Definition: Steam cleaning for upholstery uses high-temperature vapor and controlled extraction to remove dirt, bacteria, and allergens from furniture fabrics. It deep-cleans couches, sofas, and chairs without harsh chemicals, leaving upholstery fresh, sanitized, and healthier for families and pets.
