Work Techniques
8
The temperature of the steam at the tip of the nozzle is between 312ºF -285ºF, it
cools to 245ºF 4” from the nozzle tip and 185ºF 8” inches from the nozzle tip.
Most bacteria begins to die when exposed to temperatures of 245ºF so keeping the
tip of the handle close to the work area is key to successful cleaning.
Floors
ØMarble Floors -Use the same techniques as used for wood floors, keeping heat and moisture off
the surface as much as possible. Always use Marble conditioner after cleaning. SOME MARBLE
SURFACES CAN DISCOLOR.
ØVinyl or Wood –Use the large floor brush with a bonnet at low steam volume.
WHEN STEAMING A WOOD FLOOR, NEVER LET BRUSH STAND IN ONE
PLACE WHILE STEAM TRIGGER IS ON. ALWAYS KEEP BRUSH MOVING. GO
OVER AREA TWO OR THREE TIMES AS NEEDED.
Bed Bugs & Dust Mites
Bed bugs and dust mites live close to their food source. Steam will kill bed bugs on
contact.
To eliminate, you must kill the bugs and their larva.
ØUse large triangle brush with bonnet.
ØSteam mattresses, areas around bed, and all base boards.
ØBugs will die on contact so you will need to vacuum over treated areas.
ØMattress will be damp so let it air dry before putting on linens.
ØIt may take more than one cleaning to kill all bugs and larva.
CLEANING: Grout
①Connect the silver extensions wands and
nozzle to hose handle.
②Attach 1”nylon brush to nozzle.
③Steam pressure: Medium
④Apply gentle pressure to the brush during
cleaning.
ØLet the steam do the work.
ØSteam will push the dirt out of the grout.
Use a towel to wipe.
ØAngle the brush to clean the edges of
grout line.
CLEANING: Tile
①Attach large floor brush.
②Steam pressure: Medium
③Move slowly over tile allowing steam to
penetrate the pores in the tile.
④It may be necessary to wrap the brush
with a towel for deeper cleaning.

Carpets
We do not recommend this steam cleaner for cleaning large carpeted areas but rather for spot
cleaning. Carpet fibers melt at temperatures 300ºF and above. The heat from the vapor
system should not melt the fibers, but it can change their shape or color at temperatures
185ºF-250ºF.
Treating Carpet Stains
If the stain is only on the surface of the carpet, it can be removed by shooting the steam against the
spot from the side, 1-2 inches above surface. Hold a towel on the other side to catch the residue.
This prevents driving the particles deeper into the fibers.

medium steam.

Corners/Crevices

dirt with a spare cotton towel to prevent it from spraying everywhere.
Refrigerator: Please remove food, bins and shelves from the refrigerator before cleaning
ØExterior Surfaces –Use the large triangular brush with a bonnet on low or medium steam.
