Steam cleaning in and of itself will clean most surfaces without any chemicals, but sometimes chemicals, which should only be green chemicals, are needed to as a pre-spray prior to applying steam in order to maximize cleaning power. We strongly urge those considering steam cleaners to avoid harmful chemicals that are proven disruptive to those with allergies, asthma, and other ailments, as well as children, pets, the elderly, and others.
Ponventional steam cleaners include a pressure cap leading to a boiler tank within which is a heating element. The tank is filled with plain water that is then heated to boiling. This creates pressurized steam, which is released through a nozzle or hose. Steam can be directed towards surfaces for cleaning, and the pressure of the steam in conjunction with the appropriate tools help loosen and clean dirt, grime, and more.
Continuous refill steam cleaner technology, offers the user the highest level of productivity to users, are included in only the better steam cleaners. These machine include no pressure cap, two chambers, a water chamber and separate boiler chamber. The water chamber automatically feeds the boiler with water whenever the boiler requires more water.
Continuous refill allows users to add water into the pressure-free water chamber and clean non-stop; they do not need to power down the steam cleaner (as is the case with conventional steam cleaners without continuous refill technology), de-pressurize, add more water, and wait for reheating. Those needing to clean large surface area, wanting more convenience, cleaning professionally, most businesses, and others really appreciate the benefits and productivity gains by using continuous refill technology.
