  Using Polti Vaporetto to clean your home if you have dust mite allergies is an investment in health, as science supports it.

  The acaricidal efficacy of the Polti Vaporetto steam cleaner is proven by numerous scientific studies:

  On handheld steam cleaners and those with a removable tank, the model sticker can be found behind the tank.

• How Long Does Steam Cleaning Take and How Effective Is It?

  Steam cleaning is one of the most efficient methods and is very quick. 

  With Polti Vaporetto, the cleanliness lasts longer because cleaned, degreased, and sanitized surfaces do not attract dust or new dirt as easily as with other cleaning systems.

  Moreover, with just one product, you dissolve and pick up dirt easily, reaching all areas, without the need for toxic cleaning products or countless tools. This simplifies household chores and saves you time and space, as no conventional cleaning products (detergents, cloths, mop, bucket, dustpan, duster...) are needed, and it also eliminates the time required for cleaning and organizing these items (washing, rinsing, drying, storing...).

  Another advantage is that it saves you effort, as the power of steam easily dissolves dirt without the need for scrubbing.

• What Is a Safety Cap? Does the Polti Safety Cap Have Anything Special?

  The safety cap prevents unwanted accidents with the appliance's boiler, as it contains hot water under pressure, which could cause serious issues without proper safety measures.

  The Polti safety cap does not open if there is still pressure inside the boiler, even when the appliance is turned off. Along with an independent mechanical valve, it ensures maximum safety and reliability against any possibility of unexpected opening.

• The Iron on My Polti Vaporella Has Holes in the Tip of the Soleplate. What Are They For?

  The Polti Vaporella models with a boiler iron clothes with the steam pressure generated by the boiler. This steam is powerful and dry, and with the pressure coming through the aluminum soleplate, wrinkles are smoothed out. 

  The higher-end models of the Polti Vaporella have holes concentrated at the front of the soleplate, at the tip, so that the steam exits more concentrated and powerful, allowing it to quickly penetrate the fabrics being ironed, eliminating wrinkles swiftly and effortlessly. The rest of the soleplate is smooth to set the ironing and dry the fabric. This means that the Polti Vaporella irons with these features achieve excellent results with just one pass, saving time and energy.
