How to Clean Your Windows During Fall

FacebookTwitterEmailShare

Fall is the best time to catch up on window maintenance tasks and get rid of dust that has accumulated over the summer. However, there are specific cleaning techniques that you need to keep in mind in order to complete the task correctly. 

Windows During Fall

Use the Right Cleaning Materials

Before you start cleaning your windows, make sure you have prepared the appropriate products. Avoid harsh cleaning solutions, newspapers, rough-bristle brushes and other items that can scratch or leave streaks on your window panes. Instead, use a window-friendly glass cleaner, clean microfiber cloths, a soft-bristle brush and a vacuum with an extension hose.

Clean Your Windows on a Cloudy Day

Never clean your windows when it’s bright and sunny outside because the heat will cause the cleaning solution to dry too quickly and leave streaks on the window panes. Cleaning your windows on a cloudy day will give you enough time to wipe the cleaning solutions off the windows, resulting in shiny, streak-free panes.

Observe Correct Cleaning Techniques

Focus, precision and the right cleaning techniques are essential in achieving spotlessly clean windows. First, remove the blinds, curtains, furniture, plants and other decorative items around your windows. Next, loosen the dirt and grime from window frames, tracks and screens using your soft-bristle brush or your vacuum’s extension hose. Then, line the window sills with microfiber cloths to prevent splashes and drips. Using a sponge dipped in soapy water, wash your window frames and screens. Afterward, spray your window panes with the right glass cleaner, then use a clean microfiber cloth to wipe the dirt down.
