Unlike most typical carpet cleaning solutions — which usually utilize a steam cleaning method — the Chem-Dry carpet cleaning process is one that is not only more effective, but also uses up to 80% less water than typical carpet cleaners.

Why? It is a combination of the process and the cleaners that we use. Where typical steam carpet cleaning saturates carpets with soapy water, the Chem-Dry process uses millions of microscopic bubbles combined with powerful Hot Carbonating Extraction and a natural cleaning solution, The Natural® — which means we use less water and no harsh soaps or chemicals causing less stress on the carpet. The carbonation loosens and lifts the dirt, and our high-powered equipment then removes it. As an added benefit, this method also typically takes a lot less time to dry.

Another huge advantage of our low moisture process is the way that it protects your carpet in the long run. Through a faster dry time and less water collected at the base of the carpet, it reduces the risk of mold and mildew; this not only protects your carpet, but lessens the overall exposure of those allergens to your family.

When compared with steam cleaners, Chem-Dry carpet cleaning services provide a solution that is not only more environmentally friendly, but which is more efficient, more convenient, and ultimately more effective.
