The need for the pure water window cleaning
The need for pure water when cleaning windows and solar panels
Industries are always on the lookout for ways to improve the way they do things. The window cleaning industry is not immune to this phenomenon. The embracing of new technologies in our industry has sped up the glass cleaning process and enabled cleaners to do their job in a safer and in a more efficient way. The origins of pure water window cleaning can be traced back to the early 1990’s when the need arose for a better and more environmentally friendly way to clean windows.
The pure water cleaning system.
Normal tap water (and rainwater) contains sediments, minerals and other dissolved solids. While these impurities are ok to drink, they are not desired when it comes to cleaning windows. These minerals, sediments and dissolved solids in tap water end up on the glass as spots and streaks after cleaning has been completed. By purifying water, using various filtering systems not only removes these sediments and minerals but also makes the purified water act like a dirt magnet and lifts the dirt off the glass that can be easily rinsed off the glass in order to leave the glass panes spotless when it dries. The pure water system eliminated the need for soaps and detergents and the need to dry and polish windows after being cleaned.
Water fed poles and brushes.
Purified water gets fed through a hose to the top of an extendable pole up to the outside window level (3 floors, ground floor 1 and floor 2 higher levels can be achieved if a longer pole is used) At the top of the pole a brush is fitted, armed with water jets delivering pure water right onto the glass. The soft bristles of the brush agitate the dirt and the magnetic effect of the pure water lifts the dirt off the glass. A final rinse ensures all the dirt gets washed off the glass ensuring a spotless finish when the glass dries on its own.
