Hard Floor Cleaning
Steam vacuum cleaners are an effective way to get many hard surfaces clean. They can help eliminate tough dirt and stains on the surface and, in many cases, can also eliminate germs and bacteria. Steam vacuum cleaners from Daimer® provide powerful steam temperatures up to 386°F and vacuum extraction for eliminating the liquid residue after the cleaning process.

Daimer® offers a variety of steam cleaning options but it is important to know which steam vacuum cleaners will work best on your floor. Steam vacuum cleaners are ideal for marble, concrete, tile and grout, and a number of other surfaces. However, they are not ideal for unsealed hardwood floors.

While using low pressure, go over the floor quickly in a sweeping motion. Then wipe up with a clean towel to pick up any residue. For fine wood floors, ensure that the towel is heated away from the surface. Then use this same heated towel to clean with a sweeping/wiping motion. Since these machines feature an attached vacuum, wiping with a towel after cleaning may not be necessary, as residues are removed from the floor as they are dissolved by the super-hot steam.

For cleaning waxed dirty vinyl flooring, steam vacuum cleaners can be used with the squeegee and brush attachments. The same can be used to clean tile flooring. By using the right steam cleaning equipment on hard flooring, you can keep your floors looking new and well maintained.
