Steam Pressure Cleaners
Harnessing the Cleaning Power of High Pressure Steam
Steam pressure cleaners, also known as steam pressure washers, are the most effective, efficient, and versatile cleaning equipments around. A steam pressure washer is one type of pressure washer, which uses high pressure to emit either hot water, cold water, or steam.
There are, however, some combination pressure washers that can emit all three types of cleaning agents, although steam pressure washers are considered as the most powerful cleaning machines.
Steam pressure washers use a mechanical sprayer to emit high pressure steam over the surface or material that need to be cleaned. The steam can blast away even the stickiest forms of dirt including grease, oil residues, grime, mold, dust, and mud.
What to Look For in A Steam Pressure Cleaner
High temperature – An efficient steam pressure washer should be able to emit steam with temperatures of around 250 to 330 degrees Fahrenheit.
High pressure – The higher the pressure, the easier it will be for the machine to blast away all sorts of sticky dirt and residue. Commercial and industrial grade washers usually have anywhere between 750 and 30,000 psi of pressure.
Wet steam – If you want faster cleaning, look for those that emit wet steam as opposed to those that emit dry vapor. In a wet steam cleaner, after the steam loosens up the dirt, the wetness will automatically wash them away.

#2 For Home Use - Euroflex Monster EZ1 Steam Mop and Floor Steam Cleaner
There are also steam pressure cleaners designed for use at home. Although regular steam cleaners and vacuum cleaners are usually enough for residential use, a pressure washer can cut your cleaning time by a significant margin.
This makes for faster and most cost-efficient cleaning, especially for large residences.
The Euroflex Monster EZ1 uses 4 different steam levels, so you can choose which is most appropriate for your current cleaning need. Ideally, use the lowest steam level for cleaning delicate flooring, the medium level for hardwood floors, and the highest for thick or severely soiled carpets.
The machine also emits steam with 1000 watts of power and 3.5 bar pressure from two directions, one from the bottom and one from the front of the machine; this means you can cover a larger area in one pass. The use of steam reaching up to 266 degrees F makes it effective in cleaning not just dirt but also dust mites, mold, and other allergens that threaten the health of your household. Absolutely no chemicals are used in the cleaning process.
The EZ1 is recommended for cleaning bathrooms, kitchens, and various hard floor surfaces. When you attach the Carpet Glide tool, it also becomes perfect for cleaning carpets and rugs.

Why Use A Steam Pressure Cleaner?
The advantage of steam is that it can penetrate through the sticky dirt to loosen them up, but there is no actual water to damage or seep through the surfaces or structure you are cleaning. This is why steam pressure washers are ideal for cleaning concrete and hardwood floor surfaces
