Professional home cleaning mops

All types of mops are divided into two large groups - for household use and professional equipment. Household models are characterized by a small number of functions and a simple design: such tools are optimal for rooms with simple floors, which are not afraid of moisture. Surfaces that need careful handling are best cleaned with a professional tool.

The very first mops were a set of a pair of sticks with rags. However, progress does not stand still, and today, floor cleaners have become a professional tool with their own technical specifics. Such mops are required by professional cleaning specialists just as much as technical automated equipment.

At first glance, it is difficult to figure out what is the difference between a professional floor cleaning tool and equipment intended for home use. External differences are minimal, and they both look the same. The main difference lies in accuracy and functionality. Professional mops are used for the treatment of high-value floor coverings, for which precise adherence to the maintenance conditions is essential. That is why such a tool should have several options for attachments and additional functions to achieve maximum cleaning and simplify the work of the cleaner.

In recent years, standard mops on the cleaning market have been replaced by buckets for cleaning and washing the floor.They are called harvest carts. They allow you to optimize and speed up the work of the cleaning personnel, make their working conditions easier.

The design of cleaning buckets is simple and functional - it is a rectangular reservoir with rounded corners. Swivel wheels are attached to the corner areas of the plastic base. They allow you to give the tool an optimum degree of maneuverability. Wheels can vary in diameter, and the larger this size, the easier the cart will be to cope with thresholds, steps and other obstacles. The trolley easily slides on all types of surfaces, so moving the buckets is not difficult even for physically weakened people.

These buckets are made from safe materials that do not contain toxic substances. They have an ergonomic look and a customized remote spin system. The reservoir can differ in the number of compartments.

The volume of the tanks also differs. Buckets of 20 and 32 liters can be found on sale, therefore, depending on the size of the room for cleaning, you can always choose the optimal volume. The most advanced tools have a storage compartment for the mop attachments. Some products are equipped with a tap for draining the liquid - this makes it easy to replace the water as it becomes dirty.

The cleaning bucket ensures quick and easy floor cleaning, even in the largest rooms. It is mobile, stable and easy to use and does not need to be lifted. Thus, the load on the joints and the spine of the worker is greatly reduced. Such equipment is used wherever a cleaning trolley can technically go. Cleaning buckets are widely used for cleaning:

• shopping and entertainment centers;
• gas stations;
• catering establishments;
• educational and medical institutions;
• hotels.

However, traditional mops are still holding their ground. Flounder mops are often used in cleaning - this is the most functional professional model. Visually, it resembles an ordinary mop, but a flat element is attached to its handle, and washing surfaces are fixed to it. This design is very mobile. It allows you to effectively clean stairs, as well as walls and ceilings. Spinning is done by simply pressing the pedal.

The butterfly mop also belongs to the group of professional mops. It has a telescopic handle and a sponge nozzle. Such models clean multi-level surfaces well, clean carpets, effectively cope with all types of dirt and animal hair.

Cleaning mops are available in a wide variety of materials. The choice should be made taking into account the characteristics of cleaning - it can be dry or wet. In the first case, the tools must have an aluminum frame, this material significantly increases the efficiency of dust collection and facilitates cleaning in general. However, the material is not suitable for wet cleaning, since it will not firmly press the MOP to the floor and will not hold pressure over the entire surface.

Particular attention should be paid to the base material. The fact is that cleaning specialists have to deal with large areas of dirty and poorly cleaned surfaces every day, such as cement tiles, concrete and all kinds of abrasive coatings. For them, the material of the mop head is not so important, since any expensive rag, even microfiber, will very quickly become unusable.

The ranking of the best professional mops includes several models.

The attachment is represented by a microfiber mop. The material has high absorbency, but when processing rough surfaces it wears out quickly - such a mop is best used for cleaning shopping malls, offices, medical institutions and other premises where the flooring is even and smooth.

The water container has a capacity of 750 ml, so a rather large surface can be cleaned. In this case, it is impossible to spill liquid from the mop, even if the tool is turned upside down. The only drawback is that caustic chemicals cannot be added to the water - they can corrode the material from which the fluid compartment is made.

When buying a mop, first of all, you need to take into account the material from which the base to be cleaned is made.

In this case, preference should be given to static holders with clips, rubber attachments or microfiber covers are attached to them.

If you are going to use a professional mop not only for cleaning the floor, but also for cleaning the ceiling and walls, then when unfolded, the length of the handle should correspond to the height of the room.This type of cleaning will require a variety of attachments and should be as light as possible, as the cleaner will have to hold the tool in front of him, often with his hands up.

Cotton, microfiber, or a combination of these materials are optimal for smooth floor coverings. Abrasive surfaces work well with synthetic brushes.
