How to Choose Steam Cleaners for Maintaining a Healthy Environment


Steam Cleaner
Steam cleaners are some of the most eco-friendly cleaning machines around. The primary reason for this is that the high temperature output of these machines can not only dissolve dirt and stains on the surface but when equipped with the right technology, can also kill off harmful microorganisms present on the surface without the help from any toxic detergents. The output temperature of top steam cleaning equipment ranges up to 386°F.

Still, some steam cleaners are more eco-friendly than others. Many features distinguish such machines from ordinary steam cleaning equipment. For starters, such machines have special technologies to eliminate bacteria and fungi. In addition, these machines have attached vacuums equipped with HEPA filters.

Anti Microbial Technology
Daimer®, a top class supplier of cleaning products, offers steam cleaners with ATIS® technology. External laboratories that have tested this technology confirm the company's claim that their steamers can kill off more than 99 percent of commonly occurring, disease-causing microorganisms. That means machines equipped with this cleaner can even eliminate those bacteria and fungi that develop resistance towards high temperature.

Steam cleaning machines are handy for use in hospitals, nursing homes, hotels, and restaurants.

HEPA Filters
HEPA filters can extract very small dust and dirt particles that normal filters leave alone. Such filters have a special extracting mechanism designed to extract particles as small as 0.3 microns. Steam cleaners with HEPA filters are useful in health care and hospitality industries.

Another beneficial, eco-friendly feature is the ability to clean effectively using steam alone. Harmful, toxic detergents are simply not necessary, as the power of steam is highly capable of handling most challenging applications. For added power and speed, consider pairing the steam cleaning machine with an Eco-Green® green cleaning formula, a safe way to increase cleaning power.
