CRB Cleaning | TM3 12” Cleaning Machine | Low Moisture/Dry Carpet and Hard Floor

The TM3-C is a Counter Rotating Brush machine designed to provide low-moisture carpet cleaning for residential and commercial settings. The TM3-C is 15 inches wide and is our most popular and budget-friendly option. It is perfect for carpet cleaning businesses and start-ups who focus primarily on residential and small commercial cleanings.  The TM3-C can be used as part of encapsulation cleaning. The counter rotating motion of the TM3-C lifts carpet pile and allows for your cleaning solution to be worked deep into the carpet fibers. This results in a deep clean that is fast-drying, thorough, and complete. The TM3-C comes standard with blue brushes which are perfect for most residential and commercial applications. Other Brushes to consider include: Yellow (Extra-Stiff) Brush: Best for severely matted commercial grade low loop pile carpets. For "one-time" restorative cleans. Not for regular use. Green (Stiff) Brush: Best for commercial synthetic loop pile, vinyl, tile and grout. Best for rough and rigid floors and surfaces. Gray (Soft) Brush: Best for residential synthetic fiber cut pile or commercial wool loop pile carpets. White (Extra-Soft) Brush: Best for soft and delicate carpets. Benefits for Your Business Enhanced Cleaning: A CRB Machine provides a deep clean and requires less time than using a traditional extractor. Prevention of Re-Soiling: Encapsulation leaves behind a residue that repels dirt and keeps carpets cleaner for longer. Gentler Cleaning: Encapsulation uses low-moisture and dry cleaning techniques, which are gentler on carpets and less likely to result in mold, mildew, and shrinkage. Reduced Drying Time: Encapsulation cleaning dries faster than traditional methods, minimizing time spent per the job. Expanded Service Offerings: Adding encapsulation cleaning attracts new customers and increases revenue opportunities. Enhanced Customer Satisfaction: Customers prefer the deeper clean, faster drying, and prevention of re-soiling with encapsulation cleaning. Environmental Benefits: Encapsulation cleaning typically requires less water and chemical usage compared to traditional methods.

Use protective measures to safeguard walls, baseboards, and other surfaces from potential splashes or overspray. Vacuum the carpet to eliminate loose dirt, dust, pet hair, and other debris from the surface and carpet fibers.  Pre-Vacuuming allows for the encapsulation solution to better target the deep embedded soil and tough stains in a carpet without interference from surface contaminants. STEP 2: Encapsulation Once the carpet has been prepped by vacuuming, apply the encapsulation solution with a pump-up sprayer. Distribute the solution evenly so that it can be absorbed into the carpet pile. For tough stains, it may be necessary to pretreat the area with a specialized stain remover before encapsulating. STEP 3: Agitation with CRB Machine Once the encapsulation solution has been applied, use your CRB machine to agitate the solution. Agitation allows for the encapsulation solution to penetrate the carpet fibers, allowing for it to work on deeply held dirt and soil. The mechanical action of the CRB machine also helps to lift and rejuvenates the carpet pile, resulting in a cleaner and fresher appearance. STEP 4: Drying After the encapsulation solution has been agitated into the carpet fibers, it begins to dry. During the drying process, the encapsulation agents in the solution form crystals or polymers around the soil particles, helping to separate the soil from the carpet fibers. This encapsulation process helps prevent the soil from reattaching to the carpet fibers and keeps it suspended for easy removal during the subsequent vacuuming step. Using fans and dryers can help speed up the drying process. STEP 5: Vacuuming Once the encapsulation solution has dried, it will have formed crystals around the soil particles.  A thorough vacuuming removes the encapsulated soil particles from the carpet, leaving behind a clean and refreshed surface. The vacuuming process should be done using a high-quality vacuum cleaner equipped with appropriate attachments for carpet cleaning. Some encapsulation solution is naturally left behind in the carpet carpet fibers, making the carpet more soil resistant in the future.
