Why professional cleaning equipment?
Reasons for seeking professional furniture cleaning services can include various stains resulting from children's mischief, damage caused by pets, the aftermath of home celebrations, or preparing a rental property.
Of course, you can try to clean damaged upholstered furniture yourself—there are risks and benefits to this approach.
Yes, it may seem more economical at first glance since you don't have to spend money or wait for a professional. However, there are downsides: without professional knowledge, it will be difficult to choose an effective cleaner, and a professional's work is always done more efficiently and quickly. Emergency and routine furniture cleanings extend the lifespan of the furniture, remove odors, stains, and dirt, and maintain comfort and coziness in the home.
The term "dry cleaning" most often refers to cleaning furniture using an extraction method.
In this case, the cleaning process consists of several stages:
- A chemical solution is applied to the surface;
- The solvent works for a certain period of time;
- The solution is vacuum-extracted along with the dirt.
You won’t need to wash the upholstered furniture by hand or treat it with water, which is much simpler. Cleaning professionals correctly select the chemical composition for a specific fabric. Eco-friendly, hypoallergenic solvents that cause no inconvenience to customers help remove old stains, unpleasant odors, and internal and external dirt.
The specialist consistently cleans the surface of the furniture using unique tools. High-performance and quality furniture cleaning is impossible without effective, high-quality, modern, and multifunctional equipment.
Recently, "wet vacuums" have appeared in the cleaning industry. They are much more effective than manual furniture cleaning. Even the most stubborn stains are within the capabilities of this new technology. The use of powerful extractors allows the cleaning to be done several times more effectively than with ordinary household extractors.
The advantages of the new devices include:
- Excellent durability of the body and components.
- Economical use of cleaning agents and solutions in many models.
- Multifunctional attachments that make it very convenient to clean any surface of the furniture, including upholstery in the most hard-to-reach corners.
- Continuous operation throughout the warranty period.
- Relatively low cost.
Extractors are special tools widely used for professional cleaning of furniture, car interiors, carpets, and various leather, fabric, and wooden surfaces. An extractor, commonly referred to as a "wet vacuum," is based on a pneumatic principle and involves the process of suction and extraction.
It consists of a water extractor with an additional tank for cleaning solution, which is supplied by a special pump, and is equipped with a double hose and a nozzle.
The device simultaneously allows spraying and collecting water.
How does this "technology of tomorrow" work?
The extractor sprays the solution through a special nozzle onto the surface of the furniture under pressure, using a low-power pump. Then a vacuum nozzle is used to dry the surface being cleaned. The extractor uses a diaphragm pump to create a vacuum. The pump easily extracts coarse and fine suspended particles from sand, glass, and soil.
The reservoir is filled with water and furniture cleaning agents.
It enhances the results during the cleaning process, making the surface clean, smooth, and streak-free.
A wet vacuum differs from a regular one in terms of power, shape, material, design principle, and price compared to household appliances used for manual cleaning.
The higher the pressure in the extraction pump, the better the upholstery fibers of the furniture are cleaned.
In addition to cleaning dirty furniture, specialists use the extractor with various attachments for:
- Collecting dust, including from furniture surfaces;
- Efficiently extracting and suctioning liquids from the surface and depths of fabric layers;
- Washing walls and floors;
- Cleaning and humidifying the air in rooms;
- Facilitating the washing of windows, showcases, and glass surfaces.
- Modern models not only effectively remove dirt from upholstery but also eliminate unpleasant, persistent odors, giving indoor spaces a fresh scent.
The wide range of attachments provided to users offers great versatility to extractor vacuums. Models of wet vacuums vary in tank capacity, ranging from 20 to 60 liters, and their power accordingly.
The technical equipment of cleaning companies is at a high level and allows for effective furniture cleaning without negative consequences, quickly and with high quality. Manual cleaning is gradually giving way to new methods and technologies with modern equipment.
