Carpet Dry Cleaning is a cleaning method that uses a fraction of the moisture of traditional steam cleaning. As a cleaning method it is a fantastic alternative to the customer who wants sparkling clean carpets that are dry in 1-2 hours. The convenience is such that the carpets are left dry enough to walk on and are usually completely dry in 1-2 hours.
The secret is the cleaning solutions used that can accelerate dry times dramatically. So instead of applying detergents and soap and then relying on the hot water to rinse them out, dry cleaning uses solutions that magically break down dirt and trap it. The solution is then buffed out with large cotton and rayon pads that remove most of the moisture and also the dirt trapped with it.
Once the job is done all solutions evaporate out completely leaving no soapy residue that can make your carpet re-soil again quickly. As a result your carpet stays cleaner for longer and the money you’d spend on carpet protection can be saved.
What are the advantages?
The main advantage is the dry time. There is no need to leave your home and your carpets will be dry within 1-2 hours. This is especially handy for families with pets or children that find it near impossible to evacuate the house for such an extended period of time.
There is also the bonus of no problems associated with excess moisture. These can include mould and bacteria and also problems with the structure of the carpet. For example, a shag rug might be different to a persian rug. A lot of manufacturers now recommend lower dry times to protect the integrity of the fibres and backing of your carpet.
Another advantage is the fact that dry cleaning uses completely non-toxic solutions that are family friendly and safe for people and pets. You can rest at ease knowing your carpet will be beautifully cleaned without putting the health of your family at risk.
