Carpet vs Hard Floor: Different Machines Required
Carpet cleaning is fundamentally different from hard floor scrubbing. Carpet fibers trap dirt below the surface — a standard floor scrubber just pushes dirt around on carpet. You need extraction equipment that injects cleaning solution deep into fibers, agitates, and then vacuums the dirty solution back out. Aikerui offers carpet extractors alongside our hard floor scrubbers for facilities with mixed flooring.
Types of Carpet Cleaning Machines
Three main types of commercial carpet cleaning equipment:
- Carpet Extractor: Injects solution deep into fibers, agitates with brush, then extracts dirty water. Best for deep cleaning. Hotel corridors, office carpets.
- Bonnet Cleaner: Uses a rotating absorbent pad to clean carpet surface. Faster than extraction but less deep cleaning. Best for maintenance between deep cleans.
- Carpet Scrubber: Combines scrubbing with extraction. Best for heavily soiled commercial carpet. Airports, convention centers, high-traffic retail.
