 The reach and wash system consists of a mobile five stage water filtration system to de-ionise the water and composite glass fibre poles to deliver 100%pure water to the window.
Why do we use this system? - The reach and wash system cleans with greater efficiency than conventional methods.
- It washes framework and rinses off sills as work is being carried out.
- De-ionised water dries to a spot free finish and actually leaves the cleaned surface sterile.
- Operators work from the safety of the ground which eliminates the need for ladders and expensive high access equipment i.e. hydraulic platforms.
- Reaches previously in accessible widows with ease i.e. glass atria/ conservatories.
- Environmentally friendly, no chemical residues are left creating an anti-static finish, meaning windows stay cleaner longer as dirt has nothing to cling to.
- Reduced disturbance, no heavy ladders banging around walls.
- Proven in the market place and recognised to be the future of window cleaning, on both sides of the contract.
- Chemical residues can shorten the life of sealants used for double glazed windows by drying them out creating cracks which allow moisture to enter between the panes basically ruining double glazed windows de-ionised water does not do this.
Everyone knows that water is H20 hydrogen and oxygen but in fact tap water contains other chemical elements such as calcium, chlorine, iron and copper to name but a few.
What people may not realise is that if you wash windows with untreated tap water and leave it to dry, once the hydrogen and oxygen have evaporated, these chemical and mineral residues are left on the glass, creating unsightly smears and streaks and in hard water areas (like London) lime scale damage which is usually permanent.
The reach and wash 5 stage filtration system removes all the chemical and mineral content from the water, thus when the H20 evaporates it leaves nothing behind except sparkling clean glass! The only downside to cleaning with de-ionised water is that it is designed for regular cleaning, this means that the first clean may not always result in a perfect finish, although usually 90% perfect there may be a few runs on the glass, this occurs because often window frames have tiny cracks that hold dirt which is not flushed out the first clean this will impurify the water leaving runs when it dries. This problem does not usually occur after the first clean. |
