What is Hot Water Extraction Carpet Cleaning: The Certified Choice for a Deeper Clean

You may have heard of hot water extraction carpet cleaning, but do you know what it truly entails? Often referred to as “steam cleaning,” this method is not just a basic service; it is a professional, certified process that goes far beyond a simple surface clean.

At Technique Flooring And Restoration, we believe that your carpet is a significant investment that deserves superior quality care. With over 35 years of commitment and experience, our IICRC-certified technicians utilize state-of-the-art hot water extraction cleaning to provide the deepest, most thorough clean possible.

Understanding the Hot Water Extraction Process

So, what is hot water extraction carpet cleaning? It’s a method that uses high-pressure hot water to agitate and dissolve dirt and grime that are deeply embedded in your carpet fibers. This is a multi-step process that requires professional-grade equipment and certified expertise to perform correctly.

Step 1: Pre-Inspection and Pre-Treatment:

Our experienced professionals begin with a thorough inspection of your carpet. We identify high-traffic areas, heavily soiled spots, and specific stains.

Based on this assessment, we apply a professional-grade cleaning solution to pre-treat these areas. This solution helps to break down dirt and oils, preparing them for extraction.

Step 2: The Extraction:

This is the core of the process. We use a powerful machine that sprays hot water, along with a cleaning agent, deep into the carpet fibers at high pressure. Simultaneously, a powerful vacuum works to extract the water and the loosened dirt and grime.

The combination of hot water, cleaning solution, agitation, and powerful suction is what makes this method so effective.

Step 3: Post-Inspection:

After the cleaning is complete, we perform a post-inspection to ensure all the areas have been treated to our superior quality standards.

We will address any remaining spots and provide a final grooming of the carpet to help the fibers stand upright.

Professional Hot Water Extraction Cleaning vs. Other Methods

While you can rent machines that claim to “steam clean,” the results are simply not comparable to a professional hot water extraction cleaning.

• Power: Professional-grade equipment has significantly more power in both the water pressure and the vacuum suction. This means the hot water penetrates deeper into the carpet and the powerful vacuum removes more water and more dirt, leading to a faster drying time and a cleaner carpet.
• Heat: Professional machines heat the water to a much higher temperature than consumer-grade machines. This high heat is crucial for killing bacteria, dust mites, and other allergens that may be living in your carpet.
• Expertise: Our IICRC-certified technicians have the expert knowledge to handle different types of carpet fibers and various stains. They know the right amount of solution to use and the proper technique to avoid over-saturating the carpet, which can lead to mold and mildew. This certified expertise ensures excellent service and a 100% satisfaction guarantee.

The Benefits of a Truly Clean Carpet

The benefits of a professional hot water extraction go beyond a visually clean carpet.

• Improved Air Quality: By removing deeply embedded dirt, dust, and allergens, professional cleaning can significantly improve the air quality in your home.
• Extended Carpet Life: A professional cleaning removes abrasive soils that can wear down your carpet fibers, extending the life of your carpet and protecting your investment.
• Enhanced Appearance: Professional hot water extraction cleaning restores your carpet’s original vibrancy and texture, making it look and feel new again.
