This is the best of the best. This is a fancy way of saying that hot water cleaning solution under high pressure is forced into your carpet and then sucked out of your carpet. In a recent Technical Bulletin, Shaw Industries, the world’s largest carpet manufacturer, “recommends the hot water extraction system, which research indicates provides the best capability for cleaning”. Shaw’s Technical Bulletin states: “Cleaning can be done from a truck mounted unit outside the facility with only the hose and wand brought inside, or where a truck mounted unit cannot reach (such as a high rise), by a portable, self-contained system brought into the facility.”
Frequently Asked Questions
Dry Foam:? The carpet cleaner applies shampoo to your carpet, allows it to dry, and then, without rinsing, sucks the dried shampoo into a vacuum.

This method leaves dirty residue in your carpet, which is one reason dry foam is not too effective.
Bonnet cleaning (so-called dry cleaning):? This method is similar to dry foam except that the company sets a large cotton bonnet on your carpet and with a floor polishing buffer machine on top ‘buffs’ the carpet. The rotating motion causes the bonnet to absorb dirt from your carpet. This method is also called bonnet cleaning. Bonnet cleaning is like trying to use a large wet towel or mop to rub the dirt out of your carpet.
