Q.  What is Steam Cleaning?

Vapor steam cleaning is the latest in cleaning technology. Steam cleaning uses steam and pressure to clean and sanitize most surfaces instantly killing dust mites, viruses, molds, and fungi.

Steam cleaning is extremely effective at sanitizing your home and keeping your family healthy -- killing germs that cause allergies and illnesses.

Q.  Can I use regular tap water in my steam cleaner?

Yes, but depending on how ‘hard’ your water is, mineral deposits can build up in your tank over time limiting the amount of steam that can be released and eventually causing the unit to malfunction.

The Steam Extreme 3000 can be cleaned regularly using a solution of 2 parts white vinegar to 1 part water, but if distilled water is available, that’s the best solution.
