Industrial Steam Cleaners

Frequently Asked Questions
Surfaces that cannot be safely steam cleaned include unsealed natural stone or hardwood, leather, certain delicate fabrics like silk, and any electrical outlets or appliances.
A commercial steam cleaner heats water in a pressurized boiler to superheated temperatures (often over 300°F) to create a low-moisture vapor that breaks down dirt and sanitizes surfaces without chemicals.
For effective commercial cleaning and sanitation, a steam cleaner with a pressure of 60 PSI or higher is considered good, with many powerful units reaching 90 to 120 PSI for heavy-duty tasks.
If you do not use distilled water, mineral scale from tap water will accumulate inside the boiler and heating elements, reducing efficiency, potentially causing blockages, and shortening the machine's lifespan.
Putting tap water in a steam cleaner will lead to a buildup of mineral deposits (limescale) that can clog jets, reduce heating efficiency, and eventually damage internal components like the pump and boiler.
No, boiling water only kills microorganisms and produces steam, but it leaves all the hard water minerals behind, whereas distillation completely removes minerals and impurities by vaporizing and re-condensing the water.
