Can I use a steam cleaner on my Natural Stone floor?

Q: Hi Lee,

I am looking at buying a steam cleaner to clean my travertine floors, will it damage them?

Thanks

Emma

A:Hi Emma,

Even though steam cleaners are very good, because of the intense heat given direct into the tile breaks down the stainstop and also can make the stone brittle. It will make your travertine brittle and could melt the filler in your tile. Lithofin have done extensive tests with steam cleaners on Natural Stone tiles. We auggest you keep using Easycare or Wash & Clean.

I hope this helps.
