There is no way to sanitize a carpet. HWE will not sanitize a carpet. Ozone will not penetrate enough to sanitize. Cleaning a carpet will help reduce bacteria and viruses but will never sanitize completely. The research I have done on this matter it is nothing more of a sales gimmick.
For something to be sterilized it needs to be in boiling water for Approximately 10 minutes. HWE can only achieve this for a few seconds. Peroxide detergents stand a better chance at killing most bacteria etc but will never penetrate far enough to be considered sterile.
The short answer is. You can't clean a carpet and leave it sterile.
