This is because truck mounted hot water extraction cleaning not only improves the appearance of the carpet, it refreshes the texture: it literally “fluffs” up the fiber. They recommend hot water extraction only as a part of their warranty because it is the only cleaning method that improves texture retention.

 he Steam Way method depends primarily upon natural hot water and vacuum extraction to clean the carpet. This eliminates the need for massive amounts of chemicals, solvents, and carbonation used in some other methods. The Steam Way method leaves the least amount of chemical and soil residues so there is no threat of premature wear, airborne contamination, or rapid re-soiling. Over 50 carpet mills and fiber producers recommend, endorse, or refer Steam Way professional cleaners. So-called dry cleaning methods often brag about how fast the carpet dries after it is cleaned.he truth is, there is no such thing as “dry” cleaning a carpet. All five major methods employ the use of moisture in the cleaning process.

ou see, when cleaning an extremely soiled carpet, if the job is to get the carpet as clean as you can, then with most methods you have to go over and over the carpet again and again. During this process, the carpet ends up wetter than it did with a “wet” cleaning method. Carbonated CHEMICAL DRY cleaning (Spin Bonnet) uses an abrasive spinning pad. The largest mill in the country, Shaw industries states“the spinning bonnet may distort the pile of a cut pile carpet, leaving distinct swirl marks. It may be used as a supplement to hot water extraction on high density loop pile carpets, but not as a substitute… It should not be used on cut pile carpets”.
t has no physical extraction, so as Philadelphia Carpet says, “It has very limited capability for soil removal and often leaves most of the detergent in the pile… Most complaints of excessive soiling have been found to be related to improper employment of this cleaning system.” 
nlike some other cleaning methods, the Steam Way method of cleaning carpets will make your carpets look, smell, and feel better and stay clean longer. A water softener is also used to enhance the cleaning process. Periodic Professional Cleaning with Steam Way Truck Mounted Hot Water Extraction will keep your carpet looking and performing as you intended when you bought it, giving you a very good return on your substantial investment. All major fiber producers recommend periodic professional cleaning to maintain the value and beauty of carpeting.
“As a general rule, carpet should be cleaned every 6 to 18 months.
