Quickly remove both dirt and pathogens

Steam is commonly used in environments with heightened hygienic requirements because it cleans both quickly and thoroughly. A report from the Department of Health found that steam not only removes soil effectively, but also “completely removes selected test microorganisms (MRSA, Acinetobacter, Klebsiella, and Clostridium difficile spores) and completely disinfects the cleaned surface.” The same researchers also looked into concerns about contaminants becoming aerosolized and traveling through the air. Their results found “no evidence of dispersion of viable organisms.”
