What Are The Benefits and Limits of Carpet Cleaning In Your Home

You might already know that carpet cleaning is more natural and often far more effective than other forms of cleaning. But how far do the benefits of carpet cleaning really go? Can you use a carpet cleaner on just any surface? If you’re wondering these things yourself, The Steam Team can help.


Carpet Cleaning Benefits


Because carpet cleaning only uses water and heat, you don’t have to worry about any of the risks that chemical cleaners might bring. Nearly all household surfaces are properly sanitized with carpet cleaners, more than just the percentage of clean that most chemical cleaners offer. Because the steam evaporates, surfaces will dry faster when cleaned with carpet cleaners. Carpet cleaners are also excellent at cleaning those tough to reach spots and removing hardened substances like wax or glue.


Carpet Cleaning Limits


Carpet cleaning works wonders on nearly every surface of a home, but for some materials you may need to pay attention and think of the effect that water and heat may have. For example, steam cleaning is great for carpets, upholstery, area rugs , and even curtains, but for all of these surfaces you need to make sure you’re using an upholstery attachment. 


For floors, tiles, ceramic and metal fixtures steam cleaning works great to kill germs, mold, and fungus, so long as a floor attachment is used. With a window attachment, you can easily clean glass and windows. Even kitchen appliances can be cleaned with handheld steam cleaners. 


The only materials that can’t be steam cleaned are paper and cardboard products, delicate fabrics and anything covered in water-based paint.
