At Quality Care Carpet Cleaning we pride ourselves in being IICRC Certified.  This means we understand all carpet cleaning methods and fibers in this industry.  Also through our formal training where we have received our education we know that most carpet mills highly recommend you have your carpets professionally cleaned every 6 -12 months with hot water extraction.  As a matter of fact if you don’t have them cleaned and protected every year it will void our carpet warranty.   The reason for having your carpets cleaned often is mainly prolong the life of your carpet as well as the appearance.   Over time sharp dirt edges will cut away at the gleam of your carpet fibers.  This is known as carpet ware.

Lets say you just bought your carpet a year ago and you might be asking yourself what types of methods are best for your new carpet?    It Depends on a few factor, in most cases there are two options that vary in difference.  The questions you need to ask is how quick and thorough you like your carpets cleaned.  Below I have listed two forms of carpet cleaning that are the most preferred.  One is called is the Spin bonnet cleaning and the other is called hot water extraction.

Spin bonnet cleaning:

Some people prefer spin bonnet cleaning otherwise known as “dry cleaning” because of how quick the carpet dries after the clean is finished.   The way this works is by spraying a detergent or solvent on the top surface of the carpet fibers.  Then with an absorbent pad attached to it a rotating machine spins at high RPM to agitate the carpet.   By doing so it then transfers spots and dirt to the bonnet pad.  Mutable pads are replaced during the cleaning process.   The amount of pads replaced can vary depending on the carpets condition.   This method is preferred by customers who are looking for fast for fast dry times.  However not this method is not very effective for high traffic areas as well as heavily soiled areas.  Also what makes this method ineffective is properly removing the residue of the cleaner.  This is where Hot Water Extraction does a better job at rinsing out what is put down as long as the process is done with a pre-spray and acidic rinse.  I will explain more below

Hot Water Extraction: 

At Quality Care Carpet Cleaning we pride ourselves in using the hot water extraction method for carpet cleaning.  This is also known as “steam cleaning.  What is very interesting is eight out of ten carpet manufactures recommend this form of cleaning over the bonnet method.    The reason for this is because of the deep cleaning it provides.    Truck mounted hot water extraction can create heat up to 220-250 degree of hot water with a water force ranging from 400 to 500 psi.  Then we pre-spray and the product giving it good dwell time.  Then we a carpet cleaning wand where we hook up its powerful suction and solution line to spay with jets the hot water.  This is good for deep fiber penetration removing damaging soils and unwanted spots.  Hot water extraction can keep your carpets looking more beautiful and lasting longer.   Another reason hot water is preferred is because of how well it can both sanitize and clean your carpets of almost every unwanted partial.
