Commercial Carpet Cleaners, Shampooers, & Steamers

What Are Carpet Cleaning Machines Used For?

Carpet takes on a lot of wear and tear. Every footstep brings with it a plethora of dirt, grime, and germs. When you think of carpet much like a sweater that everyone wipes their shoes or bare feet on, it can be a disgusting and daunting thought. But, with commercial carpet cleaners, carpet steamers, and carpet extractors, you can breathe new life into even the most worn-out carpeting and upholstery.

Commercial carpet cleaning machines are used to clean and restore carpeting and upholstery too, in some cases, a like-new finish. In many cases, professional carpet cleaning machines can cause a noticeable improvement in cleanliness and overall look and feel for even the dirtiest and dingiest carpets.

How Do Commercial Carpet Cleaners Work?

Carpet washing machines generally come in two variants: hot water extractors (often referred to as “carpet shampooers”) and steam cleaners. Both find commercial use in food service establishments such as catering halls and restaurants, but plenty of other industries use these such as janitorial, hospitality and hotel, auto detailing, and much more. Below, you’ll find additional information on how each type of carpet cleaning machine works.

Hot Water Extractors

Hot water extractors are true workhorses. Most establishments looking for a deep clean choose this type of commercial carpet cleaner because it injects a pressurized stream of hot water into the carpet, usually with some type of added cleaning solution with surfactant properties to lift away dirt and grime, and then vacuums it up immediately before the water has the chance to cool too much.

Carpet extractors, as they’re also often called, do lay down more water than steam cleaners, meaning that the carpeting or upholstery cleaned with them usually needs some time to dry off. But because of the high volume of water that is shot out and then immediately vacuumed up, these types of professional carpet cleaner does provide a very deep clean.

Steam Cleaners

Steam cleaners are multipurpose cleaning units that can double not just as professional carpet cleaning machines, but also as multi-surface sanitizing and cleaning units. That’s because while many carpet extractors operate at right around the boiling point of water, steam cleaners superheat water into steam, which, when used correctly, can kill most viruses and bacteria.

Due to the heat and pressure steam cleaners offer, they can clean carpeting and upholstery quite well and also generally operate “dryer” than commercial hot water extractors. This, in combination with the fact that they can be used on hard surfaces for sanitizing and cleaning, makes them popular with establishments looking for an all-in-one cleaning tool.
