DeFoam Powdered Defoaming Additive

Why DeFoam is the Smart Choice

Stop Foam at the Source: Liquid defoamers only treat foam after it’s already in your recovery tank. DeFoam breaks foam on the carpet before it ever reaches your equipment.
Residue-Free Performance: Liquid defoamers leave sticky residues that clog screens and affect performance. DeFoam leaves nothing behind – just effective foam control.
Food-Grade Safety: The active ingredient is used in food processing – no harsh chemicals, no strong odors, no customer complaints.
Incredible Economy: A small sprinkle of powder replaces ounces of liquid defoamer. One container of DeFoam lasts far longer than any liquid alternative.

Key Benefits:
✔ Prevents foam from forming in wands and hoses ✔ Breaks down existing foam residue ✔ Makes vacuum recovery more efficient ✔ Keeps waste tank from prematurely filling up ✔ Odorless granules

One of the most frustrating things a carpet cleaner can face is when the recovery tank fills up and it’s 90% foam. DeFoam is a powerful anti-foaming agent that breaks down even the toughest detergent residues. When sprinkled on the carpet, DeFoam breaks down foam before it gets to your machine. Unlike liquid defoamers that leave sticky residue, HydraMaster DeFoam is a residue-free formula that won’t affect pH or alter cleaning performance. The active ingredient is also used in food processing – safer for you and your customers.

Reasons to Buy:

✅ Stop Foam Before It Reaches Your Machine: Sprinkle on carpet – DeFoam breaks down foam at the source, not after it floods your recovery tank.

✅ No Sticky Residue: Unlike liquid defoamers that leave gummy buildup, DeFoam is residue-free – won’t clog screens or affect cleaning chemistry.

✅ Food-Grade Safe: Active ingredient used in food processing – safe for residential and commercial environments.

Stop Wasting Time on Foam-Filled Recovery Tanks

Nothing kills productivity like stopping every few minutes to empty a recovery tank full of foam instead of water. DeFoam eliminates that frustration. A small sprinkle on the carpet breaks foam on contact – before it ever reaches your wand, hoses, or recovery tank.

Unlike liquid defoamers that leave sticky, gummy residue that builds up in your system over time, DeFoam is residue-free. No clogged screens, no pH changes, no altered cleaning performance. Just effective foam control that keeps you working efficiently.

Keep a container of DeFoam in your truck at all times. When you encounter excessive foam from heavy detergent residues, pre-treatment overspray, or challenging soil conditions, simply sprinkle a small amount on the carpet ahead of your cleaning path. Your vacuum recovery will be dramatically more efficient, and your waste tank will fill with water – not foam.
