• What is Steam Pressure? Steam is produced when the water is heated at very high temperatures. The measure unit used for steam pressure is Bars, so when it comes to steam cleaners, the higher the Bar pressure the more powerful they are. Steam cleaners for surface cleaning in businesses or at home usually have steam pressure of 4-8 Bars. On the other hand, industrial steam cleaners will be more powerful, with steam pressure that can range from 8 to 10 Bars. If you feel more comfortable using psi units instead of bars, you only need to do the conversion (1 Bar = 14.50 psi).
• Two Functions in One – Steam and Vacuum – You will find that some steam cleaners have also vacuuming function, which is very useful when after cleaning the surface with steam you need to vacuum any dirt or residues from the treated surface. Most of the steam cleaners Alphaclean promote & support come with this dual function but if price is a concern, then a steam only model will do the job and you can vacuum the residues with a conventional wet & dry vacuum cleaner afterwards.
• Uninterrupted Operation – One of the most important features that commercial and industrial steam cleaners have is that they don’t stop working while refilling the water tank. These types of cleaners usually come at a slightly larger investment but they are well worth it, especially when used in business or commercial applications.
• Steam cleaners with detergent injection – Another feature that some steam cleaners have is detergent integration with the machine. Although steam itself is a very efficient and effective cleaner, sometimes there are cases when the help of detergent or chemical is required to help obtain the best results.
