FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

What is nora pro steamer?

nora pro steamer is a steam cleaning machine used to maintain nora® flooring where other cleaning equipment cannot be used efficiently for daily cleaning i.e. patient rooms, bathrooms, outside of shower areas, ICU or NICU. Steam cleaning is a deep cleaning process that combines the use of distilled water and a steam mopping system to remove dirt and grime from nora flooring surfaces.

Why do you have to use distilled water verses regular tap water in the machine?

Typically minerals and ions found in tap water can be corrosive to the heating element in the steam machine. Distilled water is water that has had many of its impurities removed through distillation. Distillation involves boiling the water and then condensing the steam into a clean container.

Does it kill bacteria and pathogens?

Yes. Steam cleaners will allow you to sterilize a wide range of materials. Temperature, pressure, and time are the main factors of this process. The higher the temperature, the greater the pressure, shortens the sterilization cycle. nora systems, Inc. does not claim to kill bacteria and pathogens with the use of the nora pro steamer. The nora pro steamer provides a very effective method to clean the floor without the use of cleaning chemicals which can leave a chemical residue.

How hot is the steam generated with the nora pro steamer?
