Before you become a lunatic while choosing the best carpet cleaning company in Perth, it is important to understand the various types of carpet cleaning methods.

Hot Water Extraction Cleaning This is commonly known as steam carpet cleaning. Hot water extraction cleaning is done using pressurised hot water to agitate the carpet fibre and dissolving the dirt hidden in the carpet.

The process typically involves application of cleaning agent on soiled surface, agitation of carpet with brush and followed by rinsing. The cleaning agent is left to settle on the carpet for a short duration, and then it is washed by a cleaning equipment to rinse out thoroughly. Finally, the carpet is left to dry in the room. Most cleaning companies advise that all kinds of commercial cleaning must be performed late in the afternoon so that the carpet can be left to dry over night and office operation can resume back to normal the next morning.


Carpet Shampooing

Shampooing is effective when cleaning heavily soiled carpets. But the technology has a disadvantage – leaving behind a high amount of wet foam residues that takes a long time to dry. The residues become sticky as soon as they dry because rinsing is not applied after shampooing. Remember, shampooing is effective on carpets which are open to dry air or receive a high amount of artificial air to dry.


Bonnet Cleaning

This process mainly involves cleaning the top part of the carpet using a heavy duty motorised machine with a spinning pad immersed in a cleaning solution. Bonnet provides a good solution for surface cleaning. This process is generally popular as a quick fix solution in heavy footfall areas. When you are applying bonneting, make sure to administer it on a daily basis as the carpet does not get cleaned deeply. Dirt beneath the carpet often emerges back to the surface within a short period of time.


Dry Carpet Cleaning

Dry carpet cleaning is one of the latest cleaning technologies and has gained a lot of popularity and approvals. Most of the carpet cleaners prefer this method as it is most effective in terms of performance and convenience as well as reduced drying time. Dry carpet cleaning is the application of cleaning compound or powder in the bottom of the carpet using a motorized rotating brush machine. This equipment opens up the carpet fibres and allows the powder to set inside, which results in deep cleaning.


Encapsulation This process use synthetic detergents as a base that can crystallise into powder when dry. Loosened dirt particles on the carpet fibre is encapsulated into powder when the detergent dries and, finally, they are vacuumed or brushed while cleaning.

Encapsulation does not need much water which means shorter drying time compared to shampooing. Moreover, encapsulation process has been appreciated by those who like using environmental friendly products. The detergents that are applied are less chemically bound and this is why the process is preferred by most people in Perth. Now you must be sure enough in choosing the appropriate form of cleaning technology that makes your floors shine. Visit: www.perthcarpetmaster.com.au Phone: 0449230970
