The Choice Is Yours

Traditional Rotary Scrubber (Good)

This method provides for good agitation, but lacks extraction and can therefore over wet and damage carpet if the technician is not properly trained or does not have the proper experience. Though this method is not recommended in most cases, it may be the best option for specific carpet types in certain commercial carpet situations where the use of other methods is not possible.

Scrub Wand (Better)

This method provides for good extraction, but forward and backward cleaning action depends on manual labor, operator strength and endurance in order to receive consistent results each time. This is a better method than the Traditional Rotary Scrubber method mentioned above and can be very effective in most carpet cleaning situations.

RX-20 Rotary Cleaning System (Best)

This is the most effective method for cleaning your carpets and will usually produce the best results. It provides for the best agitation and extraction since the machine does all the hard work and it does not depend on manual labor, operator strength and endurance like the Scrub Wand method mentioned above. The revolutionary self-powered RX-20 consistently cleans all areas of the carpet every time, since the operator’s physical strength is not an issue.

The RX-20 applies the power of 5 men simultaneously cleaning, returning carpet fibers to a like new fluffy condition. Five powerful cleaning heads rotate over the carpet, flushing and removing deeply embedded soil from all sides of the carpet fiber. It deep cleans your carpet using the a brushless, rotary cleaning action which restores your carpet’s color and resiliency all in a one step process. This state-of-the-art device, along with the power and heat of the Boxxer™ 421 Truckmount offers unmatched cleaning ability that can clean even the dirtiest carpets restoring their natural beauty once again. If you are looking for the best possible results every time, the RX-20 Rotary Cleaning System is the way to go!

Carpet Protection

Once we have cleaned your carpet it is a good idea to protect it. We recommend Scotchgard™ Protector, this will help protect against both oil and water based stains. It will help your carpet stay cleaner longer and make it so stains release more easily when your carpet is cleaned again. Scotchgard™ Protector helps keep spills from becoming hard-to-remove spots or stains. It repels liquids, so spills can be blotted up quickly and easily. Spills blot up before they become stains and it is even effective against fruit drinks, soft drinks and frozen fruit treats! The best time to apply Scotchgard™ Protector is right after cleaning; Pacific Carpet & Tile Cleaning of Orange County can do it for you. Regular vacuuming and prompt cleanup of spills will help maintain the bright, freshly cleaned look for a long time. Be sure and ask about it when you have us clean your carpets!

Carpet Deodorizer

If it stinks, we’ve got your solution! Unwanted odors in your home or business, may be coming from your carpet. Remember, your carpet is like a large air filter and can therefore retain unpleasant odors. Why not have Pacific Carpet & Tile Cleaning apply a deodorizer to your carpet the next time you have us clean them. When you have us apply a carpet deodorizer, you can eliminate any unwanted odors and leave your house smelling fresh throughout. No matter if its pet odors, urine odors, smoke odors or any other kind of odor you are experiencing, we can eliminate it and help you breath a breath of fresh air once again.

ODORCIDE® & MICROBAN®
