Hot Water Extraction
Contact UsHot Water Extraction (HWE): The Gold Standard in Carpet Cleaning
At AZ Spotless Experts, we don’t just clean — we restore. That’s why we use Hot Water Extraction(HWE) , the most advanced, fiber-safe, and IICRC-approved method for deep carpet cleaning. It’s often confused with steam cleaning, but HWE goes far beyond vapor — it uses superheated water and high-powered suction to extract embedded dirt, grime, allergens, and more from deep within your carpet fibers.
Why HWE Outperforms Other Methods
- Thermal PowerHigh heat activates solutions and dissolves oily soils.
- Jet Agitation Dislodges stubborn particles from carpet backing.
- Precision Chemistry Encapsulates soil for cleaner results without overwetting.
- Rapid Drying Advanced extraction reduces moisture, minimizing mold or wicking risks
