Professional Steam Cleaner Libra 8 bar

Our generation is the first to be brought up in a chemical soup, so to speak, with the use of chemical cleaning solutions escalating from the 1940’s. Every day we are faced with new evidence of the hazards of constant exposure to chemicals, with proven links to cancer, asthma and chronic fatigue syndrome, amongst others. Steam cleaning uses nothing but pure water, so you’ll not need to worry about being exposed to chemical or toxins.

The high temperature (150°C) and high pressure (5 bars) of steam cleaning has a power that is unmatched. The “neutral” steam, which carries no mineral substances and no electric charges, neutralises the static charges of the dust particles. The steam consequently acts as a gaseous substance, melting and eliminating all fatty substances. Steam easily penetrates the smallest corners, eliminates the dirt and simplifies the cleaning process, rendering it efficient and long-lasting. Steam also eliminates detergent deposits (bio-films) meaning that steamed surfaces look cleaner and brighter.

By using heat to soften the binding agents that hold dirt or stains onto surfaces, steam takes a lot of the work out of cleaning. Old abrasive methods of cleaning are labour intensive and often very slow, and it can become incredibly difficult for elderly people to perform. Steam cleaning means improved working conditions, and less back-breaking labour, which is great news for cleaning staff. The machines are very easy to use too, and this simplicity and speed reduces the fatigue and repetitiveness of the cleaning tasks.

The use of steam also means that in 80% of the cases there is no need for detergents and disinfectants, thus generating important budgetary savings. In general or maintenance cleaning you can achieve outstanding results with nothing but water. By eliminating the use of expensive chemicals and various cleaning tools, your ongoing cleaning costs are hugely reduced, if not completely erased, and with one litre of water producing in excess of fifteen hundred litres of steam, you are using less water than traditional methods of cleaning.

As the saying goes, “we didn’t inherit this world, we are borrowing it from future generations.” As a result, we must be responsible for actions while we’re here. The fact is, cleaning chemicals don’t just disappear. They create a chemical load on our planet, in the same way they build up a chemical load in our bodies. With the arrival of steam cleaning – a truly sustainable cleaning method – there is no longer an excuse for further damaging our fragile environment.

When we pour thousands of litres of waste chemicals down the drain every day, we are poisoning our planet. By using steam, we reduce the use of chemicals by 80-90%, and reduce the use of water by 90-95%. And we use water at an alarming rate. Many people think this isn’t a problem because rain falls from the sky, and hey, we have lots of it! But the fact is, we don’t. Every year we have droughts and more pipe bans. We are reducing our resources, and we can’t keep going on like this. The steam method is the only one of its kind that qualifies as being non-polluting. In fact, the method requires only a minimal dose of chemical products and has a very low water consumption. This is why it’s being chosen by more and more environmentally-friendly businesses as their preferred method of cleaning.

Asthma and allergy sufferers are hyper-sensitive to dust mites (as well as many chemicals) but these and other invisible microbes affect us all in many different ways. The ability that steam has to kill these parasites (and their eggs) breaks the breeding cycle, and although we can never totally eradicate dust mites, by controlling and minimising the populations, we can improve our quality of life.
