How we clean Carpets Hot water extraction method
Although there is an industrial cleaning process that is in fact steam cleaning, in the context of carpet cleaning, “steam cleaning” is usually a misnomer for or mis-characterization of the hot water extraction cleaning method.
The hot water extraction cleaning method uses equipment that sprays heated water (not steam), with added cleaning chemicals, on the carpet while simultaneously vacuuming the sprayed water along with any dislodged and dissolved dirt.
Many carpet manufacturers recommend professional hot water extraction as the most effective carpet cleaning method.
Benefits of hot water extraction
Most used method

Deep cleaning method
It is a deeper clean method better than its alternatives, namely shampooing and dry cleaning, that only serves to clean the surface of a carpet. In fact, it is also much more effective at removing stains and bad odors than ordinary surface cleaners.
