But, cleaning a carpet comes with its own difficulties. One of the most common cleaning method conundrums for homeowners is choosing dry carpet cleaning or steam cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, in this article, the Fantastic Services team will explain the pros and cons of both methods, so you can find out which one is for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article is for all of you who:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Own a carpet;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Need to clean your carpet;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Are looking for the right carpet cleaning method.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"What_is_steam_cleaning\">What is steam cleaning?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Steam cleaning or hot water extraction is a cleaning method recognised worldwide as the most effective carpet cleaning solution. It uses specialized equipment that treats the carpet with pressurised hot water and detergent, made to remove stains and refresh the carpet fibres until they look as good as new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The procedure goes like this: the carpet cleaner will first vacuum the carpet from any dust or debris. Then, they will examine the type of stains the carpet has suffered over the years and from that they will deduce the type of detergent to use on the carpet. Then, they will use a professional machine to deep clean the entire carpet. A powerful suction attachment will suck out excess moisture, resulting in the carpet being washed and dried at the same time. This drastically reduces <a href=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/how-long-does-carpet-take-to-dry\/\">the carpet&#8217;s drying time<\/a> once the procedure is done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of steam cleaning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bullet-list bullet-list--plus\">\n\t\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"icon-plus\"><\/span>Highly effective in stain removal;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-plus\"><\/span>Extremely good at refreshing the carpet;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-plus\"><\/span>The carpet dries in 3 to 6 hours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div> <!-- \/.bullet-list --><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of steam cleaning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bullet-list bullet-list--minus\">\n\t\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"icon-minus\"><\/span>Uses chemical detergents;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-minus\"><\/span>Is not recommended for natural fibre carpets;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-minus\"><\/span>The steam cleaner produces noise of up to 80 decibels.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div> <!-- \/.bullet-list --><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"apester-media\" data-media-id=\"5b59bf7f77f0ec71dc57ccfe\" height=\"468\"><\/div>\n<p><script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/static.apester.com\/js\/sdk\/latest\/apester-sdk.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"What_is_dry_cleaning\">What is dry carpet cleaning?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dry carpet cleaning, or chemical carpet cleaning, is a method that uses the so-called \u201cdry shampoo\u201d to extract dirt and grime from a rug. Note that although it\u2019s called \u201cdry cleaning\u201d, there is actually some minimal moisture used to activate the shampoo. Dry cleaning comes where steam cleaning falls short &#8211; namely, in cleaning without damaging natural fibre carpets, such as jute, wool, cotton, sisal, sea grass, and many others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The procedure goes like this: the carpet cleaner would apply a low-moisture powder on the carpet. Then, they will rub it into the fibres with a rotating brush. This loosens the dirt, dust, and grime, making them stick to the powder. In the end, a power vacuum would suck out all the dry shampoo, along with the unsanitary particles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pros of dry carpet cleaning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bullet-list bullet-list--plus\">\n\t\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"icon-plus\"><\/span>Much less drying time than steam cleaning;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-plus\"><\/span>Cleans without damaging natural fibre carpets;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-plus\"><\/span>Rejuvenates delicate carpets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div> <!-- \/.bullet-list --><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cons of dry carpet cleaning<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"bullet-list bullet-list--minus\">\n\t\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><span class=\"icon-minus\"><\/span>It can get way more expensive;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-minus\"><\/span>It doesn\u2019t remove stains;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span class=\"icon-minus\"><\/span>Sometimes detergent residue is left on the carpet.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div> <!-- \/.bullet-list --><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n<section class=\"section section--single-post\">\n\t<div class=\"check-price-box\">\n\t\t<div class=\"check-price-box__body\">\n\t\t\t<h3 class=\"check-price-box__title\">Book your professional carpet cleaning appointment!<\/h3>\n\n\t\t\t<p class=\"check-price-box__desc\">Hire reliable carpet cleaners today!<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"form form--full-width form--check-price dynamic-helper\">\n    <form class=\"default-check-price-form\" action=\"\">\n        <div class=\"form__inner\">\n            <div class=\"form__field the-postfield-wrap\">\n                <span class=\"icon-holder\">\n                    <i class=\"icon-pointer\"><\/i>\n                <\/span>\n\n                <input class=\"field the-postfield\" type=\"text\" name=\"postcode-field\" placeholder=\"Enter your post code\" data-service-type=\"759\"\/>\n                <span class=\"focus-label\"><\/span>\n                <div class=\"field-error-msg\">Add a valid postcode e.g. 3000<\/div> <!-- \/.field-error-msg -->\n            <\/div> <!-- \/.form__field -->\n\n            <div class=\"form__btn submit-wrapper-with-loader active\">\n                <div class=\"load-holder-lds-eclipse\">\n                    <div class=\"load-lds-eclipse\"><\/div>\n                <\/div>\n\n                <input class=\"btn btn--large checkpPricesSubmit\" name=\"check-prices-submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Get a quote\" rel=\"nofollow\" disabled\/>\n            <\/div> <!-- \/.form__btn -->\n        <\/div> <!-- \/.form__inner -->\n    <\/form>\n<\/div> <!-- \/.check-price-form -->\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.card-widget__body -->\n\n\t\t<div class=\"check-price-box__img\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"lazyloadImage\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/fantasticservicesgroup.com.au\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/fantasticservices-com-blog\/assets\/images\/check-price-box\/cleaner.png\" alt=\"Book your professional carpet cleaning appointment!\"\/><\/noscript><\/div>\t\t<\/div> <!-- \/.card-widget__img -->\n\t<\/div> <!-- \/.card-widget card-widget--obf-form -->\n<\/section> <!-- \/.section section--single-post -->\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Dry_carpet_cleaning_VS_steam_cleaning_FAQ<\">Dry carpet cleaning VS. steam cleaning: FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1576503296722\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">When should I get steam cleaning?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If your carpet is synthetic or mixed fibres, it\u2019s better to get steam cleaning, as it will provide a deep clean and stain removal.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1576503311242\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">When should I get dry cleaning?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">If your carpet is made of natural fibres, such as cotton, jute, wool or other, you need dry cleaning to rejuvenate its look.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1576503349732\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Which of the two is more expensive?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">That would be the dry cleaning method since the \u201cdry shampoo\u201d is a very expensive product.
