Q1: How many carpet cleaning methods are available in the market? which one is better?
Bonnet (Absorbent Pad)  Method

 The rotary bonnet method uses an absorbent spin pad attached to remove the soil. The spin pad absorbs soil onto the pad. To reduce pile distortion, keep the absorbent pad well lubricated with cleaning solution. Replace pad often to prevent transfer of soil back to the carpet face. Advantage is fast dry, disadvantages are carpet abrasion and low quality cleaning result

Dry Cleaning Method
An absorbent compound saturated with detergents and solvents is brushed in. The compound attaches to the soil particles, and both the soil and compound are then removed by vacuuming. The advantage is carpet is never wet, disadvantage is no thorough cleaning.

Dry Foam Extraction Method
A detergent solution is whipped into foam and applied to the carpet, then followed by wet vacuuming. Advantage is fast dry, disadvantage is poor cleaning result

Steam Deep Cleaning Method (adopted by us)
Traffic areas are preconditioned to suspend ground-in soil, then a pressurized very hot cleaning solution is injected into the pile. Suspended soil and solution are immediately extracted. Advantage is the best cleaning result, disadvantage is 2 to 4 hours drying time. Truck mounted machine is much powerful than the  commercial portable machine.

Q2: How to take red stain out of carpet?


Buy a bottle of "RED OUT" from your local carpet cleaning supply store (you can easily find a store from yellow book), then:

1. Apply product generously.

2. Agitate with scraper.

3. Place wet terry towel over stain.

4. Apply steam iron to towel moving in orbital pattern to even steam application.

5. Extract with hot water.

Q3: How to take wax out of carpet?

1 Take off the top wax with a blunt knife.

2. Cover waxed carpet  with several layers of white towel paper.

3.Apply steam iron to paper moving in orbital pattern to even heat application.

3. Change paper and repeat the above process till the wax is  gone


Q4:How to maintain your carpet clean?

There is no doubt that carpet in your home is often above $1000. Maintaining carpet clean not only saves your money, but also makes you feel happy and healthy.

1. Vacuum once a week. 80 to 90% of soil by weight on carpet can be vacuumed by regular vacuum machine. Carpet vacuuming can take abrasive sand out and extend carpet life greatly. But too frequent vacuuming will quickly wear your carpet out. A customer vacuumed her carpet every day, her 3 year old carpet is almost bald.  Once a week is appropriate for most homes.

2. Put a runner in front of carpet. A runner can take more than 60% of shoe soil.

3. Do not wear outside shoes inside.

4. Testing your slippers if you wear it inside. Some of the sole of slippers leave black mark on carpet. You can test if it is by scratching the sole on cement floor.

5. Wearing socks is the best for carpet. Baring feet are not as good as wearing socks because the feet will leave body grease on carpet. Socks can clean the carpet.

6. Drying any liquid stain with cotton towel as soon as possible.

7. Testing in small area first before pouring liquid detergent over stain. Liquid detergent may expand your stain.

8. Stretching carpet if it is loose. Loose carpet will deteriorate very quickly.

9. Less food or no food over carpet.

10. Repair broken carpet as soon as possible.

11. Replace old pad if you want to replace the carpet over it. New pad will extend the life of your new carpet

12. Take the rubber bottom mat off your carpet as soon as you finish your showering. The rubber bottom does prevent water from penetrating into the carpet, but also block the humidity vaporizing from the ground to the air. Long time use of this kind of mat will leave mold stain on carpet.

13. Take action when the carpet is flooded. The flooded area is normally twice as big as you imagined. More than 70% of the water is in the padding, only less than 30% of the water is in the carpet. Regular sucking from the top of carpet can only take out less than 30% of all the water. A professional cleaner should be called when carpet is flooded. 

14 Clean the surrounding hard floor every day will greatly reduce the soil brought to carpet.

15. Steam clean carpet once or twice a year
