Summer Carpet Cleaning - DIY Carpet Cleaner



Genesis 950 - The Best Green Stain Remover & Cleaner

When it comes to carpet cleaning, professional carpet cleaning is one option, however it is expensive. Some companies can charge over $100 for one room. On top of that, they might add charges for various levels of cleaning. In addition to hefty price tags, there are scheduling conflicts. You have to make yourself available based on their schedule. What's even more troubling is not knowing exactly what they are using to clean your carpets. Is it safe? Will it damage your carpet? What happens if an area doesn't get cleaned to your expectations? In some cases, the stains may appear to be removed, only to have them reappear in the future.


Carpet cleaning can easily be done by yourself for less the cost of a professional and with better results. Genesis 950 is the best carpet cleaner for general cleaning as well as targeting old or hard setting stains. Genesis 950 is a cleaner unlike any other. It is a surfactant based, green cleaner. Being a surfactant, it works with water to be absorbed by the stains and break them down. Once a stain is broken down, it can be flushed from the surface. Genesis 950 does more than just remove stains. It also has antibacterial agents which kill germs that can cause illness or foul odors.

The best way to clean carpets with Genesis 950 is by using it in a carpet cleaning machine or steam cleaner. There are several different brands of steam cleaners available. They can also be rented from local businesses. Many manufacturers of these machines also offer various lines of cleaning products, however none have the cleaning power of Genesis 950.

Many of these cleaners are soap based. A soap based cleaner is more likely to attract dirt to an area, rather than break the dirt and stains down. This makes reoccurring stains more likely as the cleaners do not kill the germs and bacteria under the surface of the carpet. If the padding does not get cleaned, the stains resurface. When a soap based cleaner is used, the dirt and grime attracted to the soaps eventually become visible.


HOW TO CLEAN WITH GENESIS 950

Simply fill the solution compartment up with Genesis 950, and the water compartment with water. These machines typically have settings such as "High," "Medium," "Low" and "Rinse." By choosing the appropriate setting, the machine will automatically mix the water and solution automatically. When doing a basic clean, select the "Low" or "Medium" setting. If you are dealing with a prominent stain or pet stains, select "High." Be sure to check the solution compartment often as some machines run through it fast when using the high setting.

Other machines have 1 large tank where the water and the cleaning solution are mixed together. This is very typical of machines that can be rented. For these machines, simply mix the solution as needed based on the severity of the stains. If it is a general carpet cleaning, stick to the 1 part Genesis 950 to 7 parts water mix. For pet stains and food stains, a 1/3 Genesis 950 to 2/3 water mix can be used. If the carpet is obnoxious and filthy, you can go as high as a 50/50 mix.

When cleaning, take your time going over the area. Slowly release the mixture of Genesis 950 and water onto the carpet. After you have gone over the carpet, allow the mixture of 950 and water to sit for a few minutes. This is where Genesis 950 does the work. As the 950 comes in contact with the stains, it becomes absorbed by them. When this happens, the stain becomes water soluble. As the stain becomes water soluble, it breaks down. In addition to breaking down stains, the 950 will also break apart dirt, pollen, and any bacteria in the carpet.



After the carpet has been left alone for a brief period, change the settings of the machine so you can do a complete rinse. In a machine with 2 compartments, simply remove the solution compartment or change the setting to "Rinse." In a machine with 1 compartment, fill that compartment with fresh water and nothing else. Proceed to rinse the areas that you had initially cleaned with. You will notice the return water coming back filthy. In some cases, the 950 breaks so much down that the return water almost looks like mud. Repeat the rinsing to pull out as much as you can out of the carpet. If possible, keep rinsing until the water comes back looking clear. Obviously of the carpet has not been cleaned for some time, or it is a high traffic area, you may have to rinse a lot for this to happen. If that is the case, rinse until you are satisfied.

After you have rinsed the carpet, it is important to allow the carpet to dry. While excess moisture in the padding may promote bacteria or mold growth, the Genesis 950 fights that with it's antibacterial agents and actually prevents such growth. However, thoroughly drying the carpet is recommended. If weather permits and humidity levels are low, open windows to help the process. Fans and dehumidifiers can also be used to speed up the drying process.

Genesis 950 is the best way to remove pet stains. It does so safely and effectively. However, the uses for Genesis 950 don't stop with pet stains. As an all purpose cleaner it can easily replace the majority of cleaners used in the home.
