There are two methods to remove pet stains: using carpet cleaning equipment or using steam cleaners. The most common method is to use carpet cleaners, as these machines are made to specifically remove stains from carpets and upholstery. The following information is for using carpet cleaning equipment to remove pet stains.
Use Heated Machines
Carpet cleaners are available as heated machines and non-heated machines. For removing pet stains, it is better to use heated machines. Such machines from Daimer® can provide an output temperature up to 210°F. This relatively high temperature output can not only dissolve dirt residue but also remove the foul odor associated with pet stains. Another advantage of Daimer®’s carpet cleaning equipment is low flow technology. Many machines, including the XTreme Power® XPH-5800T, allow carpets to dry in as little as two hours.
How These Machines Work
Surfaces should first be pre-sprayed with a cleaning solution. Daimer® recommends using their Eco-Green® Carpet Care & Upholstery Cleaner as a safe alternative to toxic chemicals. After the carpet pre-soaks, carpet extractors function inject a mixture of water and cleaning solution into soft surfaces, like carpets, mats, and upholstery. This mixture filters onto the surface and breaks the bond between the surface and the stain. Then, the operator agitates the surface with a wand attached to the machine. The agitation leads to the creation of dirt residue, which is easily extracted by the machine.
