i was told that steam cleaning a runner that has a desperate odor will actually motivation that odor to remain in the hearth rug forever. the reason i ask is i plan on renting a house beside a buddy of mine and the carpet contained by the house smells of urine, previous owner had approaching 4 dogs and 6 cats. smells bad but it is still tolerable. the renter told us if we paint and steam verbs the carpets our first month is free. sounds well brought-up to me. but will steam cleaning the carpet near my bissel steam cleaner cause the odor to be "baked" into the hearth rug for ever. or would it be better to buy the stuff you sprinkle on and then purely vacum a couple of times?

If you use individual ammonia in your steam cleaner instead of soap, you will most predictable get rid of the smell of urine. Animal urine is highly difficult to deal near and get rid of.

If you can't afford it, get that marine as hot as possible and use ammonia...Hope this helps and well brought-up luck!
