Once you use a Thermax, you'll throw that steamvac out... :P | ||

I think your neighbor needs NEW carpet in her house.If you are going to clean that floor-your Thermax needs the MOTORIZED brush tool to do the job.If it can get that peice of carpet clean-the Thermax is a competent machine. | ||

a XXX SteamMaster will REALLY get the dirtiest (even worse than shown here) carpets super clean!

Also as an addendum to that - when you have a carpet that is that filthy, you need to go over it with an orbital scrubber to agitate the fibers and loosen the dirt, like an Oreck. Commercial cleaning companies also pretreat the carpet beforehand with a pump sprayer and various solutions.
It's not about just having a commercial machine, you have to know the procedure as well. This young guy is a real pro and cares about the carpets and jobs he does, he has a good technique. | ||

for extra soiled rug, I spray the solution on the carpet, and use a soft brush on a oreck orbital machine or a crb. then extract with plain hot water... the extra dwell time and extra scubbing really works the solution in too break up the soil and it's easier on you.. | ||
