How to Identify and Fix Common Vacuum Problems ?

Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced Vacuum Technicians :

It uses steam to sanitize, refresh and deodorize your carpets while debris is suctioned off of your floor by the vacuum. Your steamer is used for spot cleaning only.
The McCulloch MC1275 Heavy-Duty Steam Cleaner is a professional quality solution for those who are serious about steam cleaning. Using ordinary water heated to over 200ºF, the Steam Cleaner effectively and naturally cleans and sanitizes a wide variety of surfaces.
Most steam cleaners are designed to be used without detergent, so stick to water only with these. Some models, on the other hand, can be used with detergent – follow the manufacturer`s instructions.
How Steam Cleaners Work. Water is heated past the boiling point and forced out as pressurized steam through a nozzle, brush, or other attachment. The vapor loosens dirt and kills dust mites, mold, staph, and other allergens and harmful bacteria. No suction is required, since the high-heat moisture dries quickly.
Except when you are descaling a steam mop, do NOT put anything other than water in the tank. Not only does this defeat the primary purpose of steam cleaning (in avoiding chemical cleaners), but you can possibly damage your steam cleaner. For many steamers, you may also be voiding your warranty in the process.
Using the Fill Cup, fill the unit with 48 oz (1,420 ml) of water. NOTE: In order to significantly reduce mineral build-up and prolong the life of your Canister Steam System, use of distilled or de-mineralized water in the unit is highly recommended.
Since distilled water is free of such minerals and salts, as well as any other chemicals that could have the same impact, it won`t corrode the steamer. This is one of the best options to prevent future corrosion and ensures the product`s long and happy life.
The fabric brush that is included with most garment steamers is a great way to get lint and dust off upholstery or clothing that isn`t ready for the wash. Simply give the item a once over with the fabric brush attached to the steamer, and you should be good to go!
Fill the Tank With Vinegar

Fill the tank with distilled white vinegar or cleaning vinegar. Avoid using other types of vinegar because they may have sediment that interferes with the cleaning process.

Designed with versatility, this canister steam cleaner has up to 120-minutes of continuous cleaning power, 23 accessories to help with the cleaning and a 12-minute heat up time for the water.
Our testing has found that all steam mops remove stains fairly well, with marginal differences, and are likely slightly better than a regular mop and bucket due to the heat and vapour produced by the steam.
Typical steam cleaners can use anywhere from 1000 to 1800 watts. (For comparison sake, a typical lamp uses about 60 watts, while a typical computer uses about 365 watts).
But if you don`t have time and need to re-wear the clothing soon, steaming is an option. Yes, steam cleaners can eliminate odors. It does so because of the heat produced and applied to the fabric. Steam can do a lot of great things for your fancy clothes.
Consider your specific needs and preferences when choosing which one to use. If you have hard floors and want a time-saving, deep cleaning solution, a vacuum mop may be worth the investment. If you prefer a more eco-friendly, versatile, and budget-friendly option, a steam mop may be the way to go.
So, where does the dirt go when you steam clean? Actually, it doesn`t go anywhere. Instead, the heat and vapour of steam cleaning ensure that all the unwanted substances or stains are fully broken down and easy to get rid of.
Inspired Steam Mop and Steam Machine Descaler is ideal to remove built up minerals and limescale deposits from you Steam Machine system. Using Inspired Steam Mop and Steam Machine Descaler will ensure your system works more efficiently and will help it to last longer.
Soap only lifts dirt and oil into water, making them suspend in water. Therefore, the more soap you use, the more your mop gets saturated with dirt. So, if you do not remove all the soapy water from the floor, the dirt remains, forming streaks on the floor.
If you are steaming food in a basket over boiling water in a pot, the food should never come in contact with the actual water, but rather just the vapor of the steam coming off it. So you never want to add too much water, but you also don`t want to add too little that it evaporates before properly steaming your food.
We have had some customers who have had their steam cleaners for 5-8 years and are still going strong. For less expensive models like the steam mops or handhelds, you should probably expect more like 3-6 years of consistent use.
Depending on how you use the steamer, and what pressure setting you choose, steam can last between 1 to 2.5 hours.
Toilet cleaning

You can use the fine nozzle for toilets at the highest steam output. This will give you the best cleaning results for really dirty areas, (this also works for sinks and drains). Put vinegar on limescale areas first and then hover the steam cleaner over it.

Most cottons, silks, wools and polyesters can be steamed. Waxed jackets, suede and materials that could possibly melt, like plastic, should not be steamed. If you are unsure about a material, check fabric care labels for advice.
Never overfill. Never use water left overnight in steamer.
Please do not use perfumed water, water from the tumble dryer, vinegar, starch, descaling agents, ironing aids, chemically descaled water or other chemicals as they may cause water spitting, brown staining or damage to your steam iron or garment steamer.
