How to Select Commercial Carpet Cleaners

Heated Carpet Extractor
Commercial carpet cleaners are difficult to select if you do not know what you are looking for. Carpet cleaning machines have a variety of pressure levels, temperature options, and accessories. Many machines, advertised as commercial, are no better than low-grade home-use products that break down or suffer wear and tear under extreme operating conditions of commercial business.

The buyer must select the right dealer. Daimer® specializes in commercial cleaning equipment. Daimer®’s commercial carpet cleaners are made of superior materials. The heating element is durable stainless steel. This is more sturdy and corrosion-resistant compared to aluminum, which other brands use. Daimer® offers proper warranties on carpet cleaning machines.

Commercial carpet cleaners should have the right accessories. Daimer®’s machines, such as XTreme Power® XPH-9650, have a 12-inch dual jet wand. It has a grip handle to prevent slipping. Additional stair and upholstery wands are also sold on request.

High temperatures are a plus if you have to remove heavy stains and dirt from carpets. XTreme Power® XPH-9650 reaches temperatures as high as 210°F. This powerful machine has adjustable pressure levels of up to 500 psi, and massive solution and recovery tanks.

To increase productivity in commercial carpet cleaning and car wash businesses, many buyers purchase machines with auto-dump and auto-fill options. Commercial carpet cleaners from Daimer® feature low flow technology. This feature helps reduce the amount of water used during the cleaning process and prevents germs and bacteria from forming within damp carpets.

Benefits of Non-heated Commercial Carpet Cleaners


Portable Carpet Cleaner Extractor

The difference between heated and non-heated commercial carpet cleaners is that heated machines contain a heating element and provide an output temperature up to 210°F. Non-heated machines do not have a heating element and cannot provide heated output, although many can accept already heated water up to 210°F. While it is true that heated output has a higher cleaning power than non-heated output, one cannot say that the cleaning power and utility of non-heated machines are limited.

The following are some benefits of non-heated commercial carpet cleaners and some tips to get the best out of these machines.

Benefits
Carpet cleaners without heating elements are often cheaper than heated machines. Because they do not have heating elements to maintain, their maintenance costs are often cheaper as well. Heating elements are one of the most frequently replaced items in heated carpet cleaners. The absence of heating elements in non-heated commercial carpet cleaners helps owners to keep maintenance costs down.

Experienced cleaning workers know that not all cleaning tasks require a high output temperature. A mixture of cold water and a good cleaning solution, such as Daimer®’s Eco-Green® Carpet Care & Upholstery Cleaner, can do the job in many cases.

Useful Tips
Daimer® offers a variety of non-heated commercial carpet cleaners in their XTreme Power® series. Such machines as the XTreme Power® XPC-9200 feature pressure levels up to 220 psi and low flow technology, which allows carpets to dry in about 6 hours.
