Q. Do steam mops actually work?

Answer

Not only do steam mops work but they are also one of the simplest ways of keeping your home free of germs and viruses. The idea behind a steam mop is that water is heated beyond the boiling point to the extent that steam is generated off the mop fibers or there is a release mechanism that allows for steam to be sprayed on the floor and the mop comes cleaning behind the area. Heat as we all know is the killer of disease and germs. That is why clothes and utensils are disinfected in boiling water and sanitized. In a steam mop there exists a reservoir of water. The heating element brings the water up to about 125 degrees Celsius. There is a steam jet spray mechanism tat either spray the water on the floor or onto the microfibre cloth below. Steam mops are an ideal appliance for your household disinfection needs and ensure a safe living for your family away from germs.
