Zr Water™ is water that has been softened and electrolyzed with our patented EO Water System. Zr Water™ cleans like soap and eliminates most harmful substances instantly - without harmful chemical additives. The benefit of using this process is that no sticky soap residue is left behind to continue collecting soil after the cleaning. In short, carpets stay cleaner longer and tend to dry faster. Only Zerorez® has the exclusive patented rights to clean with this technology in the carpet cleaning industry!

Yes, our hot water extraction cleaning process does leave moisture in the carpet. Typical dry time is anywhere between 6 and 24 hours, depending on the season, airflow in the home, condition and style of carpet being cleaned. It's important to turn on your A/C and fans during and after the service to reduce dry time. It is completely safe to walk on the carpet as long as you're comfortable with the cleanliness of your feet.

Zerorez® understands accidents happen, causing odor and discoloration in your floors. If not properly treated, biological matter such as urine can create a breeding ground for bacteria and an unhealthy environment.

We offer several treatment methods to clean and refresh areas contaminated by biological matter. All of these services do incur additional costs and will be assessed onsite by the technician:

Level I Basic Bio Treatment:
We use this method to treat areas that have mild to moderate biological contamination contained in the surface area of the flooring or fibers.

Level II Advanced Bio Treatment: This is a deep saturation and extraction process used to treat moderate to severe biological issues that have spread into the carpet backing and/or carpet pad.

Level III Replacement: The nature of biological issues makes it impossible to guarantee treatment without replacement. Using this method, tack strips, padding and carpeting are replaced. We have partnered with Mohawk and Shaw and can offer very competitive rates and installation with our zFloors flooring division.

There is a charge for the above services. Our service technician must assess the issues onsite in order to determine the best treatment and price.

CAN I DECLINE A PET SERVICE IF IT’S RECOMMENDED BY A TECHNICIAN?

Carpet manufactures recommend your carpet to be professionally cleaned every 12-18 months with a hot water extraction process. This will vary however depending on the usage your carpet gets. Factors include number of people, pets, outdoor environment and how well carpet is maintained between cleanings. We advise you check the warranty information on your carpet. Most carpet manufactures require you have your carpets professionally cleaned every 12-18 months in order to keep the warranty valid on your carpet.

This is especially noticed on light colored carpet. This soiling is called filtration soiling because it comes from air passing through the carpet as it is attempting to get through the space between the carpet and the baseboard or closed door. This occurs over a significant period of time and is not noticed until a build-up has occurred.

This type of soiling is difficult to remove because the soil particles are so fine that they penetrate deep into the carpet pile and often into the backing of the carpet. With special effort, reasonable results can sometimes be achieved. To help prevent filtration soiling, vacuum and wipe the edges of the carpet on a regular basis.
