What is the difference between carpet extraction and restoration?

Why is the carpet pad a focus during water removal?

The pad holds most of the water and sits against the subfloor, so it causes most lasting damage if left wet.

Removing water from wet carpet and pad with pumps and weighted extraction tools, then drying the carpet and subfloor beneath.
