The product in detail
Red Carpet Liquid Defoamer reduces foam in the hoses and recovery tanks of compatible extractors. The Canadian catalogue describes a blend of foam-reducing agents without added fragrance. It supports recovery when foam results from cleaning residue or extraction.
Reduces foam in the suction circuit and tank. The approved extraction solution does the fibre cleaning.

Surfaces and compatibility
For a compatible extractor recovery circuit when foam interferes with suction. The correct addition point depends on the product and machine.
The catalogue ratio alone does not specify the hose or tank addition procedure. Current product and extractor instructions determine how it is used.
Preparation and use
Check the label and extractor manual for where to add it in the recovery system.
- Stop to check foam level and the recovery tank.
- Read the dosing and addition point on the label and in the extractor manual.
- Add only at the specified location; do not assume it belongs in the clean-water tank.
- Resume while monitoring foam; check for shampoo residue in the carpet.
- Empty and clean the system according to the machine procedure.
Follow the supplied reference’s label and SDS, plus flooring and machine instructions. Do not mix products. The method guidance below complements manuals and does not set a dilution or contact time missing from them.
Care and storage
Rapid foam recurrence calls for checking cleaner dose, previous treatment residue and circuit condition. Defoamer supports recovery management; it does not replace maintenance.
Limits and things to check
This product controls foam; it is not the detergent that cleans fibres. Do not exceed the dose or use it as a spot cleaner.
Equipment, accessories and options
Plan for precise dosing and follow the machine-specific addition point.
