Whether you own a carpet cleaner or have had professionals steam clean your home before, you probably already know all about the versatility and benefits it offers. Here at The Steam Team, we’ve put together our favorite things about carpet cleaning, its versatility, and how it can improve your home (and your lives). Remember; a carpet cleaner is not just for carpet!

Steam Cleaning Ceramic Floors

As a matter of fact, if you are only using your carpet cleaner for your carpet then you’re not using this helpful machine to its full potential. Steam cleaners are actually one of the best things to use for cleaning a ceramic floor. The high pressure steam strips the floor of residue and chemicals left over by other household cleaning products. If you have any pets or children that spend a lot of time on the floor, it’s very important to keep these harmful chemicals off of your tile. To use a steam cleaner on ceramic floor, first do a thorough sweep of the floor to pick up all the larger pieces of dirt and debris. Then just add the water, place the microfiber cleaning cloth on the unit’s cleaner head, plug the machine in, and you’re ready to go!

Steam Cleaning Hardwood Floors

Using a carpet cleaner on a hardwood floor isn't quite as simple as it is with a ceramic floor. It depends very much on what kind of steam cleaner you get, as well as the condition of your floor. If you are going to steam clean your hardwood, make sure to only purchase a steam cleaner that is advertised to be used on hardwood or call in the professionals.
