Hot water extraction is explained simply

This deep cleaning method is perfect for most types of upholstered furniture. It is done with professional-grade machines that eject a mixture of hot water and cleaning detergent. The technician will use the machine to dislodge the accumulated dirt found between the fibres of the upholstery. As the cleaning wand ejects the cleaning solution, another suction attachment is working simultaneously to remove the excess moisture and dislodged filth. Almost all of the moisture is removed, leaving your furniture nearly dry.

Dry Sofa Cleaning for Delicate Fabrics

Some fabrics are too delicate and they can't be cleaned with traditional “wet” methods because the water can damage the upholstery. In those cases, we use a dry cleaning method. After pretreatment, the entire piece is sprayed with a misting bottle. We use a special detergent for dry cleaning. The product is left to settle for a few minutes. After that, the technician uses terry cloths to wipe the entire piece. This way, the furniture is refreshed and the risk of damage is avoided.
