Steam cleaning benefits ? |
The use of steam as a cleaning agent enables to :
- A quicker clean up on all flat surfaces/bases with a complex geometry such as heaters, trolleys, wheels, beds, siphons…
- An easier, quicker and more efficient clean up on surfaces or corners usually hard to reach such as windowsills, skirtings, skirting angles, door frames…
- A clean up of electrical and electronical parts following a specific and safe procedure, such as switchs, electric plugs, lamp bases, motor units…
- An environmental-friendly and cheaper clean up: the detergent is now only used in half of the applications so water is used on its own in the other 50% of the applications making the process quicker for the operator (no need to dry up with the sucking up).
- A more attractive clean up : healthier and less tiring for the operator.

THE METHOD USING STEAM |

|
| 4 steps |
2 steps |
| 1. Mechanical solied-waste removal by: brooming, scraping, collecting, clearing, sucking up. |
1. Mechanical solid-waste removal by: brooming, scraping, collecting, clearing, sucking up. |
| 2. Prewash : by humidifying to ease stain unsticking |
2. Prewash : clean up and rinsing with sucking up : steam action enables to combine these 3 steps in 1. |
| 3. Clean up : by unsticking stain from the treated/targeted surfaces by a combined process using heat, mechanical action, contact lapse and chemistry : water+detergent (see below « cleaning circle »). |
| 4. Rinsing : in some cases, to remove the solutions « waste-detergent » from the surfaces. |
