In cleaning tests on all major brands of stain-resist treatments by Certified Testing Laboratories, Inc., Dalton, Georgia, a leading independent carpet industry test group in the United States, the HOST® Dry Extraction Carpet Cleaning System proved to be ideal for deep-cleaning stain-resist carpeting without removing the stain-resist properties of the carpet. The tests were performed on clean stain-resist carpet and equalled 5 to 10 years of normal cleanings. Importantly, the results of the tests showed that multiple cleanings with the HOST System had no more impact on the stain-resist properties of the carpet than a year of weekly aggressive vacuuming. And that should be reassuring news for those who are concerned about protecting their carpet's warranty.
Certified's tests also showed that the HOST System was just as effective in removing spots and spills as home cleaning remedies recommended by the stain-resist manufacturers. And because the HOST System was specially developed to clean carpeting, it was found to be significantly better in reducing the occurrence and degree of resoiling.
The HOST Dry Extraction System is recognized as one of the finest methods to deep clean large expanses of quality carpet economically and thoroughly. But it is also an ideal way to clean small areas (traffic lanes, track-off areas, etc.) on a regular basis without having to clean the whole carpet. And with HOST, there is no danger of overwetting. In fact, the HOST System leaves carpets dry and ready-to-use immediately.
As a leader in the carpet cleaning industry for 30 years, we're delighted that HOST has proven to be an ideal way to clean today's hi-tech, stain-resist carpet.
