Deciding Which Hard Surface Cleaners are Best for You

Selecting quality hard surface cleaners can be tricky. Each machine has different specifications and features ideal for different cleaning tasks. With a wide variety of machines available on the market today, it is important to understand which machine is best suited for cleaning hard surfaces.

Which Machine to Choose

The most commonly recommended hard surface cleaners for the cleaning industry are steam cleaners and pressure washers. Steam cleaners use high temperature output and moderate pressure levels to clean, while pressure washers use high pressure levels and average to high temperature levels to clean hard surfaces and remove challenging deposits. Each of these machines has their own advantages. The following is a brief summary of both pressure washers and steam cleaners.

Steam Cleaners

The main strength of steam cleaners as hard surface cleaners involves the high temperature output, which can range up to 386°F. However, it is important to make sure the surface being cleaned can withstand such high temperature levels. In addition, steam cleaners are not suitable for cleaning large stretches of carpets, but are capable of spot cleaning small carpeted areas.

Pressure Washers

Pressure washers rely on their output pressure for cleaning. As hard surface cleaners, these machines can blast away dirt and impurities. The output pressure of these machines can vary up to 8000 psi. Such high pressure levels are generally used for heavy duty industrial degreasing. For commercial cleaning jobs, machines with a pressure level of 3000 psi or less are adequate.

Whether you select steam cleaners or pressure washers, it is important to select the right brand. Daimer®, a major supplier of cleaning machines, offers many models of hard surface cleaners. For more details, visit www.daimer.com.

XTreme Power® HSC 16200

The XTreme Power® HSC 16200 is a robust hard surface cleaner designed for use in industrial and commercial applications. Unlike other hard surface cleaners, the HSC 16200 is actually four powerful machines in one: a hard surface spinner machine featuring Daimer®’s patented, motorized 9” spinner head, a steam pressure washer, a wall cleaning system, and a sludge extractor.

These hard surface cleaners feature astounding pressure levels up to 2000 psi, higher than most other hard surface cleaners in the industry. But, unlike any other hard surface cleaners, the HSC 16200’s spinner head rotates at a rapid speed of 1000 rpm. The speed, pressure and high flow rate (4 GPM) of the HSC 16200 make it one of the most powerful hard surface cleaners in the industry.

If this wasn’t enough, the pressure washer and sludge extractor can be sued independently for even greater versatility. The HSC 16200 features Daimer®’s Super Max 12200 triple-function pressure washer with the ability to be operated as a hot water, cold water or steam pressure washer. And, the included sludge extractor is actually Daimer®’s XTreme Power® 11500SE sludge extractor. This strong extractor is highly beneficial in water damage restoration.

Many other hard surface cleaners offer limited power for limited applications. But, the XTreme Power® HSC 16200 sets itself apart in its ability to tackle the most difficult applications on virtually any hard surface, including tile and grout, VCT, vinyl floors, rubber floors, stone, marble, and other uneven and even surfaces.
