why use pure water for window cleaning?
Pure water is often preferred for window cleaning for several reasons:
1.Minimizes Streaks: Pure water is free from impurities such as minerals, chemicals, and dissolved solids. These impurities can leave streaks and residue on windows when they dry. By using pure water, we reduce the chances of streaking and achieve a cleaner, clearer finish.
2.No Residue: Tap water often contains minerals like calcium and magnesium, which can leave behind white deposits or “hard water spots” when it evaporates on glass surfaces. Pure water doesn’t leave any residue, ensuring a spotless and crystal-clear result.
3.Eco-Friendly: Using pure water eliminates the need for additional cleaning agents or detergents. This can be beneficial for individuals with chemical sensitivities or those who prefer eco-friendly cleaning methods. Pure water is a natural solvent that effectively lifts dirt and grime from surfaces without the need for harsh chemicals.
4.Faster, Better Cleaning: Pure water has a high affinity for dirt particles due to its molecular structure. As it comes into contact with dirt on the window surface, it absorbs and carries away the grime, resulting in more efficient cleaning. This can save time and effort compared to traditional methods that require scrubbing or wiping.
Our well trained professionals will spend some time cleaning the window frames first before they clean the glass. This ensures the best overall result because dirt on the frames can later drip onto the clean glass. Traditional cleaning methods, while effective, don’t always require the frames to be cleaned first.
5. Safety, Reach, and Accessibility: Pure water can be used with specialized window cleaning equipment like water-fed poles, allowing the operator to work safely from the ground.
These poles have brushes attached at the end and deliver a continuous flow of pure water. This allows for cleaning windows at greater heights or difficult-to-reach areas without the need for ladders or scaffolding.
It’s important to note that pure water is typically achieved through a process called reverse osmosis or deionization, which removes impurities from regular tap water. This purified water is then used for window cleaning purposes to achieve the best results.
