The Power of Steam

 

What about getting rid of dust mites?

Do you realize that you may have a million or more dust mites thriving on your bed? They cause allergies and make life miserable. As we said, you can kill nasty dust mites and control their population from multiplying with a McCulloch or Steamfast steam cleaner. Instead of using chemicals to destroy these pests, Steamfast uses water heated to temperatures of 140 degrees F is to kill these critters.

You’ll get rid of more dust mite allergens with regular steam cleaning and vacuuming of mattresses, bed clothing, carpets and upholstery. (in case you are into studies on this subject: a study conducted by M.J. Colioff et. al. [Clinical and Experimental Allergy, 1995, volume 25, 1061-1066] concluded that the best way to reduce the dust mites is to combine steam cleaning with vacuuming.)

Does steaming work on clothing?

Steam under less pressure works really well in getting rid of those unsightly wrinkles. Our Steamfast fabric steamers refresh your clothing and other fabrics. You can also refresh and remove wrinkles from your curtains, upholstery and your delicate fabrics faster and easier with a fabric steamer.
Steamfast is also very effective in removing wrinkles from the newest delicate organic fabrics, such as the biodegradable ingeo (corn), bamboo, seaweed and other organic fabrics. Linda Loudermilk studio in Los Angeles (www.lindaloudermilk.com) used our Steamfast fabric steamers to refresh their organic fabrics when ironing destroyed the delicate earth-friendly materials.

Will using a fabric steamer save money over dry cleaning?

Steam is a great improvement over the ubiquitous iron. One, because people can reduce their trips to the dry cleaners – saving money and two, reducing the use of harmful chemicals that dry cleaners use on your clothing.
