A Guide to Commercial Carpet Cleaners


Commercial carpet cleaners are used in hospitals, hotels, restaurants, shopping malls, and various office buildings. The main function of these machines, as their name suggests, is to clean carpets, mats, seat upholstery, and other soft surfaces.

How They Clean

The area being cleaned must first be pre-sprayed with a carpet cleaning solution and allowed to sit and penetrate into the carpet. Then, the carpet cleaner injects water or a mixture of water and cleaning solution into the carpet. The operator uses a wand to agitate the surface, loosening the stain. The last part of the process is the extraction of the liquid and residues, which eliminates the stain from the carpet.

Tips to Buy

Mostly all commercial carpet cleaners function in a similar way. What makes each machine unique is the use of specialized technologies.

One of the most common issues during carpet cleaning is the amount of water used by the machine and passed onto the carpet. Damp carpets are prone to mold and mildew growth and are likely to attract additional dirt when wet. Daimer® offers commercial carpet cleaners with low flow technology that help reduce the amount of water consumed during the cleaning process. This low flow technology enables limitations in water consumption without reducing the cleaning power.

Also take into consideration whether the machine needs to be heated or not. While the power of heat is an added advantage in removing stains, it can also damage delicate fabrics such as Persian rugs, silk, and wool. Instead of using harsh chemicals that may also damage fabrics, Daimer® retails Eco-Green® Carpet Care & Upholstery Cleaner for a safe alternative to hazardous chemicals.
