The secret of steam cleaning is based on a simple principle: the powerful combination of pressure, speed and temperature. Microscopic small steam particles penetrate with a powerful pressure of 4-8 bar even the smallest pores and eliminate effectively stubborn dirt, even there where no scrubber can reach.

The Kärcher Steam Vacuum Cleaners SGV 6/5 and SGV 8/5 top the traditional steam cleaning function of the SG 4/4 steam cleaner with an additional vacuum function and therefore unite the functions of two machines: steam cleaner and wet/dry vacuum cleaner. The user is able to steam and vacuum the condensed water simultaneously in one step.

See for yourself some examples for the use of steam cleaners or steam vacuums.
