What is the Difference Between Carpet Dry Cleaning and Steam Cleaning?

Have you been considering having your carpets washed but aren't sure if steam cleaning or dry cleaning is best for your carpet?

Simply put, both methods can produce excellent results; the only difference is the amount of water used.

The technician, the chemicals, and the equipment all play a role in the clean's efficiency.

The Pros and Cons

The Process:

Carpet Dry Cleaning

1. Dry soil is removed using industrial-strength machines and a pre-vacuum.
2. A dry-cleaning solution is applied to the carpet, which is a mixture of dry-cleaning solvents carried in water.
3. Sticky residue on carpet fabrics is broken down by dry-cleaning solutions. Since oil is what makes dirt stick to fibers, removing it makes soiling easier to clean.
4. Cotton pads are soaked in hot water and then put in a rotary machine with a conditioning rinse. The pad flips around in the machine, releasing dirt from the carpet. During the cleaning process, the pads are replaced as needed.

Carpet Steam Cleaning

1. Since any dry soil will turn to mud during the cleaning process, a pre-vacuum is recommended.
2. Hot Water Extraction Cleaning is another name for steam cleaning. The procedure entails injecting high-pressure hot water into your carpet and then removing the water. Water is used to remove dirt from the carpet during this process.
3. Pre-treat stains and use a pre-spray to break down surface tension in the carpet with an efficient steam cleaner. Prior to extraction, this will ensure that the water will penetrate deeply into the carpet fibers.

Steam Cleaning of Carpets

If the technician uses appropriate cleaning pre-sprays, agitates the carpet, and takes the time and effort to remove as much water as possible from the carpet, they can produce a great result. The process will make the carpet really damp, and it can take up to 24 hours, or even days, for it to dry fully. Steam cleaning can be ineffective at removing sticky stains without sufficient pretreatment (the dark spots on the carpet). The stain will linger if the oily residue is not removed, or it may easily reappear as dirt adheres to the oily residue.

Dry Cleaning of Carpets

Carpets are still vacuumed before use. The oily residue is broken down by a carpet dry cleaning solution. More stains are targeted than in other methods. Your carpet's chemical equilibrium can be restored. In one hour, you'll be good to go.

Steam Cleaning of Carpets

If the procedure is followed correctly, qualified technicians will produce excellent results. Without adequate pre-treatment, it is ineffective at removing oily stains. As dirt adheres to an oily residue that may not have been properly cleaned, stains may persist or reappear. It's possible that the carpet will get very damp and take up to 24 hours to dry.

What is a Double Clean?

Since steam cleaning and dry cleaning have different advantages, we provide a “dual clean” service that combines the two.

This service is provided for extremely dirty carpets where the combination of steam cleaning rinsing and dry cleaning stain removal benefits can provide a superior result. The cost of a dual clean is usually 80 percent higher than the cost of a regular clean.
