A steam mop is a modern household multifunctional appliance that looks only vaguely reminiscent of its ancestor - an ordinary mop for mopping. Cleaning with a steam mop is different than regular floor cleaning.
What is a steam mop
The principle of the steam cleaner is at the heart of the steam mop. Water is poured into a tank in which it is heated to a boiling point and turns into steam, then through the holes at the bottom of the nozzle the steam is pushed out and provides high-quality and quick cleaning of almost any surface, while eliminating an unpleasant odor and disinfecting.
Structurally, the steam squeegee is a rotating triangular or rectangular base with holes for the exit of steam. The base is mounted on a long or height-adjustable handle. There is also a water tank on the handle. The reservoir for convenience is not very large and usually holds up to 500 grams of water. The steam mop is powered by 220 volts and consumes up to 5 kW / h. The whole device has a mass of about 3 kg.
The rotating base facilitates cleaning, allowing entry into remote and inaccessible places. Long adjustable handle makes cleaning more comfortable. The presence of several nozzles in the kit allows you to only get to the most inaccessible places when cleaning, but also provides high-quality and safe cleaning of almost any floor covering as quickly as possible and with minimal time costs.
