Patented Thermal!Heat Transfer System
Hygiene begins where dirt doesn't stand a chance. Our patented technology guarantees a consistently high temperature of the steam from the device directly onto the floor coverings. Without detours, without temperature losses. The power of steam not only removes stubborn dirt, but also eliminates viruses. The result is a home where well-being and uncompromising cleanliness come first.
Long!Life Technology
The intelligent descaling cartridge automatically removes limescale from the water, dramatically extending the lifetime of the device. Without a descaling cartridge, lime builds up on the pipes in the device over time, reducing the steam output. However, by regularly replacing the descaling cartridge, our pipes remain free of limescale in the long term and the lifetime of the device is increased up to tenfold. The removable tank is easy to fill at any time – for continuous steam without interrupting your work.
Hygienic!Steam Technology
Uncompromising hygiene and fibre-deep cleanliness can only be achieved with the natural power of water. Without any chemical additives, the hot steam ensures a safe environment and eliminates up to 99.999%1) of enveloped viruses and 99.999%2) of common household bacteria on hard surfaces. The high temperature and intense steam production achieve a cleaning performance that far exceeds conventional manual methods using detergents. This is how pure tap water becomes the most effective solution for sparkling cleanliness.
Powerful!Steam System Clean
The device can clean itself quickly and conveniently from the inside using the self-cleaning mode. The steam eliminates viruses and bacteria in the device and on the roller, thereby also preventing unpleasant odours. This ensures that you have a long-lasting and hygienic device.
Maximum power thanks to cable
Hot steam is the key to perfect cleaning results and the reliable elimination of bacteria and viruses. However, the continuous generation of this hot steam requires an enormous amount of energy. A battery is simply not capable of providing the required heating power of 1600 watts. That is precisely why the SCV 4 Steam Vac is deliberately designed for reliable mains operation. A generous cable with a length of eight meters offers you ample freedom of movement for any room. This ensures you maintain full performance without annoying charging interruptions and can clean your home completely uncompromisingly in a single pass.
