Green carpet cleaning Process
Wednesday, July 15th, 2009Green Carpet Cleaning, Which method is really green!
Encapsulation Carpet cleaning and Traditional “ Steam Cleaning” or also referred to as” Hot water Extraction”, also labeled “Truck mounted cleaning”!
Water conservation now a requirement in California! So new eco minded methods are not just a good idea they are necessity! While most steam cleaners require 60 plus gallons of water or more to clean a home, Absolute Carpet Care’s Cleaning System can clean the same home using only 2 gallons of water mixed with our encapsulating crystal polymer! It’s tough on dirt but safe on the earth! Competitors say green but at absolute Carpet Care We live green. We use non toxic, family safe, products, that contain no solvents, no harsh chemicals. In the average house, we will use only 5% of the water a typical truck mount (hot water extraction) carpet cleaner uses. That means that for every fifty homes cleaned, Absolute Carpet Care’s Cleaning System will use 100 gallons of water or less, while other systems will use up to 2,000 gallons. Steam Cleaning companies finish a job with dirty water extracted from your carpets which, is considered waste water! Proper disposal is a requirement however due to additional costs of doing this properly some unscrupulous companies have discharge spouts that can release this waste water underneath the vehicle so proper disposal can be avoided thus cutting costs.
Truck mounted carpet cleaning systems require their vehicles to continue running throughout the duration of the job in order to provide power to the machines being used to clean your home. The vehicles are often running for multiple hours for a single job, releasing large amounts of exhaust into the air. Our process fights energy waste, our portable carpet cleaning machine is powered by the standard power outlets at the cleaning site! No running vehicles mean no pollution. Truck mounted cleaning systems also require you to leave your doors open throughout the entire carpet cleaning process in order to direct multiple tubes and hoses into your home from the vehicle. This allows the warm air in your home to escape in cooler months and the cool air to escape in warmer months, requiring you to use more energy to re-cool or re-heat your home. Our portable cleaning machines allow you to keep your doors closed throughout the entire carpet cleaning process. Other systems that soak the carpet with gallons of water require the use of machines designed to extract the excess water. More energy is needed to power the extraction machines, which still leave your carpets wet and often requiring 24-48 hours to dry. Because Absolute Carpet Care uses a low moisture, Encapsulation carpet cleaning system, your carpets will dry on their own in under an hour.
