Have You Tried Handheld Steam Cleaners?

What do you think of when you hear the phrase - 'steam cleaner'? If you are like most people you immediately thought of a large machine that makes a lot of noise but does a great job of cleaning your house. But what if someone gave you a smaller version of this appliance? What if we told you that handheld steam cleaners do a great job and are definitely worth considering? Now, that we have your attention lets see if a hand held steam cleaner is right for you.

Handheld steam cleaners have a couple of advantages. These are:

1) Convenience

This one is fairly obvious. Hauling around a large machine in a big house can be a very tiring. Imagine having to take it down several flights of stairs and then looking for a power outlet to plug into all over the place. Its so much easier to use a handheld version of the same cleaning device. Charge it once and you will be able to clean your entire house without having to plug it in again.

2) Cleaning efficiency

The smaller versions are understandably not as a powerful as the full-size models. But, these mini versions do a decent job. They also continue to produce steam 15 minutes at a shot. It heats up water faster than the larger models too. Find a good brand and look at the specs to ensure that you get the best value for your money.

3) Affordable price

These handheld steam cleaners are a lot cheaper than the bigger models. The larger models are better industrial strength cleaners for regular use in office buildings. They are ideal for areas that get a lot of foot traffic. For most houses, there are few areas that would need to be steam cleaned while the rest of the areas would just need some regular vacuuming.

4) Available accessories

Just because these are smaller models it does not mean that they don't have their own set of accessories. You have quite a few attachments available for these too. You have options for laminated flooring, carpet cleaning and so much more.

Now, that you are more likely to consider handheld steam cleaners lets discuss how to find the best deal. As a smart shopper, you are already starting your research online. We suggest price comparison engines like pricegrabber.com, Google product search, bizrate.com etc. to get an idea of the price range. After that check out amazon.com and consumer reports for user reviews. Look at both the good and the bad reviews.

How do you plug a pool vacuum cleaner in?

So I understand you put the vacuum bit in the pool... But where does the hose bit plug in?
How do you plug it into the scimmer and how do you turn it on?

It plugs into the skimmer.
Roll your vacuum hose straight along the length of the pool. Attach one of the cuffed ends onto your vacuum head which is attached to your telescopic pole. Extend the pole and place the head (with the hose attached) into the water so that it rests on the floor of the pool. Point the head across the pool so that it doesn't roll down the slope towards the deep end and prop the pole up against the pool's edge.

From the point where the hose surfaces, begin pushing the hose straight down into the water, hand over hand, until you reach the other end. This is filling the hose up with water so there is no air in it which may cause difficulties for the pump when you attach the hose to the skimmer. Another method of "priming the hose" is to hold the cuffed end firmly over a return fitting to force the air out of the end attached to the vacuum head.

Once the hose is primed, remove the skimmer lid and the basket and stick the hose end into the hole at the bottom of the skimmer. If it sucks it in tightly, great. If not, you may need a threaded hose adapter to achieve a tight fit. Now turn your pool filter pump on. The suction that was at the hole at the bottom of your skimmer is now at the vacuum head. Do not lift the head out of the water with the hose attached, or you will fill the hose with air, losing prime, and possibly drawing air into the pump.
