EverClean Nashville | Carpet Clean Methods
There are a few carpet cleaning methods we offer including steam cleaning, low moisture, and our advanced SaniVive® method. Regardless of which method you choose, carpet manufacturers recommend having carpet cleaned for health reasons first and appearance second. This is because your carpet is a filter that accumulates sticky soils your vacuum cleaner cannot remove. These sticky soils include airborne cooking oils, soap residue, skin oils and pet dander.
SaniVive® – Our Preferred Method

SaniVive® is our exclusive method that cleans your carpet twice, both wet and dry, for deep clean, fast-dry results. Along with our oxygen-based, soap-free cleaning solution, your carpet is thoroughly clean, dries in half the time, and eliminates the possibility of carpet mold by keeping the absorbent pad below your carpet dry.
By combining steam cleaning with low moisture cleaning, SaniVive® eliminates the liabilities of both methods: Steam (over-wetting), Low Moisture (insufficient soil removal). SaniVive® is a holistic approach that delivers the safest and cleanest results possible. Learn more about the SaniVive® method.

Steam Cleaning Method

Officially known as Hot Water Extraction, steam cleaning is a method that injects hot water into your carpet while simultaneously extracting it out with the soils. Our steam cleaning service offers quality, thorough result. Plus, you can customize the service for stain removal, pet urine treatment and deep cleaning.
Steam cleaning is a great method, but should be used with caution. With so many uncertified companies offering this service, it can lead to a toxic environment. Learn more about the consequences of steam cleaning on our carpet mold page

Low Moisture Cleaning Method
With only a two hour dry time, the very low moisture method (VLM) loosens the soils using our exclusive soap-free, nontoxic cleaning solution. The VLM method involves applying soap-free solution, then absorbing the soils into dry, absorbent pads with orbital machines. Any remaining soils become encapsulated by our cleaning solution, which is then vacuumed out with subsequent customer vacuuming. VLM is great option for interim cleaning, or for those who want their carpet to dry within an hour or two.
Low Moisture Method Advantages
- Fast, two hour dry time
- Soap-free, non-toxic cleaner keeps fibers cleaner, longer
