Full steam ahead
December 1st 2003 Denis Rawlins has recently expanded its range of steam cleaning machines to eight so that customers will be able to find the machine that suits them best. For those unsure about which machine is best for them, a member of the team will visit the customer and provide a free consultation and demonstration on the customers own premises to ensure that the right machine for the job is recommended.
Schools, restaurants, hospitals and nursing homes have all benefited from the scheme which is an attempt to eliminate the confusion from the decision making process customers go through when selecting a steam machine. Instead of simply selling to a customer and then distancing themselves, staff at Denis Rawlins will ensure the customer is completely satisfied with their selection and that they are happy it will do the job it is meant for.
Versatility is a major benefit of steam over other cleaning methods. Floors, furniture, windows, mirrors, toilets and sinks are found in almost every establishment. With very little effort, steam will thoroughly sterilise and sanitise areas such as these. Areas that normally prove to be time consuming and costly when dealing with. Less chemical and water usage not only looks after the environment but is also considerably more cost effective.
Schools and nurseries benefit from steam due to the fact that it will kill bacteria and germs without the need for harmful chemicals. Toys, play areas, gym and sports equipment can all be thoroughly cleaned. Hospitals and residential homes will benefit from being able to sanitise and sterilise stainless steel and equipment. Steam will also eliminate odours and dust mites in patients beds. Food preparation areas will benefit from steams power to dissolve grease and grime from ovens, stoves, tiles and work surfaces. Freezers and refrigerators can be sterilised and defrosted. Cooker hoods, vents and fixtures will all be free from bacteria and viruses which all acts to prevent the risk of food contamination. Using no chemicals will mean that food can be prepared as soon as cleaning is finished without the need for an additional wash down with water. Other areas that steam can tackle include graffiti and chewing gum removal as well as the cleaning of vehicles and machinery for effective removal of grease and oil. The applications are endless.
The range of steam machines carried at Denis Rawlins starts with the DR 36, a simple 1.5 litre steamer, suitable for those wanting to spot-steam as and when necessary and goes right through to the DR 95, a heavy duty continuous steamer with vacuum function designed to withstand the rigours of heavy industrial use. In between these two machines are steamers with varying attributes that will suit the differing needs that different customers possess.
The most popular machine in the range is the DR 75 steam cleaner and vacuum. The machine has a list price of 695, which makes it great value considering the amount of features it possesses and the wide range of applications it can be used for. The machine combines continuous steam cleaning and detergent spraying functions. The operator only has to choose the most effective function for the particular job at hand. You can choose from cleaning with steam only, water only, steam and water, or steam and detergent. With its vacuum function the DR 75 will suck up all of the residue generated as the steam cuts through and lifts grease, grime and dirt effortlessly. Cleaning and drying tasks can be performed independently or simultaneously and the suction can be varied by the use of a clever dial to ensure that the correct amount of steam and suction are being used for the particular job in hand.
In addition to this, the DR 75 has a dry blow feature, whereby you can plug the hose into the rear of the machine and use it to blow dirt from hard to reach areas to where it can be collected afterwards, for example when removing dirt from behind radiators. The tool trolley is an optional extra to aid manoeuvrability during cleaning and to transport the supplied tools with the machine. Tools for cleaning upholstery, floors, carpets, windows and grills are included as well as tools for more delicate or awkward areas.
