spray a solution of hot water and detergent into the carpet to loosen the soil. Some of the cleaning solution and soil are then extracted by means of a built-in suction method.
Drying Time
1 hour
