CHEM-DRY VS. STEAM CLEANING
Learn what makes Chem-Dry carpet cleaning in Gastonia, NC more effective than steam cleaning!What Makes Us Different Than Steam Cleaners?
Have you ever smelled musty, moist carpets, stepped on wet carpets, or waited 1-2 days for your carpets to dry after a carpet cleaning? If this sounds like something you have experienced, then you may be questioning steam cleaning methods. Fortunately, the process that we use for carpet cleaning in Gastonia, Lenoir, Dallas, Morganton, and surrounding areas uses 80% less water than steam cleaners. This means your carpets only take a few hours to dry!
We use Chem-Dry’s unique Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) cleaning method for healthier and more effective carpet cleaning in Gastonia and Hickory. Our process uses millions of microscopic carbonated bubbles that bring dirt and grime buried in the fibers of your carpet to the surface. From there, they are extracted with our high-tech cleaning equipment.

Why Steam Cleaning is Less Effective than Carbonated Cleaning
Steam cleaners and other carpet cleaners in Gastonia, NC and surrounding areas have a less effective approach to cleaning carpets compared to our HCE cleaning process. Steam cleaning machines work by releasing buckets of hot, soapy water on to your carpet. Ideally, all that water and soap would get extracted by the machine. Unfortunately, this is not the case!
Besides leaving a large amount of water in your carpet, steam cleaning also leaves behind a dirt-attracting residue that makes your carpet get dirty faster. This means that you’ll have to call another company for carpet cleaning in Gastonia, NC to get the same stains out again!
