Windows have been around since the 13th century, but the first patent for a window-cleaning device was only issued in 1874 to a man named Alfred Chalon. Since then, many has seen the light, but there is one clear winner – the squeegee.

Here is a question for you: How often do you clean your windows? Is it an annual, bi-annual, or quarterly affair or do you leave it until you really have to clean them?

Clean windows might look stunning, but that’s not the only reason to clean them.

Did you know that clean windows can…

Enhance natural light: Dirty windows can block natural light from entering a room, which can make the space feel dark and gloomy. Clean windows allow more light to come through and can improve the ambiance of a room.

Prevent damage: Dirt, dust, and other debris can build up on windows and cause scratches and other damage. Regular cleaning can extend the life of your windows.

Maintain hygiene: Windows can harbour germs and bacteria, especially in high traffic areas like offices and public spaces. Regular cleaning can prevent the spread of illnesses.

Increase energy efficiency: Dirty windows can also reduce the energy efficiency of a building. Clean windows allow more natural light to enter, reducing the need for artificial lighting and saving energy on heating and cooling.

While cleaning windows is generally a simple task, a squeegee alone can’t do all the work though, you need a great window cleaning solution to help speed up the process.
