What We Use

State of the Art Equipment and Solutions

All Cleaning is done according to Standards recommended by the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification and Leading Carpet Mills Worldwide.  We offer a range of cleaning methods and techniques, based on carpet construction, fiber type, level of soiling, required dry times etc.  Choosing a company that has the capacity to Steam OR Dry Clean Carpets is recommended.

Don't be fooled and then over-sold and overpay huge upsells by companies that recommend Dry Chemical Cleaning.  ALWAYS ASK FOR PROOF OF

1.)  IICRC Certification

2.) Truck-mounted hot water extraction (proven by industry experts to be most effective).

Our system is a premium, #1 rated cleaning, NOT shampoo, bubbles and low pressure extraction.  Truck-mounted Steam Cleaning, done by a certified, licensed and trained professional, is a key ingredient in the cleaning carpets because of RINSE/EXTRACTION capability.  "Truck-Mounted"  systems refer to the larger, highly technical cleaning machines that are bolted into the back of a full size van.  The machine stays inside the van, with a high pressure hose and large vacuum hose connected.  Truck-Mounts are recommended because they "may" produce up to 20 times more water flow AND recovery than a "portable" extractor, and many have the ability to REALLY heat the water.

There is a movement towards building truckmounts that are easier to operate and more user friendly.  The trade off is performance.  Many electric and direct drive truckmounts are now compromising the true benefits of the truckmounted system for the sake of simplicity and cost.  Comparing our truckmounted systems to some of the units we've seen in Whatcom is like comparing a NASCAR Racer to a Ford Pinto.  Ask about our heat/flow/recovery ratings and our "LIE DETECTOR" guages and testing which verifies our impressive advantage against competing truckmounted Hot Water Extraction equipment.  Add an experienced, certified technician and our Unique blend of cleaning products and the choice is clear.  Swansen's truck-mounted systems are built to exacting specifications with a much greater capacity for water recovery.  Our systems are capable of flowing and recovering up to 3.1 gallons of water per minute at 200+ degrees.  REALLY Hot Water cleans better and evaporates quicker.  Our Truck-mounted systems recover the majority of water used (up to 98%)  using an enormous on-board vacuum which pulls the moisture back to the truck and into an on-board holding tank, and therefore carpets dry very quickly.  The water is ONLY used on the face fibers. 

Our #1 rated Steam Cleaning Systems will have absolutely no effect on the carpet installation.  Choosing the correct system for your needs is only a phone call away.  Call us at 733-1003. 

Our Steam Powermatic (pictured) is an amazing advancement in carpet care technology.  It produces exceptional Flow, Heat and Water Recovery...all critical considerations to insure the safest and most effective cleaning.   

Hot Water Extraction, done properly by the trained and experienced professionals is recommended by Shaw Industries, the worlds leading producer of carpets.   

We DO NOT recommend dry chemical cleaning without having a truckmounted system to rinse out the cleaning agents.  Period. 

Count on our Versatile, Certified Professionals of Swansen's to choose and employ the best method, or combination of methods,  to provide the safest,  most lasting, residue free carpet and upholstery cleaning available today.
