How To Clean An Office Carpet

Many thanks for your comments. That's how I was before I used this particular product. I too would have made similar ones until I saw and used this system. Are you by any chance in the USA? For the record, we also use hot water extraction and HOST dry extraction systems, but nothing comes close to this on low profile commercial carpets. We actually get brought in by clients to put right what others have done with HWE. Here in the UK, many clients are now specifying this method in their specifications as the only method for carpet cleaning contracts. I've been in the business for nineteen years and I'd never seen anything like it before. I made the importer demonstrate it in a few "real life" situations before I stumped up the cash! This particular system, known as Dry Fusion is not available in the US due to the voltage difference (110 as opposed to 240 in the UK and Australia). It was developed in Australia where environmental guidelines are very strict. Both pre-spray and cleaning fluid are nuetral (PH 7.2) and you will have to take my word that the chemistry is very sophisticated. The heat is adjustable via a thermostat (patented system) so is varied according to carpet type. As for burning, the cleaning chemical contains a lubricant that helps the pad glide over the floor. This does allow the pads to be wrung out and so allows quick drying times. It also contains two protectors. Again you will have to take my word that carpets definitely take longer to resoil. You may not get to clean places as often but the clients love it. You are right about the pilelifter. it is used purely to remove dry soil beforehand. This video was shot in December 2007 and there is no resoiling showing in this office, six months later. It may be based around a rotary machine and may use pads but it is a totally different beast to bonnet mopping. As I said earlier, if you are in the US, you will almost certainly not have seen this system in operation. Thanks for your comments, it's good to know someone has the consumers' interests at heart.

Tomg14 is partially right. The pile lifter is for the dry dirt and as far as driving in. Not quite. More like soil transferance. If you are trying to put a carpet into service quickly this works fine. We use this method in our offices and every other cleaning we run a neutralizer rinse after bonneting. We also use more of a wet pad than they showed.
