Carbonation produces a surprising amount of force, as anyone who has opened a shaken bottle of soda knows. Chem-Dry has harnessed this power and used it to create an excellent cleaning solution for carpets. Its carbonated formula is able to clean carpets without leaving behind the excessive wetness or sticky residue that is often left by traditional steam or hot water extraction methods.
Another benefit of getting professional carpet cleaning in Oklahoma City that relies on a carbonated cleaner is that the solution is non-toxic to kids and pets. You won’t have to worry about your toddler playing on the floor or the fact that your dog is touching the carpet with four exposed feet! The mildness of the solution is also good for adults with allergies, who are often bothered by the chemicals or scents left behind by traditional cleaners.
The process used for cleaning with this solution is also a great improvement over traditional methods. If you’ve ever had hot water extraction done, you have likely experienced having it look great at first, only to end up looking like nothing at all was done just a couple of days later! This is caused by a phenomenon known as “wicking.” As the excessive water dries, it is wicked up from the base of the carpet. Alas, the solvents involved mean that dirt that was hidden deep down comes up along with that water. The end result is that dirt that was once hidden is pulled up to the surface, so your carpet ends up looking as bad or worse than it did before the cleaners came.
Professional carpet cleaning in Oklahoma City that is done using the carbonated extraction cleaning process does not have this problem because it doesn’t involve saturating the carpet with excessive water. Therefore, the carpet will dry without dragging dirt to the tops of the fibers. You are left with a surface that looks great and will continue to look that way until normal wear causes it to become soiled again. It will also smell great since there won’t be enough water to allow a musty smell to develop. Soon, you’ll be able to enjoy a clean, dry carpet once again.
