DEEP
EXTRACTION CLEANING
Deep
extraction cleaning provides the most thorough cleaning of any carpet
maintenance system. It does this while reducing detergent residue, a
prime consideration when choosing a cleaning system.
Extraction
pumps force a solution of water and cleaning detergent into the carpet
pile and recover the water and soil mixture with a powerful vacuum.
This can be performed with self-contained or truck-mounted units.
There are two popular methods of extraction:
1. Extraction Clean (pretreat traffic lanes
only and extract entire carpet with detergent).
2. Extraction Rinse (prespray entire carpet
surface and rinse without detergent in extractor).
METHOD
1: EXTRACTION CLEAN
Step
1: Vacuum
Vacuum and remove all spots from the carpet.
Step 2: Prespray
Prespray traffic lanes and spots with Carpet Prespray
(#321) at the recommended label dilution. Allow about five minutes
dwell time before extracting. Heavily soiled traffic lanes can be agitated
with a carpet rake prior to extraction.
Step 3:
Mix the Extraction Cleaner (#2220) -or- En-Case™ (#329) in the
tank according to label instructions.
Step 4:
Extract the carpet.
Step 5:
Replace furniture on carpet tabs to prevent legs from causing discoloration
or rust spots on carpet.
METHOD 2: EXTRACTION RINSE
Step
1: Vacuum
Vacuum and remove all spots from the carpet.
Step 2: Prespray
Prespray traffic lanes and spots with Carpet Prespray (#321) at the
recommended label dilution. Allow about five minutes dwell time before
extracting. Heavily soiled traffic lanes can be agitated with a carpet
rake prior to extraction.
Step 3:
Mix the Extraction Rinse (#2222) in the tank
according to label instructions.
Step 4:
Extract the carpet.
Step 5:
Replace furniture on carpet tabs to prevent legs from causing discoloration
or rust spots on carpet.
ROTARY SHAMPOO CLEANING
Rotary
shampooing is a restorative method for extremely soiled carpet.
It works best if used in conjunction with extraction equipment. If rotary
cleaning is not followed with extraction, you should extract a minimum
of every third time that you shampoo.
Step
1: Vacuum
Vacuum
and remove all spots from the carpet.
Step 2: Prespray
Prespray traffic lanes and spots with Carpet Prespray
(#321) at the recommended label dilution. Allow about five minutes
dwell time before extracting. Heavily soiled traffic lanes can be agitated
with a carpet rake prior to extraction.
Step 3: Prepare Machine
Prepare the shampoo machine by mixing Dry
Foam Rug Shampoo (#314) in the tank and attaching a broken-in shampoo
brush (Follow the manufacturer’s directions to break in a new
brush).
Step 4: Shampoo Carpet
Beginning at the far end of your work area, shampoo the carpet by
moving toward the exit using a side-to-side motion. If necessary, re-shampoo
the work area in the opposite direction of the first pass.
Step 5: Wipe Splashes
Be sure to wipe up any resulting splashes on baseboards and furniture.
Step 6: Vacuum / Extract
Vacuum carpet, or for optimum results, extract carpet using Extraction
Rinse (#2222) diluted to label directions.
Step 7: Carpet Tabs
Replace furniture on carpet tabs to prevent legs from causing discoloration
or rust spots on carpet.
