We use a low volume moisture cleaning method and utilize an encapsulation process to better clean your carpet. The process does not allow any moisture to reach the back of your carpet as well as the pad. This type of cleaning will extend the life of your carpet and there are no worries of mold growing in your pad. By using the encapsulation process, any dirt or soil left in the carpet will dry to a crystal and with routine vacuuming, it will be removed. This is also used to clean area rugs and oriental rugs. The low volume moisture method allows your carpets to be dry in 1-2 hours, not 1-2 days like you may have experienced with steam cleaners. A lot of other cleaners say they have fast drying times but that is only half the truth; the carpet may feel dry to the touch but the pad, backing, and sub floor may still be wet.
