Designed for use without chemicals, the steam cleaning los angeles likes water and nothing else. The main problem consists in preventing and absorbing the formation of tartar, namely lime which is deposited on the walls of elements in contact with water (boiler, tank, pipe, accessories). The water used should therefore not be neglected. That of the tap is recommended. That said, too hard water will promote tartar. Refer to the instructions, which specifies the hardness (hydrotimetric title, ie calcium and magnesium concentration) suitable for your equipment. This information can sometimes be verified on the water bill, or with municipal services. If the drinking water in your home is too hard, you can cut it with demineralized water. But beware, manufacturers advise against using it exclusively and recommend a dosage of 50% of the total amount. Too soft water can be corrosive and damage the device. Also avoid rainwater and water collected via a condensation dryer. Both may contain particles or detergent residue. To avoid lime deposits on the boiler, empty and rinse the tank after each use. Like the accessories, it can be washed under running water, without adding any cleaning product. Some brands offer the addition of an anti-limescale in water: do it only if it is notified in the instructions for use, so as not to damage the cleaner.
Some models have built-in systems. Others suggest adding a cartridge, which means changing it regularly, knowing that the unit can cost more than € 10. At the rate of two, three, or even four changes per year, the budget increases quickly! Especially since certain references will not be available commercially throughout the life of the device (including private labels and unbranded products). SAFETY: BEWARE OF THE RISK OF BURNS The main source of danger for a steam cleaning los angeles: water heated to a minimum of 100 ° C, boiling temperature. The risk of burns is high. Precautions are necessary during and after handling the device. The tank should never be opened during use. The steam from it can burn you. Unplug it and wait for it to cool before putting water back in. For cleaners with unlimited autonomy, the risk is less because the tank is far from the boiler. However, switch off the cleaner before filling or cleaning the tank. Contact of very hot steam with the skin can also burn you. Never turn the hose toward you while it is running. Some models have a security lock that must be disarmed to let the steam out, this prevents the device from triggering on its own due to a wrong gesture or manipulation by a child. If you notice visible damage or a leak, stop using the steam cleaner. Take it to the store to have it examined and repaired if necessary. Keep the cleaner out of the reach of children. Do not leave it unattended if it is on. THE RELIABILITY OF STEAM CLEANERS The life of a steam cleaning los angeles varies. Our test simulates use for 5 years at the rate of one hour per week for sleds and 3 years with the same frequency for brooms. The aim is to detect potential failures, in particular scaling, the main cause of failure. Refer to our results for the most enduring steam cleaners . In the event of a fault, contact the manufacturer's service center or the dealer. If he has the right part, he can change it. If the 2 year warranty is over, do the math: a repair may cost more than a replacement. You will sometimes be advised in the instructions to use only original spare parts. We do not recommend the purchase of a second-hand steam cleaner, because it is impossible to know whether it has been descaled regularly and therefore to gauge the contamination, but also the wear, of the hidden parts.
