The dry vapor, in the form of gas, penetrates into the surface pores and violently expands, forcing dirt and debris to the surface where the particulate is either suspended in re-condensed water molecules or driven into an absorbent cloth.
The dry vapor is super heated and is hot enough to kill bacteria and sanitize all surfaces.
Vapor cleaning does not rely on pressure in order to clean efficiently. Once the vapor is emitted from the tool head, physics take over and the vapor works on its own. Therefore, only enough vapor is required to fill the pores under the tool head and it is not necessary nor desirable to operate the equipment at full volume.
More effective cleaning results are achieved by turning the volume down and let the vapor and heat do the cleaning. If the equipment is operated at too high of a volume, the unit will not maintain pressure for extended periods of time, it will use too much water and oversaturate the surface that you are cleaning.
