When you choose Chem-Dry, you get a deeper clean, faster-drying carpets and a healthier home for you and your family.Chem-Dry has become a trusted name in carpet cleaning for thousands of households, cleaning in more than 10,000 households daily worldwide and more than 1 billion square feet of carpet every year, and for good reason. We use a unique Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) process to deliver a deeper, longer-lasting carpet cleaning combined with a green-certified solution that is all natural and safe for your kids and pets. This means you get a clean that is healthier for you, your family and your home.

DRIER. The Chem-Dry cleaning process uses 80% less water than typical steam cleaning, so carpets dry within hours, not days. This means you and your family can get back to enjoying your home sooner. See a full comparison of Chem-Dry vs steam cleaning to see all of the benefits of choosing Chem-Dry carpet cleaners.

CLEANER. Our primary solution is carbonated and, just like club soda, as it penetrates deep into your carpet's fibers, it lifts the dirt from deep within your carpets so it can be whisked away with our powerful extraction equipment giving you the most thorough clean. And there is no dirt-attracting residue left behind, so carpets stay cleaner longer.

HEALTHIER. We use a low-water method which means there is less risk of mold and mildew growth under your carpet that can result from the excessive water used by most steam cleaners. We use an all natural, green-certified cleaning solution that does not contain any harsh soaps or chemicals and is completely safe and non-toxic for your family and pets. Additionally, an independent air quality lab found that our HCE method removes 98% of common allergens in your carpets and upholstery, and when a sanitizer is added, 89% of bacteria is removed for your indoor air*. That adds up to a safer carpet cleaning that is healthier for you, your family and your home.

Our HCE Process is Tested & Proven to Remove Allergens and Bacteria

Chem-Dry removes allergens and improves indoor air qualityWe understand that you have a choice in carpet cleaners. But not all carpet cleaning services are alike. To find out how big an impact a Chem-Dry cleaning can have on home health, we thought it would be helpful to measure how effective our cleaning process is in eliminating unhealthy and unwanted elements from your home.

So we commissioned a leading independent air quality laboratory to conduct a study using Chem-Dry’s Hot Carbonating Extraction (HCE) process in multiple homes. The lab found that Chem-Dry carpet cleaner removes an average of 98.1% of common household allergens such as dust mite allergens and pet dander from the carpets and upholstery we clean and found that, when adding sanitizer to our HCE carpet cleaning process, we removed an average of 89% of the bacteria in the air and 82.3% of the bacteria from carpets. With Chem-Dry carpet cleaner, you can breathe easier about the healthfulness of your home for your family.

Fight Stains with Carpet Protectant Package 

Your carpets get a lot of use, spills are inevitable. Over time, the factory-applied stain resistant becomes less effective and fades away leaving your carpets susceptible to staining. Chem-Dry Protectants refreshes the performance of stain resistant carpets, creating a barrier around the carpet fibers to resist soiling and staining by allowing spills to be removed before staining can occur.

Protect Package: A trio of protectants to revitalize the stain resistant power of your carpet:

- PowerGuard Protectant®- This revolutionary carpet stain protectant not only gives a boost to your carpet’s stain-resisting powers, but works well with solution-dyed carpets.

- Repel Protectant- Repel Protectant works with all kinds of carpets by forming a protective shield around each carpet fiber. This liquid-repelling carpet solution doesn’t give stains the chance to set in. It repels most stains, allowing a window of opportunity for you to soak up the spill on your own before it adheres to the carpet fiber.

- Wool Protectant- Chem-Dry’s Wool Protectant is a water-based solution specifically designed to enhance the stain resistant qualities of wool carpets and rugs. It defends against most liquid spills to stop stains in their tracks.

Preparing your home for a Chem-Dry carpet cleaning

Step 1: Declutter
The first thing you’ll want to do is remove any clutter from the area being cleaned. This includes things like shoes and socks, toys, books, or anything else that may have found its way onto the carpet being cleaned. All of our cleaning packages include a pre-vacuuming, but clutter can be a tripping hazard.

Step 2: Move light furniture
To ensure that everything is cleaned properly, you will want to move light furniture out of the way. Our carpet cleaning technicians are experts at making your home fresh and clean, but they are not licensed to move furniture. Clearing the area of things like plant stands, coffee tables, and floor lamps will allow the Chem-Dry technician to reach all of the out of the way areas on your carpet. You don’t have to move the bigger pieces that are unlikely to move, but the more furniture you have out of the way, the better results you can expect.

Step 3: Put away fragile or valuable items
If you have any fragile or valuable items in the area, you will want to move them to a safe location, out of the way. While our Chem-Dry technicians take the utmost care when cleaning your carpet, it is always wise to avoid any unnecessary risks.

Step 4: Make note of problem areas you'd like the technician to pay special attention to
We do a pre-inspection and spot test before each carpet cleaning, but if there is a specific area you want our technician to focus on, feel free to let us know. It is important to us that you are completely satisfied with your service, so make sure to tell us how to make that happen!

Step 5: Prepare your pets
If you have pets, make sure that they are kept in a place away from the area being cleaned. This will allow the Chem-Dry technician to focus on the work of cleaning your carpet without having to worry about tripping over your pet.

Step 6: Provide easy access
Many of our Chem-Dry technicians use van-mounted equipment, so it helps when they can park as close to the door as possible. Even those not using van-based systems will need to bring their equipment inside, so a clear path to the carpet they are cleaning is essential.
