The water fed pole window cleaning
system
The
benefits
1). Better Cleaning Results.
Dirt particles are agitated using a purpose made,
soft bristled brush, and rinsed away using extremely pure
water. You may be surprised to know that no chemicals or
detergents are required. You should also expect to see the
windows cleaned using this method left wet. Don’t worry, this
is normal. It may be a little disconcerting at first, since
this is not what you have been used to, but please be assured
that the windows will dry naturally, and once dry you will be
no doubt be impressed with the results. Even the window frames
will be cleaned each time!
You will likely notice that the windows seem to
stay clean for longer. This is because there is no sticky soap
residue left on the window. Usually rainfall would mix with
this soap residue and form little spots on the windows. After
a little while using this method, all traces of the soap
residue will be rinsed away. The rain will have no soap
residue to mix with and therefore they will appear to remain
cleaner for longer.
2). Health and Safety
Legislation
Legislation now limits the use of ladders as
temporary workstations. The law states that ladders should
only be used when all viable safer alternatives have been
considered. Water fed pole systems are seen as a safer
alternative. This window cleaning method allows us to do the
job to a very high standard and I feel it is a sensible
decision to choose to work from the safety of the ground.
After all, no matter how careful you are, unfortunately
accidents do happen.

3). Reduced disturbance.
Although we do our best to keep disturbance to a minimum,
ladder use causes some inevitable disturbance. Eg. Rattling of the
metal, dents in your lawn etc. These problems are avoided with the
use of water fed poles.
4). Increased privacy.
Something many householders appreciate is that by using
water fed poles instead of ladders, there is no more need to worry
about the window cleaner suddenly appearing at the bedroom window.
No more running around tidying up or shutting the
curtains!
5.) Improved access.
We can now reach with ease previously inaccessible
aspects of your property such as third floor windows, conservatory
roofs, windows above the conservatory or sloping roofs and other
windows that previously had to be left for safety reasons.
6.) Added services.
It is now possible for us to clean many more external
features of your property. Frames, UPVC, panelling and cladding,
canopies, guttering, fascias, garage doors etc. Please request
further information if these services are of interest to
you.
Finally,
Although we will do our best to rinse away as much as
possible of the previously mentioned soap residue left from previous
cleaning methods, please allow for some slight ‘spotting’ for the
first clean. Soap tends to lodge around the edge of the frames, and
it may take a few cleans to completely rinse it away. Please feel
free to phone or discuss any part of the above or indeed any other
aspect of our service. If you have any concerns about this new way
of cleaning your windows please let me know and we will endeavour to
alleviate your concerns.
