When you hear the phrase ‘deep carpet cleaning,’ you may think of steam cleaning or dry cleaning carpets. In either case, you could be correct. The truth is that there are multiple techniques which are considered deep carpet cleaning, many of them provided by your local carpet cleaning service in Jacksonville. In this article, we’ll look at what the phrase means and what options are available to you.
Deep Carpet Cleaning
A deep cleaning of your carpet simply means that the cleaning process gets down into the fibers of the carpet and cleans out all the dirt and debris that might be hanging out there. Vacuuming is a surface carpet cleaning, while wet cleaning or dry foam cleaning gets deeper into the carpet and gets rid of everything that you’d prefer not to be there.
Wet Cleaning
This can be called steam cleaning or hot water extraction cleaning, each of which involves applying a chemical that turns dirt and soil into a liquid substance. The water used is nearly boiling and injected into the carpet. After it does its job for 15 to 20 minutes, a vacuum is used to remove the soil that was pulled up. The only major complaint with this cleaning option is that it takes a long time to dry. It can also cost more than some other options.
Dry Rotary Cleaning
When choosing a dry carpet cleaning service in Jacksonville, a powder is mixed with other ingredients and then spread on the carpet. It is applied to the carpet fibers with a machine that has rotating brushes. After the powder absorbs the dirt from the carpet, it sets for 10 to 15 minutes. It is vacuumed up following this process. It’s a quick and simple system, but it doesn’t get as deep into the carpet as other methods. It can also leave powder in some carpets which may cause buildup.
Dry Foam Cleaning
With dry foam, the cleaning agent is placed on the carpet. The agent is then whipped into a foam which is worked into the carpet fibers with a special machine. After it has had time to work, it is vacuumed up. This is a fast option with only a small amount of moisture to dry. However, it often cannot get below the surface of the carpet.
