Dry Carpet Cleaning vs. Steam Carpet Cleaning – Which is Better?

Dry Carpet Cleaning vs. Steam Carpet Cleaning – Which is Better?

Dry Carpet Cleaning
The carpet cleaning industry has advanced over the years allowing us to develop modern low maintenance carpet cleaning systems that are also eco-friendly. For instance, dry cleaning, by applying this process you cut down on dry time to 30 minutes verses 1 to 2 days like steam cleaning. By using the dry-cleaning method, your carpet will also repel dirt allowing your carpet to stay cleaner for a much longer period. The equipment needed to dry-clean carpets Is much less expensive than the equipment used for steam cleaning. Dry cleaning your carpet is also eco-friendly because most cleaning agents used for dry cleaning are chemical and residue free. This method leaves your carpet feeling soft, fresh, and clean overall.
 
Steam Carpet Cleaning
In some instances, steam carpet cleaning, can be problematic depending on the situation. In order to get a carpet completely dry you must go over the cleaned area up to 16 times to extract all the water. It is also not as eco-friendly as dry cleaning your carpets. It takes a lot more energy to power the machines, and they use more industrialized cleaning products Because it also takes up to 1- days for the carpet to dry completely this could cause mold and mildew to develop in the padding if you don’t use a carpet cleaning service that will take the extra time to go over the carpet to extract all the water.
 
So which cleaning method is best?
Choosing which carpet cleaning method is best is based on the individual’s home situation. If you are looking at cleaning a home that has severe water damage from flooding, leaking pipes, leaking roof, or other water sources then steam cleaning is what is 100 percent recommended. If it is just routine residential or commercial cleanings, then dry organic carpet cleaning is a good method to go with as well. We can do our best to put the “new” back into your carpet.
