Service and Location
-
Location: Flatiron District & Soho, Manhattan, NY

Client: Alo Yoga (Fitness & Retail Sanctuary)
Project Overview
NYC Steam Cleaning was commissioned to perform a deep restorative cleaning for Alo Yoga’s Manhattan locations. As a premier “wellness sanctuary,” Alo Yoga requires a level of cleanliness that matches its high-end brand aesthetic.
The challenge involved heavy foot traffic from retail customers and the unique hygiene needs of a professional yoga studio. Sweat, oils, and outdoor pollutants can quickly degrade gym carpets and compromise indoor air quality. We utilized our IICRC-certified green cleaning protocols to ensure the space was not only visually spotless but also free of allergens and harsh chemical residues, aligning with Alo’s holistic wellness mission.
The Process
-
Industrial HEPA Vacuuming: We began with a deep-soil extraction using CRI Gold-rated vacuums to remove fine particulates and dust from the carpet base.
-
Organic Pre-Treatment: A non-toxic, pH-balanced enzymatic solution was applied to high-traffic “pathways” to break down body oils and sweat without damaging the delicate fibers.
-
High-Heat Steam Extraction: Using truck-mounted equipment, we injected 200°F+ softened water to flush out contaminants, effectively sanitizing the carpet while killing bacteria and odors.
-
Rapid-Dry Technology: To accommodate the studio’s busy class schedule, we deployed industrial air movers to ensure the carpets were dry and ready for foot traffic within hours.

For large spaces like the Alo Yoga Flatiron location, we typically complete the work overnight (4–8 hours). Our high-powered extraction allows for quick drying so business can resume by morning.
