The Steam Floor Cleaner
A steam floor cleaner is a great way to clean, disinfect and deodorize your floors without the use of harmful chemicals. They are available for residential and commercial use. A portable cleaner is prefect for the individual that is sensitive to chemicals. The focus today is on the environment and this type of cleaning unit is just what our planet needs in order to continue the push for chemical free cleaning products.
A steam floor cleaner is perfect for the homeowner that wants to remove chemicals and their residue from their home, a faster and more effective way to clean and to improve the overall quality of the air in the home. These units will also help get rid of dust mites.
A popular steam floor cleaner is made by Bissell. Although there are other companies that manufacture models that are just as good. The model made by Bissell is a handheld unit that is easy to use. Usually they are used on carpet and upholstery but some models are great for just about anywhere in your home. It is a safe and effective way to clean a house. An advantage of this model is that you do not need to get on your hands and knees to clean your floor. It takes less than half the team it would if you had to scrub with your hands.
Handheld steam floor cleaners are gaining in popularity across North America and Europe as homeowners are realizing that harsh chemicals are not required to keep their home clean and sanitized. Chemical cleaners are potentially harmful to our health and certainly for the environment. They are also more economical than the chemical cleaners we are use to using on a regular basis. They are also more convenient than the storage closet full of cleaners.
You would not use the same steam floor cleaner for your carpet as you would for your hardwood floors. A tip to clean a hardwood floor correctly is to first vacuum it with a good canister style and use the bare floor attachment. Then clean with a steam machine and not the type for carpets. One such product is the Sargent Steam cleaning home cleaning system. You will be impressed with how clean your floors are and there is no film left or smears.
Another new product is the antimicrobial steam floor cleaner. It cleans and sanitizes floors for up to one week due to the antibacterial solution in the steam. This particular cleaner has a separate compartment for the antibacterial solution and it merges with the water to form a continuous flow of steam, which is more effective than short bursts of steam.
