Bio-preferred Certified
HOST Dry Carpet Cleaner requires no special disposal and can be composted. Host is the first dry carpet cleaner to receive Bio
Preferred Certification. Bio Preferred products are generally safer for the environment then their petroleum counterparts and
bio-degradable.
Conservation of Resources
Water
This point is often overlooked: water extractors use large amounts of water. Further, they generate large amounts of wastewater
which burdens sewers and water treatment facilities. Also, wastewater left in the carpet evaporates, humidifying buildings and forcing
air conditioner and dehumidifiers to run harder and longer.
Using HOST saves water. In fact, the HOST System deep cleans carpet with 97% less water than typical high-flow water extractors.
However as HOST Dry Carpet Cleaner is ready-to-use, the actual water savings in any building using it is 100%.
Compared to year's worth of typical high-flow water extraction cleaning of 50,000 square feet of carpet, the HOST System:
- Saves 205,716 gallons of fresh water per year.
- Reduces waste water by 174,859 gallons per year.
- Reduces water affecting indoor humidity by 30,857 gallons per year, relieving the workload on HVAC systems and
reducing mold growth potential.
Energy
Many environmental organizations recognize that it takes quite a bit of energy to heat water used in water extraction cleaning
methods. In an effort to lower costs and energy use, such organizations are supporting cleaning systems that do not use water. With
HOST there is:
- No water to heat.
- No need to use blowers.
- No need for air conditioners to dry carpets.
- No need for dehumidifiers to remove moisture.
