This can be done from a truck-mounted unit outside the home with only the hose and wand brought inside or by a portable system brought into the home.”
“Shaw warranties require that the homeowner be able to show proof of periodic cleaning by hot water extraction (commonly called “steam” cleaning) by a professional cleaning service…”
