CLEAN AND FRESH CARPET CLEANING METHODS Our company is trained and experienced in all methods of carpet cleaning. Each method has distinct advantages in certain situations. Each method may be totally inappropriate in other situations. We have found consistently that in most situations, there are two cleaning methods that work most effectively - high performance hot water extraction “steam” cleaning, and Encapuclean Low Moisture Encapsulation Cleaning. These are likely the methods we would employ in your facility. High Performance Hot Water Extraction Cleaning A cleaning solution pretreatment is applied to high traffic areas to dissolve and dislodge ground in soiling. This cleaning solution is specially selected based upon the construction of your carpet and your specific soiling conditions. After this pre-treatment has had the proper dwell time, a hot cleaning solution is injected under pressure into the face yarn of the carpet and extracted with powerful vacuum suction. This provides a rinsing action and leaves your carpeting clean, refreshed, and virtually residue free. High performance hot water extraction cleaning employs a truck mounted cleaning machine or a high powered portable extractor. Typical drying times in a commercial cleaning environment are from 1 to 6 hours. Encapuclean Low Moisture - Encapsulation Cleaning A special formulated cleaning solution is carefully applied to the carpeting. Subsequently, this solution is aggressive counter rotating or rotary brush. The agitation, combined with the low moisture cleaning solution, dissolve and dislodges ground-in soil from the carpet fibers. The encapsulation nature of the cleaning solution holds the dissolved and dislodge soil in suspension and prevents the soil from becoming re-dry, subsequent dry vacuuming removes theencapsulated soils. Special additives to the cleaning solution can be used to help prevent the carpet from resoiling too fast and to replenish the stain resistant properties of the carpeting. Typical drying times for this method are less than one hour. On various occasions, our carpet care specialists may determine due to carpet texture or construction, soiling conditions, environmental conditions, or budgetary considerations that another carpet cleaning method would be best used as all or part of your carpet maintenance program. Rest assured, we are carefully trained in the proper application of every carpet cleaning method we employ. Bonnet Cleaning Bonnet cleaning is very fast and efficient. An absorbent pad (bonnet) is placed under a low speed rotary floor machine. A cleaning solution is sprayed onto the carpet, followed by spin cleaning with the bonnet pad. This is a maintenance method and is usually not suitable for deep cleaning or restoration cleaning. Rotary and Dry Foam Rotary and dry foam employs a high quantity of shampoo foam that is directly applied to the carpeting and agitated mechanically. A rotary floor machine or a dry foam machine with a reel type brush may be used. These methods may be used as a special pre-agitation before a hot water extraction rinse, or used as a maintenance method without a rinse. Absorbent Compound (Dry Powder) Extraction Absorbent compound (dry powder) extraction applies a dry substance that has been impregnated with cleaning solvents and other agents to the carpet, and is then subsequently agitated into the carpet pile with a counter rotating brush. These agents absorb or attach to soil particles, and are vacuumed out of the carpeting. The best application of this method is in areas where frequent maintenance of lightly soiled carpets is reqired, but round the clock foot traffic prevent any downtime. • We make the options available.
