The five Chem-Dry strengths

What sets Chem-Dry apart, in plain language.

    Healthier Deeper Clean

    Cleaner through the pile, not just on top

    Hot Carbonating Extraction lifts dirt, dust and allergens out of the carpet fibre instead of pushing them around. Good news for Adelaide homes, where dust from hot, dry summers settles deep into the weave.

    Fast Drying Times

    Back on your floors sooner

    Chem-Dry uses about 80% less water than typical steam cleaning, so most carpets dry fast. Less water also matters in cool, damp Adelaide winters, when soaked carpet can stay wet for hours with the windows shut.
