How Water Extraction Is Done on Different Floors

The method depends on the floor and the water. Clean water in carpet calls for different tools than gray water on hardwood.

T

Truck-Mount Extraction

For large areas, a truck-mounted unit with strong vacuum lift pulls water through long hoses, removing far more per pass than any portable machine.

W

Weighted Carpet and Pad Extraction

Weighted tools press down on the carpet and draw water out of the pad underneath, which can save the carpet.

H

Saving Wet Hardwood

Specialized floor mats connected to high-pressure vacuum draw moisture up through the boards and the gaps between them, giving solid hardwood a real chance at survival.

S

When Pad Has to Go

Water category decides what stays. Clean water may only cost you the pad, while sewage or floodwater means the carpet goes too.

M

Verified Extraction

Readings before and after show how much water was removed and set the starting point for drying.
