The Name Behind Your Steamer
This appliance is a result of over 25 years of expertise in dry steam technology and our fascination
with the origins of sanitization. In 1864, a French scientist named Louis Pasteur invented
“pasteurization”, a method of sanitizing objects and surfaces using high heat; a process that is
commonly used today in a variety of industries and applications. Although Pasteur is considered to
be the father of modern microbiology, the origins of microbiology actually trace back to ancient
Rome.
In 37 BCE, one of Ancient Rome’s greatest scholars named Marcus Terentius Varro predicted that:
“...there are bred certain minute creatures which cannot be seen by the eyes, but which float in the
air and enter the body through the mouth and nose and cause serious diseases...”
Nearly 2000 years ago, Varro not only predicted the existence
of microscopic organisms, but he also predicted that certain
microorganisms may be pathogenic and cause diseases. He
teaches his readers that cleanliness is the best way to avoid
these disease-causing microorganisms. Almost 2000
years later, we can now achieve proper sanitization with dry
steam technology and Varro’s theory was not only correct,
but is more relevant today than ever before.
Every Soniclean Varro steamer is built, assembled and tested
by skilled technicians in our factory in Northern Italy.
With proper use and regular maintenance, your Soniclean
Varro will allow you to achieve excellent cleaning results for
many years to come.
On the following page, you will learn about dry steam
technology.

What is “Dry Steam”
Most residential steamers use boilers that are designed for low pressure operation. While
effective in some applications, low pressure steam leaves behind a considerable amount of hot
water residue during cleaning and requires long contact times for disinfecting surfaces and
objects.
Dry steam, also known as “saturated steam”, is produced when water is heated and pressurized
beyond its normal boiling point of 212°F. The higher the temperature/pressure of the steam, the
less water the steam will contain by mass. For example, if steam contains 10% water by mass,
then the steam has a dryness fraction of 0.9 or 90%.
For steam to be considered “dry steam”, the steam cannot contain more than 5% water by mass.
The Soniclean Varro combines high heat with 7 bars of pressure, to produce dry steam that is up
to 338°F with a dryness fraction greater than 0.95.
