Steam Carpet Cleaning
There are different types of carpet cleaning methods. It all depends from the type of cleaning that the carpet requires. If you are doing regular weekly cleaning you will need only to vacuum or sweep the floor and nothing more. But if you are doing deep cleaning than you have to use different methods either shampooing the carpet, or cleaning it with deep cleaning carpet machine, or give it to professional carpet cleaners to clean it themselves. But there is one carpet cleaning method that becomes more and more popular and doesn’t require anything else than the power of heated water. The steam cleaning technology is equally useful for both types of cleaning.
Although you can clean the carpet routinely with steam cleaner, it is preferable to use it more as a deep cleaning method. First fill the water container of the steam cleaner with hot tap water. If the carpet is too dirty carpet cleaning Chelsea experts recommend to add soap to the water. But they advise to use special soaps created especially for steam cleaners, because the ordinary soaps create too much suds when they come in contact with water. And this suds have to be removed later from the carpet fabrics which would require a lot of water and cleaning machine that extracts moisture.
Before you start the steam carpet cleaning you should run the vacuum the carpet thoroughly. If there are any stubborn stains on the carpet you should pre-treat them with stain remover first, and clean with the steam cleaner later. Carpet cleaning Chelsea experts recommend that when using the steam cleaner to clean the carpet you use only two strokes to clean over a small section of the carpet. One stroke forward pushing the machine away from you, and one stroke backwards pulling the machine towards you. After that move to the next section of the carpet and clean it the same way. Keep in mind that more than two strokes will oversaturate the carpet and damage the surface underneath it.
After you are done with the steam cleaning leave the carpet to dry before you step on it. Open the windows to allow the carpet to dry faster or if you want to do it faster place fans or electric heaters facing the carpet and turn them on.
