HOST DRY Cleaning Vs. Steam Cleaning

Dry vs. Wet Carpet Cleaning Comparison

When carpets are traditionally steam cleaned, a large amount of very hot water is forced into the carpet under high pressure, and then sucked back out along with the dirt. The extremely hot (between 160 to 200 degrees °F ) water can damage the built in factory stain resistant protection on your carpets, not to mention potentially damaging hardwood floors underneath or furniture above. And if not done properly, dirt attracting residue can be left in carpet to attract new soil.
