NORTH STAR CHEM-DRY VS. STEAM CLEANING
Learn what makes Chem-Dry carpet cleaning much more effective than steam cleanersCompare the Difference
If you’ve ever smelled musty, moist carpets or stepped on wet carpets, then the answer is obvious. You need the carpet cleaning experts of North Star Chem-Dry. Our unique, effective carpet cleaning method is designed to allow carpets to dry quickly.
We use a patented Carbonated Cleaner applied with a low-pressure spray machine, which releases millions of microscopic bubbles that penetrate deep into the carpet fibers. These tiny bubbles lift dirt and grime to the surface, where they can be easily extracted and cleaned away. This process allows us to use significantly less water than traditional steam cleaning methods.
With North Star Chem-Dry, your carpets will be dry in just 1-2 hours, compared to the 1-2 days required by many competitors. Experience the difference today!
The Healthier, Deeper, Carpet Cleaner in Apple Valley
Steam cleaners use a different method for cleaning carpets. They spray hot, soapy water onto your carpets, expecting the machine to suck it all back up. However, this doesn’t always work, and often, a significant amount of water and soap is left behind. This can attract dirt, causing your carpets to get dirty again more quickly.
While steam cleaning may initially make your carpets look clean, the leftover soap can lead to quicker soiling. Additionally, with all that extra water, you’ll have to wait much longer for your carpets to dry.
