CFR Technology Explained: Water Atomization

Eliminating Heavy Droplets

CFR is a method of Hot Water Extraction that uses a moisture-controlled “continuous flow recycling” technology that is unique to the industry. This moisture controlled technology controls over spray by containing the spray in the nozzle head and more importantly, by atomizing it.

What is Water Atomization?

Atomization is the breakdown of fluid into tiny droplets, which can create as much as 10 times the surface area of water compared to traditional extractors. Our patented technology essentially "fogs" the carpet or fiber with a heavy, consistent mist, without over-wetting or saturating the fiber. Because it's a fine, atomized heavy mist, we're able to move between and through the fibers much more effectively than larger droplets.

"Excessive droplet size can have an adverse effect on extraction, including ineffective cleaning and over-wetting."

— Michael Schaffer

CFR's patented moisture controlled technology leaves less moisture in the carpet, allowing for much quicker drying times than a traditional extractor and greater recovery of dirty water/solution. The recycling process dramatically decreases the number of times required to dump and refill the tanks, resulting in less water usage and more dollars saved.
