Before I explain to you what Dry Foam is let us first decide what we want to accomplished during a carpet cleaning. We want to remove the soil, make your carpets look absolutely clean and leave you with zero soap or chemical residues.

So, in your home with a nice thick carpet that you like to walk on with bare feet, sit on, lie on or have the kids & pets play on, why would you want DRY FOAM chemical residue or soil left behind? Could it be because you read someone’s FEAR MARKETING that had the same old scare that ” Water is Evil & Dry is Good”?  I do provide Dry Foam Extraction Carpet Cleaning but I do my best to educate the customer with the facts. I do get a lot of Dry Foam Shampoo requests. Once I explain the process the customer will elect to have us Steam Clean the carpets. They are often worried of long dry times & wet carpet backings that will cause damage to wood sub-floors. This is not a problem because we don’t get the backing wet & we get the carpets dryer than we could ever get them if we did use the Dry Foam method. Quality Truckmount Carpet Cleaning achieves rapid dry times today when accomplished by a professional.

Every Carpet Cleaning should have Health as the first priority! That means removing the soils and leaving no residues in the carpet. Leaving the residue means new soil is attracted, it also means foreign substances are left behind that you will eventually breathe as it goes airborne.

Our procedure provides you with:

1. Healthy Carpet Cleaning service, Zero Residue left behind, total soil removal.
2. Carpet Cleaning that is gentle on carpet fibers as to not distort or unwind carpet fibers, in other words we don’t a damaged carpet.
3. Carpets that dry fast in just hours & not days. We don’t want several gallons of water left in the carpet after we leave.

What is Dry Foam Carpet cleaning? First let’s define Dry Foam Shampoo – it’s a shampoo of various types from encapsulation shampoo to plain old cheap sticky soap shampoo. The shampoo is mixed up or generated into a foam, since it is whipped up into a foam it was assigned the term Dry Shampoo for some reason!

There are two (2) forms: Dry Foam Extraction & Dry Foam Shampoo (there is zero extraction).

The Dry Foam extraction system that has been used for the last 30 plus years extracts 1/3 of all shampoo solution  applied. The rest remains in the carpet along with the dirt. If it is an encapsulating shampoo then it is believed that the remaining dirt is surrounded & encapsulated by the shampoo. When it dries it is claimed that you remove it when you vacuum the carpets 24 hours later.

The Dry Foam Shampoo (non-extraction) method uses a Floor Buffer machine with a Foam Generator that makes Dry Foam & scrubs it into the carpet leaving it behind and with the soil. Sometimes a nylon bonnet is used to absorb some of the soil & chemical shampoo and most of it remains behind.

Since residential carpets are much more plush than low level looped commercial glue down carpets there are just too many places residues can get trapped & so many places soil can hide. For this reason we Flush & Rinse these carpets clean via Truckmount Steam Cleaning. This is Deep Carpet Cleaning.

Dry Foam Carpet Cleaning takes anywhere from 1-6 hours to dry depending on the carpet fiber & whether it is commercial or residential. Truckmount carpet cleaning is about the same when done professionally.

Why is Dry Foam still used? Low start-up cost for the carpet cleaning business, it is not very labor intensive & more money can be made faster. We have it because we have a full tool box, many times we use this system in conjunction with other methods or as Power Scrub step prior to Truckmount Steam Cleaning on a very dirty job.

Our experience is that we leave 3% of the moisture behind. Our High Flow Flush & Rinse system ensures that your carpets are flushed from top to bottom, you can forget any residue being left behind. With this system carpets are left soft & fluffy instead of hard & crunchy.

Let’s focus on the word EXTRACTION, this is what Truckmount systems do! That means the dust mites, their feces, bacteria, fleas, soil & whatever else you have actually gets removed instead of being left behind.  Since Dry Foam cleaning does not extract that much so much of all of this is left behind on top of a chemical residue load. Would you really have your babies lay on the carpet a few days after having this type of service?

I have & use all methods & systems, I have no bias except for what I know what works best, unfortunatly Truckmount Steam Cleaning is superiour  for ResidentalCarpet Cleaning service. If the easier methods worked well such as Dry Foam then I would much rather use that & save on expensive truckmount steam equipment costs. It would be so nice not to have to run out hundreds of feet of hose and all the other equipment that is required but the fact is the dirt has to get removed and so do the chemical & soap residues. Because of this fact Truckmount Steam Cleaning is the only method that can truly clean your carpets.

In the past to be able to protect your carpets from stains & pre-mature wear (scratch) a carcinogenic & hazardous chemical had to be applied – Teflon – Scotchguard.

Those days are now over because today there is a safer way to protect your carpet investment: GREEN Carpet Protector.

<a href=”http://www.miracleserv.com/index.php” target=”_blank” rel=”nofollow”> Miracle Services, Inc.</a> Carpet & Floor Care now provides a safer alternative to Teflon & Scotchguard.

Our Miracle Protector is not only Safe for all living inhabitants but also for the planet. It is certified by the Synapse Handbook of Green Chemical Raw Ingredients, 2nd edition.

Cleaning Carpet is less expensive than replacing it. Today is not the time to invest in new carpet replacement costs. We that live in San Diego have to deal with a large amount of sand that damages carpet fibers by scratching them. Truckmount Carpet Steam Cleaning removes the particulate soils – sand & grit that you can not by normal vacuuming. Our powerful high pressure vacuum system will remove the deepest & most stubborn particulate soils.

Once your carpets have been deep cleaned it is time to apply that carpet protector to protect your carpet fibers from possible stains, provide you time to wipe up spills before they absorb into carpet fibers, fill in the scratched fibers, help keep your carpets cleaner longer & ensure periodic carpet cleaning are successful  without staining or excessive wear.

Normally we like to reapply the carpet protector at the 3rd cleaning but depending on your location in the county & the carpet fiber type we may recommend that you have it reapplied. It is really best to have it applied to the traffic lanes after every cleaning service.

There are soon to be restrictions on water use, mandatory conservation & possible fines for those who exceed their allotted use. This will greatly effect Deep , Zero Residue, Carpet Carpet Cleaning in San Diego!

We are a Multi Method Carpet Cleaning company that uses all forms, methods & systems of carpet cleaning. The most labor intensive method but the most thorough method that actually removes soils & restores carpets is Truck-Mounted Steam Cleaning. This is the method that nearly all carpet manufacturers recommend for a very good reason – to protect the product that they back up with their warranty! It also provides you with the cleanest carpet cleaning available. This method uses a large volume of water to Flush & Rinse your dirty carpets of soils, bacteria, dust mites, pollens & residues.

There are a few other methods but so many systems. Each has a certain level of cleaning & this is why we use Truck-Mount steam cleaning as our primary service. We prefer to take the harder route & Deep Clean all carpets via the Truck-Mount System for ethical reasons & to provide our clients with truly clean carpets free of chemical, soap & soil residues!

Now, since we have or will have water use restrictions, how will we work this out? Well, we do have Low Flow tools on our truck to provide Truckmount steam cleaning with half the amount of water that we would normally use compared to our High Flow tools. We can cut the water usage in half! This means sacrifice of that total Flush & Rinse of carpeting. This will mean that carpets will have to be cleaned on a very regular basis. This will effect those real dirty situations! Because of this we will deploy our Low Moisture system to clean the carpet in a Dry Cleaning style to break down & dissolve soils, absorb them in our special cotton towel system, then conduct a Low Moisture Steam Clean to flush & rinse out the soils & detergents with much less water as we would normally.

For those situations & depending on the water restrictions that require extreme water conservation we will have to use our Low Moisture Extraction method. This process is still Green & Natural, uses 10 times less water than steam cleaning & Dries in less than an hour, normally bone dry by the time I leave. I have used this system for years but it is still a fact that it is inferior to Truck-Mount Steam cleaning.

The Quality Carpet Cleaners Network here in San Diego has made drastic changes to provide San Diego with superb Low Moisture Extraction carpet cleaning! Our emphasis in on Zero Residue Deep Cleaning. We know that Dry Cleaning regardless of how you spin it will leave a chemical residue in your carpet if it is not removed by an extraction process.
