Purpose and Scope
This test method provides a laboratory procedure to clean
textile floor coverings by a technique simulating cleaning of
installed floor coverings by hot water extraction, sometimes
erroneously called "steam cleaning."
This test method may be used to clean a carpet in a manner that
duplicates the most popular (70%) means of actual on-floor cleaning
of carpets.
This test method prepares specimens that can be tested for many
properties; e.g., colorfastness, dimensional stability, permanency
of finishes, ease of cleaning, etc.
