How does a steam mop work?

A steam mop is a device that resembles a vertical mini-vacuum cleaner in its action and appearance. The main difference of the new steam cleaner is that it comes with a steam cleaner.

How a steam mop works

The steam power is adjustable; for difficult areas, steam cleaning is turned on at full power. You can wash floors with an electric mop without using chemicals.

This amazing device combines:

1. Ability to remove dust and small debris from surfaces.
2. Ease of operation.
3. Steam cleaning function.

Reference! The device is equipped with a small tank into which water is poured. The medium-sized tank holds 350 g. liquids. For a mop, you don’t need to buy a clean one; the one that flows from the kitchen tap is suitable. When heated, water turns into steam, which is supplied to the nozzle.

Depending on the model, a universal mop weighs from 2 to 3 kg. Operating a device with such a weight does not cause any difficulties, even when steam treating tiled walls in the bathroom.

Ease of control of the device is ensured due to the special design of individual components:

1. The base rotates 360 degrees and has a triangular shape. This makes it possible to clean in the most inaccessible corners of the apartment.
2. Most models have a height-adjustable handle.
3. The package includes several attachments designed for cleaning surfaces of different textures.

Attention! The functional features of the electric mop allow you to wash heavily soiled surfaces and disinfect them.

The device is small in size and is not designed for cleaning large debris. For high-quality cleaning, before treating surfaces with a steam cleaner, you need to sweep or vacuum the floor.

What functions does a steam mop perform?

The functions of the unit are not limited to cleaning floors; it has a wide range of applications. It should be noted how it works and what such a mop can do::

3. Disinfect microwave ovens.
4. Wash the car interior.
5. Clean plastic windows.
6. Vacuum the curtains (minimum steam power is turned on).
7. Clean carpets and upholstered furniture.
8. Wash any plastic surfaces.

Surfaces are disinfected by heating steam to 100 degrees.

Important! Each device is supplied with a factory instruction manual. The steam cleaner is adjustable; a different mode is recommended for each surface.
