A hand held steam cleaner is one of the best investments a homeowner can make. While a regular steam cleaner is a wise choice for anyone who wants the convenience of having a home cleaner that can maintain their carpeting, a hand held steam cleaner is both convenient and effective on both fabric and carpeting.
Instead of dragging out a full-sized steam cleaner, it is much easier to use a hand held steam cleaner for small jobs. Hand held steam cleaners use a solvent that produces a cleansing steam. The solvent penetrates the fabric or carpeting and the steam loosens the stain. The device then lifts the stain away from the material and into the cleaner. Within minutes, the stain is gone. Many vacuum cleaner companies make hand held steam cleaners as well as full sized steam cleaners. There are a variety of hand held steam cleaners on the market today. Using a hand held steam cleaner is very easy. Some hand held steam cleaners do not require chemicals but still effectively remove stains. Getting stains out without harmful chemicals is one reason many people choose these types of steam cleaners. Bissell makes an excellent hand-held steam cleaner that can be used without chemicals. For tough stains, chemicals may be added. Bissell hand held steam cleaners can get out any stain on carpet or furniture, including blood and wine, two of the most difficult stains to remove.
A hand held steam cleaner makes an excellent gift for just about everyone. The device can remove stains from your sofa, carpeting and even auto upholstery with limited effort. These steam cleaners are so easy to use that even a child could manage to use them to remove stains. Of course, children are better at producing stains than removing them, but with a hand held steam cleaner in the house, you can remove the stain just as easily as your child can make the stain.

POWER WASHING EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS FOR CONCRETE CLEANING If you own a power washing company, then you know that cleaning concrete is a very good way to make money, and since it is a repetitive type service it surely makes sense to sell accounts with property management companies and large real estate holding companies. During a recession there are many people who are willing to work for peanuts who’ve been laid off and they do not mind working in the middle of the night cleaning concrete with some old steam cleaner they bought off Craig’s List. Still, if you have the right equipment you can indeed lower the cost and the frequency of service and still make money. First, I recommend a good solid hot water pressure washer with 7-8 gallons per minute that can run a hydro-twister type cleaning machine full-tilt and with hot water, as this will cut your cleaning time down to half the time. Also you need it on a trailer with hose reels for the pressure washer and one to be constantly filling a water storage tank. How to Use a Tile and Grout Cleaning Machine There are basically two different types of machines you can choose from to clean your tile & grout. You can use a steam cleaner, or a pressure washer. A steam cleaner does more than just clean your grout; it also kills germs, mites, and bacteria. You should be using a steam cleaner that rates at 6 bars or better. A steam cleaner pressurizes the steam making it 180o C which is much hotter than waters normal boiling point of 100o C. When steam has reached that point (of 180o C) it is called vaporized steam. A steam cleaner is a very effective tool to clean grout with. Be sure though, that once the grout has been steam cleaned to apply grout sealer to keep the grout clean & maintained for much longer. The other steam cleaner machine you can use for grout cleaning is a pressure washer. The greatest drawback to using a pressure washer over a steam cleaner is that a pressure washer uses a lot more water, so the clean up (after the cleaning) can take a while longer. A pressure washer works great outside, and in baths & showers. The advantage to using a pressure washer is that it is much faster to use than a steam cleaner for large areas, and it is easier to use vertically (like bath & shower walls). As with a steam cleaner, you can rent a pressure washer, or hire a professional to do the grout cleaning for you. Talk to a salesperson to be sure you get the right pressure washer for your job.
