Carpet Cleaning - Restorative Hot Water Extraction

Carpet that has not been properly maintained may need a deep, restorative cleaning. This is performed through hot water extraction (sometimes called steam cleaning) and may include rotary shampoo cleaning or agitation of the preconditioner with a counter-rotating brush machine.

 

In order to perform the best job, a technician must follow the “cleaning pie” as taught in the IICRC CCT/CCMT classes. The cleaning pie consists of four parts: time, agitation, chemical, and temperature.

 COMMON CONCERNS
• Dirty or stained grout
• Damaged or missing tile or grout
• Corners & edges not clean
• Solution on baseboards, furniture and
walls

Basic Steps:

§ Clear floor of items that will be moved out of service area.
§ Use putty knife to remove dried on crusty material, stickers, etc.
§ Vacuum floor with back pack vacuum to remove soil from tile and
grout.
§ Place wet floor sign at entrances and set safety perimeter with
caution tape.
§ Protect surfaces not being cleaned with plastic so they are not
damaged by splashes.
§ Apply solution to floor with low pressure pump-up sprayer. Keep it
wet, do not let it dry out. Work on small areas you can manage.
§ Let solution stand 5-10 minutes.
§ Use high pressure wash and extract solution with SX-12 floor
wand. High pressure wash the floor in a circular motion, side to
side, overlapping the strokes made by the SX-12 floor wand
