Different types of carpet cleaning to choose from

Before you go for carpet cleaning it is important to understand the different types of carpet cleaning used by different companies that provide carpet cleaning in Melbourne because not every carpet cleaning method may be suitable for your carpet.

Thus, here are different types of carpet cleaning
  1. Hot water extraction cleaning: Hot water extraction commonly known as steam carpet cleaning use high pressured hot water to agitate the carpet fibre and dissolve dirt in the carpet. It typically involves application of cleaning agent on the soiled surface, agitation of carpet with brush followed by rinsing. After cleaning agent settle in the carpet, the carpet is washed by a carpet cleaning equipment to rinse off the cleaning agent thoroughly and is left to dry in room or air conditioned temperature.
  2. Encapsulation: Foam encapsulation use synthetic detergents as a base that crystallizes into powder form when dries. Loosened dirt particles in carpet fibre are encapsulated into powder when the applied cleaning foam dries and is vacuumed or brushed when the foam dries after cleaning. This type of cleaning technique has overtaken carpet shampooing technology as it uses less water during cleaning which result in shorter drying time compared to the carpet shampooing. It is very suitable for those who want to go for environmental friendly carpet cleaning because less chemical residue is left behind after carpet cleaning compared to carpet shampooing.
  3. Dry Carpet Cleaning: It is the latest cleaning technology preferred by Melbourne carpet cleaner because of its effective cleaning performance. It involves application of cleaning compound or powder into the bottom of carpet using a motorized counter rotating brush machine to open up the carpet fibre and allow the compound to settle inside resulting in thorough deep carpet cleaning.
