Remember, it is not our purpose to downgrade other methods of cleaning, but to thoroughly discuss how the dry extraction system works and how it compares to other methods. We developed the dry system of cleaning in 1938 and understand it better than anyone else.

How Does HOST® Work?

HOST Dry Carpet Cleaner Dissolves and Traps Dirt. HOST Dry Carpet Cleaner is all natural and contains a balanced blend of moisture, detergent and a small amount of safe-to-use solvents. HOST dissolves and traps greasy, oily dirt, spots and odors as it is brushed into the carpet. To remove, wait for about an hour and simply vacuum. Because HOST is a low-moisture cleaner, carpet can be walked on during cleaning and is ready for use immediately after cleaning.
