In the world of carpet cleaning, carpet extractors are one of the most commonly used type of carpet cleaning equipment. What is a carpet extractor? A carpet extractor is a type of carpet cleaning machine that works by spraying water onto the carpet then vacuuming or extracting the dirt along with the water. Some of the features associated with home, commercial, and industrial carpet extractors include portable heated and non-heated carpet extractors.

Deciding which carpet extractor to use depends on what type of carpet cleaning needs to be done. For example, the best carpet extractors for some situations would be the non-heated variety. One situation where this is the case is for cleaning up certain types of stains, such as blood or other types of colored liquid. If hot water is used, the stain may become set within the carpeting and be harder if not impossible to remove, (just like when doing laundry).

Another situation where it the best carpet extractor is a non-heated one is if one is cleaning wool carpeting. This is because if hot water is used on wool carpeting, it might result in shrinkage in some areas. We suggest using only non heated mode when cleaning natural fibers like wool, which may also shrink with heat. It is important to note that these advantages with non-heated carpet extractors applies with all types of carpet cleaning, whether carpet cleaning for home, commercial or industrial settings.
