► However, the importance of being number one is helping to ensure customers understand technologies and make informed decisions based upon facts prior to buying.
► Beware: Vapor steam cleaners are not real carpet cleaners or steam pressure washers, and are not designed for cleaning car exteriors.Unfortunately, vendors on the web are marketing electric steam cleaners as car washing machines that will simply not clean as expected.
► CONTACT US: Please do not hesitate to ask us a question using the Quick Contact Form if you have any questions, or are otherwise confused as to whether vapor steam is correct for your needs!
"Dry" Vapor Steam: One of the most important facts to know about vapor steam cleaners is the vapor is relatively dry, containing only about 5% water.
► Not For Everyone: Therefore, applications requiring more force, pressure, and flow rate (rated in psi (or pounds per square inch)) will call for technologies other than vapor steam cleaners.
► Most cleaning using a vapor machine is performed using a 1" brush that is moved along the surface, such as grout lines, and many other surfaces requiring simultaneous friction and heat.
► Steam Mop or Steam Vacuum: Using vapor steamers without vacuums include large floor brushes, which are used for steam mopping when attaching a towel to its clips. However, the floor brushes are too stiff to clean floors without the towels attached.
► Steam Vacuum Cleaners: A steam vacuum can successfully clean sealed tile without the need of a steam mop. Grout lines will still need to be cleaned using a separate steam vacuum grout tool available only with each and every Daimer® KleenJet® 500V, 1000CV, 3000CV, and 5000CV series machines.
► Vapor Steamers Will Not Work: Wet steam pressure washers are ideal for exterior car washing; commercial kitchen cleaning of walls and floors for fast cleaning action; fast chewing gum removal of up to 1200 pieces/hour, or about 10 times faster than vapor steam gum removal equipment; truck washing; and many other applications.
Not a Point and Shoot Technology: Some people are under the misconception that just aiming the steam at the surface without attaching a brush, towel, or other tool will clean the surface.
► Direct Contact Required: Vapor steam cleaners require direct contact with a tool or towel attached to a large triangular or rectangular brush in order to clean.
► WRONG! Steam cleaners are not pressure washers and do not have the cleaning power or flushing action to move dirt, grease, oil, and other substances, or clean stains by simply shooting dry steam at a surface like a pressure washer. The technology simply is not designed to work that way.
► Inaccessible Or Recessed Areas: The problem is machinery or other types of equipment with areas that are inaccessible for direct contact with a 1" brush will not be cleaned. The lack of flushing action makes it impossible to clean effectively within cracks or crevices by merely shooting the vapor. Conveyor metals, industrial equipment, and many other surfaces cannot be cleaned successfully..
- Technologies For Intended Purposes: Just as vacuum cleaners are designed for vacuuming, vapor steam cleaners have their uses. Prospective buyers must realize vapor steamers can be severely limiting for many uses, and alternative technologies are best suited for other applications.
- Vapor Steam Cleaners ....
ARE NOT substitutes for carpet cleaners/carpet steam cleaners. These other technologies are designed for large area carpet cleaning. Vapor steam cleaners do not offer the power or features to clean carpeting like professionals would clean, but rather are geared towards spots or areas. See Daimer's XTreme Power® carpet cleaners.
ARE NOT appropriate for unsealed hard wood, water-based paint, pressed paper, cardboard, silks, gentle fabrics, or any surface that can be damaged by exposure to heat.
ARE NOT appropriate for widespread cleaning of porous surfaces, such as: exterior car washing; concrete; stucco; brick; pavers; unsealed quarry; limestone; travertine; stone (unless these surfaces are completely sealed and honed); driveways; parking lots; garage floors; walkways; sidewalks, etc. These surfaces require a water flow in conjunction with the steam to help move the substances off the surfaces and from within the pores. See Daimer's Pressure Washer and Floor/Hard Surface Cleaner sections.
ARE NOT appropriate for large area commercial and industrial equipment cleaning in food service facilities, food plants, tool and die shops, industrial facilities, and many others ... large metal surface areas, conveyor belts, and most other surfaces must be cleaned quickly and effectively using powerful wet steam emitted through
Super Max ® steam pressure washers.
ARE NOT substitutes for pressure washers/steam pressure washers. Unless you require the simultaneous cleaning and extraction of our XTreme Power® hard surface cleaning machines, which can be used on interior or exterior hard surfaces, Super Max® steam pressure washers are the ideal THERMAL cleaning machines to clean large areas of porous and other surfaces using the highest temperatures in the industry up to 330°F. Uses include interior settings/surfaces (for most commercial, food service, industrial, and others within which water flow is permitted, but not of course within residential settings) and exteriors surfaces.
Steam pressure washers are exceptional for deep cleaning porous concrete, stucco, brick, pavers, quarry, limestone, marble, travertine, stone, driveways, parking lots, garage floors, walkways, sidewalks, other larger porous surfaces, large metal surface areas, conveyor belts, and countless other surfaces.
Note: Pet stains that have been on carpets for extended periods of time without proper removal may have permanently discolored the carpet fibers themselves. This may require the services of a professional carpet professional to color the spotted areas to match the carpet color, and restore the appearance to "like new" condition.
