There are many types of carpet cleaning products. You might be surprised if you thought carpet cleaning was just about washing your carpets. Carpet must be cleaned of dirt that has been embedded deep in the carpet fibers. This is combined with the need to clean carpet gently so that it doesn’t get damaged.

Hot water extraction is one example of a carpet-cleaning solution. While this method is not recommended for wool carpets, it may work well for other types. Sometimes called steam cleaning, hot water extraction uses heat to suspend dirt particles embedded in carpet. To remove the particles, a pressure cleaner is then injected into each pile. Fans or heating may be used to quickly dry the carpet.
