Useful information on steam cleaning:
Water in the form of steam has an ecological cleaning action and is superior
to modern detergents. In the form of steam, water is used sparingly.
The steam produced by the machine because of the high temperature
reached dissolves fats and dust particles which are normally hard to remove.
Steam has an hygienic cleaning action and leaves no way out to bacteria,
mites, germs, pathogens; it binds dust particles, thus preventing dust from
causing any allergies.
You can benefit from all these advantages by using the steam cleaner for
your household works and at the same time you can make your contribution
to the environment.
