Las Vegas Company Offers Affordable Carpet Cleaning Services

August 29, 2019 – – Affordable Carpet Cleaning (ACC), a company based in Las Vegas, Nevada, has recently reached out to the community to explain the most commonly used methods of cleaning carpets, along with the most effective and affordable options.

The first cleaning method described by the company is Hot Water Extraction Cleaning, commonly known as steam cleaning. This cleaning method utilizes highly pressurized hot water to agitate the carpet fiber and dissolve dirt in the carpet. This typically involves the application of a cleaning agent on the soiled surface, followed by the scrubbing of the carpet with a brush, and then a rinse of the affected area. ACC explains, “Once the cleaning agent has settled, the carpet will be ‘washed’ by the cleaning equipment, removing any remnant of dirt along with the cleaning agent itself. Once this is done, all that is left is to let the carpet dry in either room or air-conditioned temperature.”

This method is also one of the fastest, as an average-sized carpeted office of 3000 sq. ft. would normally take around two hours to clean, and need at least four hours to dry. This makes it so that the most convenient time to clean the carpet is during the late afternoon, as once the cleaning is done, the carpet can be left to dry overnight and the office’s daily operations can be resumed without additional hassle or delay the next morning

Another carpet cleaning method, which used to be among the most popular until encapsulation technology was introduced in the 1970s, is shampoo cleaning. Affordable Carpet Cleaning states, “While shampooing carpets may seem to clean heavily soiled carpet, this method’s disadvantage is that it leaves behind high amounts of wet foam residue in the carpet that takes a long time to dry. It can become sticky when it dries because no rinsing is done after shampooing and rapid re-soiling of the carpet makes this cleaning method less popular than others.”

This method was quickly overtaken by the foam encapsulation technique, which uses synthetic detergents as a base that crystallizes into powder form when dried. Loosened dirt particles in carpet fiber will be encapsulated into powder when the cleaning foam dries and finally vacuumed or brushed at the conclusion of a cleaning service. Among a host of other benefits, the company states that foam encapsulation uses less water during cleaning, which results in shorter drying time compared to the carpet shampooing.

Affordable Carpet Cleaning says, “The foam encapsulation cleaning has received a high degree of approval by those who advocate the use of environmentally friendly products because there is less chemical residue left behind after a cleaning, compared to carpet shampooing. However, despite the fact that encapsulation carpet cleaning has shown good cleaning results, this cleaning method has not been able to thoroughly clean heavily soiled carpet because of the technology’s limitations.”

The fourth most commonly used cleaning method is bonnet cleaning, also known as spin cleaning. This is a technique that produces good surface cleaning results, as it mainly involves cleaning the top part of the carpet fiber using a heavy-duty motorized machine with a spinning pad that has been immersed in a cleaning solution that is able to absorb the dirt from the carpet surface. The company believes that, “Bonneting is popular in hotels because it can quickly clean carpets in heavy-traffic public areas that require the carpet to be cleaned without much moisture. Carpets treated this way can also dry quickly, preventing inconvenience to hotel guests. However, as this does not clean the carpet deeply, dirt beneath the carpet will eventually emerge on the surface within a short period, causing the carpet to appear soiled again before long. Bonneting also leads to an accumulation of chemical residue below the surface as the cleaning process tends to push the applied chemical and remaining dirt farther into the carpet.

Those looking for a reliable company with a proven history of success in the carpet cleaning business may get in touch with Affordable Carpet Cleaning. The company states that they are able to identify and use the most effective cleaning techniques as required by each client’s individual situation.
