In cleaning, great care should be taken especially when disinfecting kennels and vet surfaces. Others still using chemical-based cleaners, which can be dangerous to users and dogs as well because of the residue it may leave behind after cleaning.

Steam Vacuum Cleaner Removes Pets Hair Effectively

For pet lovers, we should also consider that some of our family members have an allergy and cannot stand pets especially pets’ hairs. The bigger problem is that hairs of pets do penetrate deep into the carpets that soon become difficult to remove. And so as pet owners, we should take responsibility on how to maintain cleanliness and removing pets’ hairs thoroughly is part of it.

How to remove deeply embedded pets’ hair on carpets?

Regular vacuum cleaning can help but not all pets’ hair will be removed only those in the surface. Removing the deeply embedded pets hair on carpets are one of the great household tasks that steam vacuum cleaner can do.  

Using Tecnovap Jetvac Eco steam vacuum cleaner, mostly used in small commercial and domestic environments that require a shorter period of cleaning, is also ideal for all the environmentally conscious or chemically sensitive cleaners.

Here are the 3 carpet cleaning steps that can be done using Jetvac Eco:

Step 1: Vacuum
With the use of a vacuum tool attachment, start vacuuming the carpet in patterns to remove all the pets’ hair, dust and dirt on the carpet surface.

Step 2: Vapor steam clean
Using a triangular or rectangular brush with microfibre clipped on and starts vapor steam cleaning. With the superheated vapor that steam cleaners produce, it can loosen up the fibers on the carpet and bring the dirt up to the surface. Vapor steam cleaning will not only deep clean carpets but can also effectively remove dust mites not only carpets but also on other upholstery.

Step 3: Vacuum again
Vacuuming again will thoroughly remove all the pets’ hair, dirt and even dust mites out of the carpet.


This idea of carpet cleaning is to vacuum up excess dirt, then use heat to loosen up the fibers on the carpet and bring the dirt up to the surface. We need to release the pets’ hair with the hot steam using a steam cleaner then the suction power of the built-in vacuum to bring up dirt and pet hairs that were deeply embedded on carpets. After doing these steps, you will see an amazing result. Carpets will look new and fresh again.

Keeping carpets and other upholstery clean and free of pets’ hair is very healthy and because vapor steam cleaning does not use chemicals, it will be a great help to those who are sensitive on chemicals.

Steam Cleaning Tips for Delicate Surfaces



Steam cleaning makes our daily cleaning routine light, easy and fast.  And to make our cleaning effective, it is very important to know what is appropriate and not when steam cleaning.

Here are some of the tips on steam cleaning delicate surfaces.

Painted or coated surfaces cleaning

It is sometimes a misconception that steam cleaners should not be used on painted or coated surfaces because of the high heat that can damage the paint. We can actually steam clean painted or coated surfaces.

When steam cleaning, keep the steam at the right distance. It can easily remove stains without damaging the surface. Or use a cleaning cloth along its steaming tool with nylon brush. Always remember not to stay for too long the steam on one spot because paint could be lifted or marks could appear. Scratching of surface can be avoided with the use of cleaning cloth attached to the steaming tool. The cleaning cloth will collect the dirt and grime removed from the surface.

Use extreme care when steam cleaning painted or coated surfaces. When steam cleaner is used properly, it will do a quick and easy way to clean most coated or painted surfaces.

Cleaning glass surfaces

Steam cleaner cleans and degrease glass surfaces efficiently.  Using the window cleaner or tool fit to the steam wand (use extension tubes when necessary), work the steam jet on and start cleaning the glass surface from top to bottom movement to avoid streaks. Use the squeegee to dry or clear the water from the glass. Squeegee wand is essential in cleaning glass for it will make the cleaning easy.

Alternately, use a cleaning cloth and the hand or floor tool to remove greasy and difficult to clean glass surface. With steam on, wipe over surface and remove any excess moisture using an additional cloth or glass squeegee.

During winter months, just apply a small amount of steam over the entire glass surface to avoid breakage.

Cleaning cloth or textiles

Before you use the steam cleaner on cloths, you should always test if the material is resistant to steam by applying it to a part of the material.  If it is, use the steam iron attachment or vertical ironing brush to clean hang clothes.

Steam cleaning gets rid of both toxic fluids and wrinkles from dry cleaning. Steam is the safest and most efficient method in removing wrinkles. It is actually 5x faster than ironing. When steaming, lightly touch the cloth with the steam head and wrinkles will vanish quickly.

 
Just like any other machines when not properly used can definitely ruined or damaged surfaces that you are cleaning, but with proper use and extra care, steam cleaner can be a great tool too on delicate surfaces. Saves time and money; works effectively and efficiently without using chemicals.
