Chemical-Free
Chemical-free cleaning is the
safest way to clean a home. Ladybug Vapor/Steam machines
are perfect for sanitizing tile, floors, grout,
kitchens, bathrooms, pet areas, children's' toys,
work-out rooms or anywhere allergens, mold and mildew
may thrive.
*What is
TANCS?*
Thermal Accelerated Nano Crystal
Sanitation Using a proprietary water treatment process, nanocrystals
are formed within tap water in the steam cleaner. When this
water is transformed into super-heated steam, the crystals
are energized and compromise the function of microbial cell
walls. Microorganisms are then readily exposed to lethal
heat limits - giving you disinfection capability while you
clean!
Nelson Labs
of Utah certified that a 7-second exposure to TANCS steam
vapor produces a 5-7 log reduction in
microbes and was consistently achieved on all microorganisms
tested. This is thousands of times better than any direct
applied water disinfecting process using chemicals.
TANCS:
- Uses ordinary tap water
- Disinfects
- Eliminates and controls biofilms
(microorganisms attached to surfaces)
- Energy-efficient
- Removes chemical residues
- Eliminates steam scaling
- Extended warranty on the steam cleaner to 3
years parts, 8 years on the boiler

Frequently
Asked Questions
What is it?
A vapor system may look like a
vacuum - it is not. It is not the conventional "steam"
cleaner nor is it a pressure washer. It is a new appliance
that uses only a little water and a little electricity to
sanitize, clean and deodorize virtually any surface -
without using chemicals.
How does it
work?
Using less than a gallon of
tap water, this multi-purpose appliance creates a low
moisture vapor that carries heat to the surface you wish to
treat. The heat combined with light agitation does the work
for you. This appliance comes with a variety of accessories
creating a system that can be used on an unlimited number of
applications. The system can be used for carpets as well as
oven cleaning. The process eliminates chemical residues
while sanitizing the surface being treated. Because so
little water is consumed, approximately 1.5 quarts per hour,
it's virtually "mess free". The vapor system is quiet and
portable, allowing for use anytime and anywhere.
What is
"dry" steam vapor?
An oxymoron? Perhaps. This
describes a system that produces a high temperature, low
moisture vapor. The vapor contains only 5% to 6% water and
is much less dense than the air we breathe. Over the past
few years, you have been exposed to products being promoted
as "steam cleaners" that in fact use no steam at all, maybe
warm water on a good day. These so called 'steam machines'
spray on large amounts of water using quantities described
in 'gallons per minute'. You may ask, "Where's the steam?"
The vapor system, by contrast, is equipped to safely produce
thousands of gallons of live dry steam using only about 1.5
quarts of water per hour. This significant difference
relates directly to the versatility and capabilities of the
vapor system. It is unlike anything you have used before. It
is mess free with temperatures hot enough to kill bacteria
and germs, emulsify grease and oil as well as other surface
contaminates. The system is also quiet and portable so it
can be used anywhere at anytime.
What can I
use it on?
The system is practical for
any surface with the exception of those surfaces that are
extremely heat sensitive. Surfaces such as silks, some very
thin plastics, and some types of velour upholstery must be
treated with great care. The system has additional uses
besides sanitation. Defrosting freezers, thawing frozen
pipes, dusting and misting live plants, treating hangovers,
and polishing jewelry are but a few of the non-cleaning
applications. The use of the system in general contributes
directly to better indoor air quality by reducing chemical
residuals and removing airborne particles.
Where do
the chemicals go?
That's a good question. The
Ladybug only uses clean, clear, potable water. No chemical
is used in this system whatsoever.
Where does
the water go?
The water is put into a
special tank or boiler that super heats the water and
changes it into a hot "dry" mist or vapor. Therefore the
name - vapor system.
The unique benefit of this system is that it produces a low
moisture, high temperature vapor that carries only about 6%
(six percent) water. We like to call this a "Dry" Steam
Vapor because so little water is left behind and so little
is used. This patented system gives us the proven power of
heat to safely sanitize and clean while reducing chemical
use. Carpets are dry within minutes. Floors are also dry
within a few minutes. This reduces the time and effort
required for many tasks.
Where does
the soap go?
The system uses only potable
water and heat to sanitize and clean. This reduces the
amounts and residues of "chemical" cleaning. This lowers
your exposure to toxins and helps prevent further
degradation of the environment at the same time. It also
saves us from pouring expensive chemicals down the drain.
Flushing waste down the drain ultimately contributes to the
contamination of our limited fresh water resources and is
costing us more in the form of more expensive sewer
treatment as well.
How much
pressure does the machine produce?
The appliance produces only
low pressures, usually in the range of 50 to 60 PSI. The low
pressure creates a very safe, and easy to use system. Low
pressures are also essential for getting the job done
without making a huge mess. The work is done by the heat
concentrated at the work surface. The heat dissipates
quickly once the vapor expands into the atmosphere. This
system is designed to be used through "surface contact" with
the areas of concern.
Why don't I
just scrub away with soap and a sponge?
Our existing cleaning regimen
consists of applying a chemical or abrasive cleaner, then
wiping or scrubbing the surface until the contaminant
appears to be removed. This method is superficial at best,
requires much physical effort, often degrades the surface,
exposes our skin and lungs to harsh or toxic fumes and
leaves behind chemical residuals which dull and attract dirt
to the finished surface. The vapor system removes surface
contaminants without degrading the surface. The heat
combined with very fine water particles penetrates even the
pores - whatever the surface. This proven process thoroughly
removes contaminants plus leaves the surface free of
residuals. Visually superior results are achieved with less
effort and no exposure to potentially discomforting or
harmful chemical effects. The vapor system also allows you
to sanitize and deodorize areas that are impossible to treat
mechanically or chemically. Why not let the heat do the
work? It's easier and does a better job in less time.
Where does
the dirt go?
Depending on the application,
the dirt loosened by the vapor system is simultaneously
absorbed in a terry cloth bonnet, or rinsed or wiped away
using an absorbent cloth.
How can
this machine help me with my allergies?
The dust mite, which lives in
our clothes, mattresses, carpets and upholstery are often a
cause of allergies around the house. The recommended
treatment for dust mites is to launder the concerned item in
water at a temperature of at least 130° F, or treat the
surface with a tannic acid solution. This may be difficult
to do with carpets, couches and mattresses which probably
are the most highly contaminated. The vapor system comes to
the rescue in this case because it provides you with a
method of penetrating all of these surfaces thoroughly with
temperatures in excess of 180 degrees F. The heat kills the
mites without over wetting the surfaces. Minimal wetting is
important because mites favor a humid environment. Using the
vapor system's fine hot mist prevents this from occurring.
The articles treated are completely dry in a matter of
minutes - not hours. After treating a surface it is
recommended that you vacuum it thoroughly with a HEPA
equipped vacuum to remove any particulate matter. Fleas,
flea eggs and flea larvae are also killed by short term
exposure to high temperature heat carried by very fine vapor
reaching into the pores and pockets of fabric and carpets.
No poisons here to affect children, pets, or indoor air
quality.
I have
chemical sensitivities, how can this help me?
Because this system uses only
water, you are not introducing anything into your
environment that has NEW chemicals or NEW odors which may
affect your wellbeing. Using the system will actually remove
chemical residuals left behind from previous cleaning
procedures as well as remove odors, such as perfumes, from
garments and other fabrics. In addition, using the system
provides you with a means to sanitize many critical surfaces
which are important to your health without using odiferous
toxic germicides. However, if you suffer from chronic and
severe chemical sensitivity, you should have someone else
actually do the work, particularly during the initial
cleanup. Because the system even reaches into the pores of
fabric and hard surfaces, it will drive out contaminates and
chemical residue from those surfaces. This may have an
adverse effect on you until those contaminates are
completely removed. For more information, contact us through
e-mail!
Why haven't
I heard a lot about steam cleaning?
Steam/vapor cleaning systems
like the Ladybug, while having been available in Europe for
several years, is just now being introduced into the North
American market. Because our electrical power supply is
different from the European electrical system, the products
were re-engineered for use here. Safey-minded suppliers have
also taken it upon themselves to be sure that safety
approvals such as Underwriters Laboratory or ETL listings
were in place before introducing them to this market.
Are these
systems being used on a commercial basis?
Yes they are. Many of the
systems are being used in hospitals, retirement care
facilities, the food service industry, hospitality industry,
and government institutions such as schools and
universities. The use of this system improves indoor air
quality, reduces the physical effort involved with cleaning
and provides a more thorough approach to cleaning. Because
the use of chemicals is reduced and because water does not
involve the regulatory requirements that many cleaning
chemicals require, the system requires less management time
and reduces paperwork. For more information or a free
demonstration of this remarkable product, please contact us.
