There are many options when it comes to choosing a carpet cleaning company for your home, or for your business. However, it is important that you understand the differences between different carpet cleaning methods. Not all carpet cleaning methods will work for your carpet.
These are the carpet cleaning available on the market
Hot water Extraction Cleaning
Hot water extraction cleaning is also known as steam carpet cleaning. It uses high-pressure hot water to activate the carpet fibres and dissolve dirt.
Hot water extraction cleaning involves applying a cleaning agent to the carpet’s surface and then brushing it with a brush. Rinsing is next. After letting the carpet soak up the cleaning agent for a while, it will be “washed” with carpet-cleaning equipment. The carpet will then be dried in a room or in an air-conditioned area.
A carpeted office with a typical size of 3000 square feet would take approximately 2 hours to clean, and at least 4 hours to dry. Carpet cleaning companies recommend that the carpet be cleaned by the end of the afternoon. This allows for the carpet to dry overnight and the office to reopen the following morning.
Carpet Shampooing
The shampooing carpet was a popular method of cleaning until the introduction of encapsulation technology in the 1970s. Although the shampooing carpet can clean a lot of dirt, it is not as popular as other cleaning methods. This is because the carpet absorbs a lot of the wet foam residues and takes longer to dry.
Encapsulation
Foam encapsulation uses synthetic detergents to make a base, which will then crystallize into powder when it dries. After cleaning carpet fibre, loose dirt particles will be encapsulated in foam. Finally, the foam can be vacuumed or brushed after drying.
Foam encapsulation cleaning technology has taken over carpet shampooing technology. It uses less water and takes less time to dry than carpet shampooing. People who support the use of environmentally friendly products have given foam encapsulation cleaning thumbs up because it leaves less chemical residue after cleaning than carpet shampooing.
Encapsulation carpet cleaning is a good method to clean carpets with heavy soil. However, the technology’s limitations mean that it has not been able to fully clean carpets with severe soiling.
Bonnet Cleaning
This method of carpet cleaning produces good surface cleaning results. It involves cleaning the top portion of the carpet fibre with a motorised machine equipped with a spinning pad and soaking it in the cleaning solution.
Bonneting is a popular choice for hotels as it provides a quick solution to cleaning carpets in public areas that are heavy-trafficked. It can also dry quickly and prevent guests from experiencing inconvenience.
Bonneting doesn’t deep clean carpets. This means that dirt underneath the carpet will quickly return to the surface, making the carpet soiled again. Bonneting can also cause the accumulation of chemical residue in the carpet due to the pressure exerted by the spinning pad’s heavyweight.
Dry Carpet Cleaning
Compound cleaning, also known as dry carpet cleaning, is a new technology that has been on the market. It is a popular choice because it doesn’t require drying and provides excellent cleaning results.
There have been many kinds of powders and cleaning compounds that have been created since dry carpet cleaning technology was first introduced in the 1980s. This cleaning technology is still considered new in comparison to traditional wet carpet cleaning methods, which have been used for decades. Many people are sceptical about its effectiveness.
Dry carpet cleaning’s highlight is when cleaning compound or powder is applied to the carpet bottom using a motorized counter rotating toothbrush machine. This opens up the carpet fibre and allows the compound to settle in, leading to thorough deep carpet cleaning.
The cleaning compound is usually made from biodegradable material, which works in the same way as micro-sponges. It can absorb dirt and dirt from the carpet and can be easily removed at the end.
Different dry carpet cleaning equipment manufacturers can differentiate themselves by creating their own cleaning powders or formulas and customizing the equipment design and function.
Dry carpet cleaning can be done on all types of carpets. It is recommended for commercial offices that operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
