Carpet extractor injector, the essential tool for professionals
Cleaning carpets can be done in many ways. The cleaning action in the sense of the Sinner circle is always based on 4 characteristics which are:
- Mechanical action (brushing in the case of carpet or textile)
- The chemical action (of the detergent)
- Action time
- Temperature
Methods for cleaning carpets and textiles
Professionals quite widely use
single-brush cleaning with a
carpet shampoo brush while working "wet" .
Some people, who do not want to block areas from traffic, use the
single-brush method but called
“dry shampoo”. In this specific case we then work with "dry foam" to avoid overly humidifying the surface and thus to reopen it very quickly to traffic.
This method is essentially mastered by
Taski through its
foam compressor which remains the most efficient on the market.
In this specific case, mechanical action makes it possible to obtain a satisfactory result.
Another method of cleaning
dry carpets is the brush vacuum , the application of which consists of spreading a powder on the floor then using the brush cleaner which will simultaneously vacuum up the dirt powder mixture.
This method does not allow very deep cleaning or on very dirty floors but allows immediate recirculation of the area. It is therefore very suitable for the tertiary sector or the hotel industry, for example.
However, even using these two methods, professionals complete this “mechanical” cleaning by using a carpet extractor injector .
Why an injector extractor?
In fact, an extractor injector will not induce any mechanical action per se like a single-brush would.
There will therefore be an injection of a mixture of water and specific detergent product via a spray nozzle , the control of which is generally at the level of the operator's hand.
At the same time, the nozzle will powerfully suck up the solution injected into the fibers and there will be a deep washing effect on the textile (seat, carpet, textile, etc.).
The sucked liquid will then be collected in a bottom of dirty water and the color of the water will definitely convince you of the usefulness of this device.
Be careful, however, to use a
specific detergent for extractor injector which has the characteristic of not generating foam unlike a carpet shampoo product.
Types of textile carpet, drying
Generally speaking, if you have never used a carpet extractor injector on your support, it is
preferable to do a test on a small area (in a corner or an inconspicuous space). Indeed, although this is very rare, there may be incompatibilities on certain supports (color fastness, unsupported fibers, unsupported glue or method of fixing the carpet, etc.).
Drying time will of course be improved if the room has good ventilation and an adequate temperature.
You can also speed up drying using a
carpet blower which will allow you to quickly return the area to traffic.
