Hot Water Extraction
uses a detergent solution mixed with hot water that is
forced into the carpet using a powerful
pump. The flow of
water “flushes” the
dirt out from the carpet fibers. The
dirty solution is sucked out of the carpet using high
powered
vacuum motors.
Benefits:
1. A
thorough deep cleaning of carpets.
2. The best method for removing
oily substances such as food, tar and grime.
3. Can be used for biohazard
fire and flood restoration.

Bonneting
is a
method that uses round pads made of synthetic, cotton or a
combination of both materials. Bonnets go under standard floor buffers. The carpet cleaning
chemical is applied to the surface using a sprayer and the
bonnets use friction to pull loosened dirt from the top of
carpet fibers.
Benefits:
1. A
very good interim cleaning method.
2. This method utilizes low
moisture to clean the carpet fibers therefore drying time is
minimal and less chemical can lead to .
3.
Bonneting
can also be used in conjunction with hot water extraction to
speed up drying times and to prevent a stain from (wicking)
reoccurring.

The
Encapsulation method uses both chemistry and proper machine
agitation to surround soil particles (in the
carpet).
The encapsulated soil then
crystallizes
 so it can’t attract other soil. The encapsulated particles release from the carpet fiber and are
easily extracted with normal vacuuming.
Benefits:
1. An
excellent system when cleaning carpets frequently.
2. This
method utilizes low moisture to clean the carpet fibers
therefore drying time is minimal.
3. Rapid
re-soiling of carpets is minimal because there is less water
and chemical injected into the carpet. Therefore there is
less dirt attracting residue attaching to the carpet fibers.
4. Provides
greater agitation than bonneting to break up
ground in dirt in high traffic areas.
