Frequently Asked
Questions:
Q. What is the difference between regular carpeting cleaning
chemicals and eco carpet cleaning solutions?
A. Traditional
commercial carpet-cleaning solutions contain a cocktail of noxious
synthetic chemicals. Eco carpet cleaning solutions are plant based
instead of chemical based.
Q. What are
allergens?
A. Mite excrement (house dust) pollen, animal hair and mould
spores are all allergens that can cause
respiratory
illnesses.
Q. Do the products
you use actually get rid of the allergens?
A. All allergens are caused by proteins. Our solutions break
these protein structures down, so that, when inhaled, these are no
longer regarded as enemies by the human immune system, and thus no
allergic reaction is provoked. The active substances are harmless for
humans and do not show any allergic potential of their own. In order to
avoid air allergen reactions, these solutions can also be used as
preventive measure.
Q. Environmentally
friendly and safe alternatives are always more expensive than normal
services, is this one too?
A. No, while the products that our cleaners use are more
expensive than standard chemicals, this is NOT reflected in what you
pay.
Q. Will the service be as effective as one using detergents
and solvents?
A. Absolutely, your carpets will be left exceptionally clean and
safe for all those who come into contact with them.
Q. What type of method do you use to clean carpets?
A. We use 'water extraction'. Whereby our machines apply water
spray directly onto your carpet, upholstery or mattress and extract the
solution simultaneously.
Q. Will ‘wet cleaning’ my carpets damage them?
A. That may have been true once or with older machines but
with our specially built systems, water extraction is by far the best
method of getting a deep cleaning, and most of today’s carpets were
designed to be wet cleaned. If we are in any way concerned that your
carpet is manufactured as such that wet cleaning may damage it, we will
explain this to you and a decision to carry on will be entirely yours.
Q. Do you "chem-dry" or dry clean the carpets? I don't
like my carpets to be wet.
A. We don't use any chemicals
on carpeting or upholstery. We use all natural products to clean,
that includes water. Our customers usually don't mind the small
inconvenience of a slightly damp surface as long as they were
contributing to their health and the environment.
Q. Do you use a truck mounted machine or
do you use a portable extractor? Truck mounted machines save time
don't they?
A. Yes, portable machines take more time to
clean but does not waste energy like van mounted machines. These van
mounted machines use massive amounts of fuel to heat and deliver the
cleaning solution to the job in hand. They are over engineered for
carpet and upholstery cleaning, and the only benefit is to the
user in faster setup times, but not to you, the customer.
We are an eco friendly company. When hybrid or more fuel efficient
trucks become available we will consider using them.
