Hiring The Professional Carpet Cleaning Tacoma WA Custodial Firms Offer

By Karina Frost


The vast majority of all businesses and homes have carpets on the floor. They are beautiful and warm as well as soundproofing in many cases. They also have another, sinister, feature. That is the ability to collect germs, bacteria and allergens from outside and inside as well. The custodial firms who offer the carpet cleaning Tacoma WA home and business owners all need is the way to deal with this.

The unhealthy elements, such as germs and bacteria come into the home attached to clothing and riding on your pets hair or fur. They will also blow in through the windows and doors when they are open. They will dig deep into the fiber of the carpets and hang on until they are disturbed by feet scuffling along. This will make them airborne and allowed to be transported into other spaces.

Most everyone makes sure their carpets are vacuumed at least once per week and, in many occasions, much more than that. This vacuuming will remove top soil or dust from the pile, however, it will not deal with the vast majority of these contaminants that can cause people to get sick. The reason it will not deal with this material is based on the science of physics.

Commercially available vacuums can pull things into itself that are larger than about 10 microns. That does include dirt, dust, some pet dander and debris normally associated with a growing family. The unhealthy elements that needs to come out are smaller than seven microns. This material can not be seen by the human eye.

The two primary systems for cleaning carpets are the dry chemical and the water extraction methods. The first is for the higher priced, wool and woolen blends that do not accept water very well. It is an ultra low moisture powder that is broadcast onto the floor after a through vacuuming. It is worked into the fiber where it binds with the soils, kills the living organisms and allows the vacuum to pick it all up.

Dry chemical systems bond with the inert contaminants and make them larger so the vacuum can handle them easier. The water extraction system will simply flood the germs and allergens out of contact with the carpet fibers. This is accomplished with the use of a fairly large machine, run over the carpet using a three action system that leaves the flooring clean and smelling nice.

Floor machines, such as the extraction system, will force a cleansing solution deep into the fiber. This water and chemical combination will dislodge the material and allow the brushes, with either rotary or circular agitation, to assist in this. The powerful wet vacuum will then remove all of the solution, with the unhealthy elements in it, out of the carpet.

The reason these professionals are needed is because these are relatively complicated systems and must be monitored during operation. The commercial cleaning firms can handle any size area and will work, mostly, in the evening. This is to prevent others from walking on the carpet until it is dry and all furniture is put back.
