Defoamer
There are 3 popular ways to use Bubble Buster defoamer...
Option 1: Spray around the inside of tank
Spray or apply (undiluted) directly by trigger or cloth to the sides and bottom of the tank rather than just pouring it into the bottom of the dirty water recovery tank.
Option 2: Suck it up through the vacuum hose
If the vacuum system is sealed, for a fast option you can slowly suck up 1 to 2 cups of diluted defoamer solution into the end of the hose while the vacuum is on.
Option 3: Apply directly to the surface being extracted
For severe cases of residue and foaming, spray diluted defoamer solution directly onto the carpet or hard floor before extraction. You may need to repeat these procedures throughout the cleaning process as your tanks fill and empty to ensure sufficient defoaming action is always present. To avoid any residue being left on the surface and to protect your machinery in the best way possible, always use in the recovery tank not the detergent or clean water solution tank.
Handy hints
- Bubble Buster is most effective when applied over the entire surface that foam will contact.
- Always use Bubble Buster in the dirty water recovery tank of a machine, not the clean water solution tank.
- The rate and frequency of defoamer use may increase if the surface being cleaned contains excessive residues.
