Dry carpet cleaning is becoming more and more popular. Historically it’s been used by businesses who need fast drying times for their carpets. Some businesses can’t afford 6 to 8 hours downtime for normal deep steam cleaning with staff working around the clock. As time goes by, it’s become more and more popular in residential settings also.

This type of cleaning is a little different to wet cleaning. A special powder is sprinkled on the carpet beforehand and left to settle for a period of time before being cleaned off. This power is generally bio-degradable and totally safe. It acts like a sponge sucking up everything that makes your carpet dirty.

To actually clean the carpets a unique type of carpet cleaner is used. A machine with powerful motorized brush heads pushes the power further into the carpet. Allowing the power to suck up even more dirt and grime. Then a powerful vacuum is used to suck up all the power that has bound all the dirt to it.

The powder that is placed on the carpet is safe for people and animals to come into contact with. Common sense needs to prevail. The powder shouldn’t be consumed but if there is a leftover amount of powder stuck deep in the carpet fibers it won’t cause any issues if touched. It’s also bio-degradable. So over time it will naturally disappear.

Since the 1980s you have been able to hire professionals who will use dry cleaning methods. But deep steam cleaning is much more popular. And this will be the case for a long time to come. New technologies always take a lot longer to take over.

To add to this somethings never change. The very concept of cleaning something without water is not the norm and might be too out there for most people to accept and part with their money to buy as a service.
