Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the SC 1 Upright and the SC 2 Upright?

The SC 1 is designed to be ultra-lightweight (2.07kg) and features a smaller 0.2L water tank and 1300W heater, making it perfect for quick spot-cleaning in small apartments. The SC 2 is slightly larger (2.5kg), has a bigger 0.4L tank, a 1600W heater, and features preset 'Wood/Tile' steam control buttons.

Does this actually kill bacteria without bleach?

Absolutely. The SC 1 generates superheated steam. When applied closely to a hard surface, the extreme thermal heat physically destroys the cell walls of 99.99% of common household bacteria and 99.999% of enveloped viruses, providing clinical sanitization.

Is it safe to use on polished timber or laminate floors?

You must be very careful. Superheated steam and moisture can penetrate the seams of cheap laminate or unsealed timber, causing the boards to warp and swell. It is highly recommended to keep the mop moving continuously on timber and never let it sit in one spot.

Can I use this to clean my carpets?

The SC 1 Upright is strictly engineered for 'Hard Surfaces'. It does NOT extract water and is not a carpet shampoo machine. If you attempt to use it on carpet, it will just make the top of the fibers hot and slightly damp.

What does 'Self-Standing' mean?

Unlike traditional stick vacuums or mops that fall over the second you let go of them, the SC 1 Upright is engineered to click into a vertical, locked position. It will stand completely upright on its own, allowing you to move chairs out of the way safely.

Do I need to put cleaning chemicals in the water tank?

Absolutely NOT. You must ONLY put pure, clean tap water into the tank. Adding toxic floor cleaners, bleach, or essential oils into the heater will boil the chemicals, creating highly dangerous toxic gas and instantly destroying the machine.

What does the 'Descaling Cartridge' do?

If you live in an area with 'hard water', boiling water creates limescale inside the machine which will eventually destroy the heater. The built-in descaling cartridge automatically filters the calcium out of the tap water before it boils, vastly extending the machine's life.

How do I remove the dirty floor cloth without touching it?

The EasyFix floor nozzle uses a Velcro system. The microfibre cloth has a small fabric tag sticking out. You simply step on the tag with your shoe and pull the mop handle up. The filthy cloth peels off instantly without you ever having to touch it.

Can I wash the microfibre cloths?

Yes. Once the microfibre pad is completely saturated with dirt, you peel it off and wash it in a standard washing machine at 60ºC. Do NOT use fabric softener, as it ruins the microfibre's ability to absorb dirt.

How long does it take to heat up?

Thanks to the highly efficient 1300W heating element and advanced flash-heating design, the SC 1 Upright reaches full operating temperature and is ready to blast superheated steam in an astonishing 30 seconds.

Is 0.2 Litres enough water to mop my floor?

0.2L of water expands massively into steam, covering roughly 30 square meters. Because the tank is removable and 'continuously refillable', if you run out, you don't have to wait for the machine to cool down—just pull the tank off, fill it at the sink, and keep going instantly.

Do you offer trade pricing for commercial cleaners?

Yes, Freshway Supplies provides highly competitive volume pricing and trade accounts for commercial cleaning contractors, hotel housekeeping teams, and facility managers ordering bulk steam cleaning equipment. Contact us to establish your account.
