1. Steam cleans more thoroughly than chemicals
2. Steam pressure reaches into cracks, crevices and other impossible-to-reach places
3. Steam is very economical, the only consumable is water
4. Steam leaves no chemical residue behind to attract more dirt
5. Steam is better for you (and the environment) than harsh toxic chemicals

1. Steam Cleaning Is Safe

Using steam as your only cleaning agent is a safe, non-toxic alternative that is actually more effective than chemicals. Clinical tests have proven steam cleaning to be more effective in killing common household germs faster (within 2 seconds) and more thoroughly than any chemical application. One steam cleaner system replaces dangerous, toxic, harmful, expensive chemicals with pure, natural, effective, safe steam vapor made from ordinary tap water. Steam cleaning is piece of mind.

2. Cleaning With Steam Enhances The Environment

Cleaning with steam enhances the environment by eliminating the unseen microbes and germs from the surfaces and air in our homes. With a steam cleaner you will not only stop contributing to the pollution problem, you’ll actually improve your quality of life.

Steam cleaners produce pure steam vapor using only ordinary tap water. No chemicals of any kind are ever used in your steamer. That’s better, healthier, and safer for you and the environment. You’ll never need to ask a government agency how to dispose of the wastes produced by your steam cleaner…there are no wastes! Replace your whole stash of cleaning chemical pollutants with a steam cleaner.

3. Steam cleaning does not cause chemical allergies

To my knowledge, no one is actually allergic to steam. Steam replaces chemicals that burn your hands and lungs and cause coughing and eye irritation. Steam cleaners not only help eliminate your chemical allergies, steam also kills the germs, bacteria, mold, and dust mites that can cause other types of allergies.

Sanitize as you clean, get everything in your entire environment chemical and germ free, and enjoy better health.

4. Steam Vapor Leaves No Residue

Steam vapor leaves nothing behind…no residue, no smell, no dirt. No chemicals are applied so there’s nothing to remove. Steam away every trace of the chemical buildup on the surfaces in your home and you will feel the difference. You’ll love the smooth, squeaky-clean way they feel to the touch.

You’ll clean faster and better with no residue or soap, no polishing, and no stripping solvents. Just clean, shiny, sanitized, sparkling surfaces that make you proud of your efforts. Steam cleaning even removes the static properties from dust particles so instead of stirring them up just to have them resettle, you’ll actually capture them in your cloth and really get rid of them.

5. Steam Is An Extremely Effective Way To Clean Any Washable Surface

No matter what you are cleaning, there is nearly always a safe way to clean it with our steam cleaner and our technique. Sargent Steam cleaners have an adjustable flow of vapor so you can use a little or a lot depending on the type of surface you’re cleaning. Turn it up full blast to de-grease your oven and turn it down until it’s safe to clean a live plant. Never before have you had so much versatility and flexibility in one cleaning tool!

6. Water Is The Only Thing Consumable When Cleaning With A Steam Cleaner

The only consumable in a steam cleaner system is water so the value of a steam cleaner goes on indefinitely. Sargent Steam is an investment that will last up to 15 -20 years with nothing else to buy but ordinary tap water. You’ll recoup your purchase price very quickly when you consider what you’ll save on consumable chemicals and cleaning gadgets, carpet and upholstery cleaning, car detailing, window and blind cleaning services, and dry cleaning. From then on your steam cleaner is FREE MONEY! Now, That’s my kind of investment!

7. No Side Effects To Cleaning With Steam, Only Benefits

To my knowledge, steam (unlike many chemicals) has never been linked, even remotely, to any type of birth defect, cancer or adverse psychological conditions! Anyone can use a steam cleaner safely and easily. It’s very user friendly and easy to handle.  Prolonged exposure to steam cleaning may flatten your hairdo or produce a callous on your trigger finger but that’s about the worst you can expect!

8. Steam Helps The Planet By Not Polluting The Water, Air And Landfills

Conservation begins at home…your home. Automatically clean up the planet as you sanitize your whole house. Cleaning with a steam cleaner replaces the need to manufacture, package, ship, use, or dispose of all those harmful and expensive cleaning chemicals and their containers. The wave of the future is in the oldest (and best) cleaning solvent known to mankind…water.

9. Steam Cleaning Offers A Variety Of Uses

The variety of uses are endless…aside from cleaning everything in your kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living room, etc. you can defrost freezers, unclog drains, remove wallpaper, dissolve soap scum, de-grease car engines, deodorize tennis shoes, take a sauna or facial…let your imagination run wild. The very first time you get your hands on a Sargent Steam cleaner you’ll recognize the endless value.

10. Steam Cleaners Are Compact And Space Efficient

Chances are when you get rid of all of your cleaning chemicals you’ll have room under your kitchen sink to store your steam cleaner. Even in tight quarters like apartments, Rv’s and boats, a steam cleaner saves space because it replaces almost every other cleaning tool you need. A steam cleaner and a good vacuum are all you need to clean everything in your entire world.

* Degrease your oven faster than you ever dreamed possible
* Wash windows and screens (in place) in minutes
* Clean your refrigerator quickly without removing the food
* Floors, walls, cabinets, and counter tops are washed, rinsed, dried, and sanitized in one quick step

I am frequently asked why some steamers on the market cost more than others. People want to know if it’s really worth it to pay more money. They’ve seen the inexpensive ones on TV and all over the internet so what’s the big difference? Find out what’s really going on behind the scenes from someone who’s been a pioneer in the steam cleaner industry for 17 years.

Over the last 2 decades I’ve bought products and gathered information from every seller who’s ever marketed a steam cleaner. I have personally seen, owned and used every type of steamer – everything from the “toys” to the “tanks” and the ones in between as they have come and gone. There are several reasons why some endure/perform and others don’t.

Before we go any further, I want to clarify what a true vapor/steam cleaner is and what it is not.

It IS a powerful replacement for the harsh consumable/disposable manual labor intensive chemicals commonly used to clean and disinfect nearly every surface in your home from floors, walls, counter tops, stoves, tubs, windows, toilets, etc.

It IS NOT a hot water/extraction carpet cleaner. Don’t get me wrong, a steam cleaner will do a great job on your carpets but not in the manner you may have used in the past.

A true steam cleaner expels dry steam vapor and most do not provide suction like a vacuum. Instead, the steam loosens the dirt, blasts it out of its hiding place, kills the germs and then all of it – dirt, germs and moisture is picked up in a towel. This may be done in a two-step process (spray and wipe) or cover the attachment with a cloth and make it a one-step process.

Now that we’re on the same page, let’s discuss how to choose a steamer and what to spend on it for your needs.

____________________________________________________________________

The following is a list of features that determine a steamer’s cost.

• Safety features - look for multiple independent mechanisms that assure your safety and that of your machine. Steamers function under pressure and you want piece of mind that yours is safe to use around your kids.
• Boiler tank material – high quality stainless steel is what lasts and it costs more than aluminum or low quality stainless steel. Just because it claims “stainless steel” don’t assume it’s high quality. Cheapy pay – cheapy get is very true here.  Poor quality stainless tanks are actually worse than the aluminum but both are prone to pin holes that leak over time.
• Wiring gauge – heavy duty is what works and lasts and it costs more than thinner wire. There will be considerable electrical current running through your steamer and you’ll want to know its wiring is sufficient.
• Switches - an instantly-on and instantly-off switch on the hose puts you safely in control. High quality multi-setting switches that adjust steam and pressure output (letting you choose high, medium or low) is even better.
• Insulation type and amount - Heavy insulation surrounding the tank helps the water heat faster and keeps the heat in the tank, rather than transferring to the housing (you don’t want to get burned touching the housing)
• Attachments – high quality, well-designed, durable attachments make a HUGE difference. Compare a lower price brand over a higher and even newbies can touch and feel the difference. The quality of the results you get is in the application. Efficiently-designed and well-manufactured brushes mean you get your tasks finished quickly and easily.
• Heating elements – mounted inside the tank work best and last longer. Units with this feature may cost more initially but offer longer lifespan over  those with separate heating elements not protected inside the stainless steel tank.
• Unit size and weight – it should be appropriate to your intended use. Bigger here is NOT always better! A huge machine that is not maneuverable will frustrate the homeowner who wants to take their machine upstairs, downstairs, out to the car or to their daughter’s house. It also may be way too hot and actually melt varnish, not just clean it. On the flip side…a steamer that’s too small will frustrate you to no end with wimpy pressure, wet steam and constant refilling. DO NOT underestimate the power a mid-sized steam cleaner can provide.
• Water capacity – enough to keep you working without adding unmanageable weight. Refilling a unit that only holds a cup of water every 15 minutes will drive you crazy if you’re trying to clean a large house exclusively with steam. A steamer with ½ a gallon water capacity and the ability to refill without waiting for the unit to cool down will keep you working and limit down time.
• Wattage – the amount of electricity provided in wattage determines 2 things…the steam temperature and the amount of pressure. The lower the wattage, the lower the steam temperature and the wetter the steam. Higher wattage (in proportion with tank size) can produce dryer, more effective steam and more pressure. You’ll get your projects done faster.
• Heating capabilities - the hotter the temperature the dryer the steam. On this issue BEWARE! Every seller makes claims as to heat inside the tank verses at the tip and almost no one can prove their numbers. Water boils at 210 degrees and produces steam at that point.  Don’t stress over 290 vs 298 vs 305 degrees. The number you need is at least 210 degrees. Machines that produce a higher temperature will cost more.
• Durability – Is it constructed to last? Housing options are plastic or metal. Plastic does not immediately indicate that it’s not as durable as metal. Metal can be much heavier and if banged into your walls or dropped on your tile can do considerable damage. Both plastic and metal housings can sustain scratches or dents so don’t make your decision on one or the other. It’s not a factor for durability. How the whole unit including the housing, interior, attachments and hoses are made determines durability.
• Engineering – who built it and what do they know about steamers? Have they been engineering and building their own products for a good long time or have they knocked off an expert’s design? Do they produce steam cleaners exclusively or a plethora of unrelated products? Are the “bugs” worked out of their design or are they still testing?

If all these features are top quality, your machine is likely to last 15-20 years and provide a pleasant experience as you use it.  Skimping on any of the features is likely to cause dissatisfaction in the following areas:

• Replacing your unit several times in the same 15-20 year span
• Frustration when you experience diminished performance (wet or weak steam)
• Wasting time as you wait for heat up and cool down
• Buying too small a unit or too big a unit for the application you intend
• Wishing you had tools or accessories that were not included with your unit
• Wishing you didn’t have to figure it all out on your own (couldn’t someone have warned me not to scratch my paint and melt my miniblinds?)
• Loosing time and money in the repair shop
• Getting little value from your investment because you didn’t think to use it in the thousands of ways it will perform

So I’ll ask you what’s most important to you?

• Price
• Quality
• Service
• Education
• Support
• Features

A Sargent Steam machine fits on the high side of the scale in all these areas. A hand-held model fits on the low end of the scale in all these areas. I have yet to find a steamer that offers the lowest price and the highest quality, service, support, features or education.

When buying a steamer make sure the company provides service, education and lots of support because there is a learning curve when you’re new to steaming.

If you buy a machine in a box and have to figure it out alone, your experience will be very different than if you bought from a knowledgeable, helpful, supportive team of people who really know what they’re doing. Buying from someone who knows what you’re going to need (they’ve been where you are) and how to help you get it will actually cost you less over time.
