Dry
chemical carpet cleaning method
The dry chemical
carpet cleaning method is the lowest moisture method out there.
As the name suggests, Dry Chemical Carpet
Cleaning is fairly dry. There is almost nothing wet involved. A number
of people in the business believe that to be a problem, one thing that
can be agreed on is that it is quickly started, quickly finished, and
quickly traversable again. It is good for virtually every type of
carpet. This method is usually best for high traffic places, usually
public, such as stores, or churches, if not used with periodically with
deep cleaning processes. But if only used on it’s own, it should be used
in places where children are unlikely to play on it, as some residue may
remain.
The process of dry chem. cleaning is fairly simple. Where there is deep
dirt and soil, a pre-conditioner is usually added to loosen so the
chemicals can do their job properly. After that the chemicals
themselves, (these are most commonly a cleaner not unlike laundry
detergent and a weak acid or basic solution) is dusted into the carpet
and then worked deeper with a brushing machine. To assure the mixture is
fully worked into the carpet fiber, the brush is usually used a number
of different times over the surface of the carpet to different
directions. Next, a drying period takes place (usually no more than an
hour, depending on the brand) and then the entire floor surface is
vacuumed. This process should get almost all soils out of your carpet,
but if not, the entire process can be repeated to no significant damage
to your carpet.
