Commercial Steam Cleaners Perth — Dry Vapour Cleaning for Business

WACER stocks Perth’s most comprehensive range of commercial steam cleaners — dry vapour machines built for the hygiene demands of hospitals, hotels, restaurants, aged care facilities, schools, and professional cleaning contractors across WA. From compact 7-bar light commercial units through to heavy-duty 9-bar industrial steam and vacuum machines with continuous operation, WACER has a steam cleaner for every commercial application and budget.

Commercial steam cleaning uses high-temperature dry vapour — steam with less than 5% moisture content — to penetrate surfaces, break down grease, grime, bacteria, and allergens at a microscopic level without the need for harsh chemical detergents. The result is a deeper, more hygienic clean that leaves no chemical residue behind, making it ideal for environments where chemical exposure is a concern — food preparation areas, healthcare facilities, aged care, and childcare centres.

How Commercial Steam Cleaning Works

A commercial steam cleaner heats water in a sealed boiler to temperatures exceeding 170°C, generating high-pressure dry vapour that is delivered through a range of nozzles, brushes, and accessories to the surface being cleaned. The heat alone kills 99.999% of bacteria, viruses, dust mites, and other pathogens on contact. The pressure blasts through grease, grime, mould, and mineral deposits that chemical cleaners struggle to shift. And because the vapour is dry — less than 5% moisture — surfaces dry quickly without leaving damp residue that could encourage mould growth.

Unlike hot water extraction carpet cleaners or pressure washers, steam cleaners use very little water — making them economical to operate and suitable for use in areas where excess moisture is a problem, such as electrical equipment rooms, food preparation surfaces, and upholstered furniture.

Who Uses Commercial Steam Cleaners?

• Hospitals and healthcare facilities — chemical-free sanitisation of high-touch surfaces, equipment, and patient areas
• Aged care and nursing homes — safe, residue-free cleaning around vulnerable residents
• Hotels and accommodation — sanitising mattresses, upholstery, bathrooms, and kitchen areas without chemical residue
• Restaurants and commercial kitchens — degreasing kitchen equipment, tiles, and surfaces without food-grade chemical concerns

Why Choose Dry Vapour Steam Over Chemical Cleaning?

• Chemical-free — no harsh detergents, no chemical residue, no risk of chemical exposure to staff or clients
• Kills 99.999% of bacteria, viruses, and dust mites on contact through heat alone — no chemical required
• Environmentally friendly — dry steam uses very little water and no chemical waste
• No filter or bag changes — machines like the Athena 8 Plus use natural properties of water and steam, no consumables
• Safe around food preparation areas — no chemical contamination risk on benches, equipment, or surfaces
• Multi-surface capability — floors, walls, windows, upholstery, mattresses, air conditioning units, kitchen equipment
• Fast-drying — low moisture content means surfaces dry quickly without prolonged damp downtime
• One machine, many applications — reduces the number of specialist cleaning products needed in a facility

Steam Pressure Guide — Choosing the Right Machine

Bar pressure is the key performance figure when comparing commercial steam cleaners. Higher bar pressure means hotter, more penetrating steam that cuts through heavier soiling and grease more effectively.

7 Bar — suited to light commercial applications, regular surface sanitisation, and environments with moderate soiling. The MC Vapor 7 is WACER’s entry-level commercial steam cleaner at this pressure.

8 Bar — the most common pressure for mid-range commercial steam cleaning across hotels, aged care, restaurants, and schools. The Athena 8 Plus, SV8D, and MC Vapor 8 operate at 8 bar and cover the widest range of commercial applications.

9 Bar — heavy-duty industrial steam pressure for environments with heavy grease, grime, or industrial soiling. The Vega Plus and Pegaso operate at 9 bar and are suited to commercial kitchens, industrial facilities, hospitals, and demanding commercial cleaning contractors.

If you are unsure which pressure suits your application, WACER’s team will advise based on your surfaces, soiling level, and cleaning frequency. Call (08) 9458 4400 or visit our Bentley showroom.
