At **EcoClean Vancouver**, we want to share some tips we use to get excellent results with every service.
## 1. Choose the Right Time
One of the most common mistakes is cleaning windows when the sun is directly on them. The heat causes the cleaning product to evaporate too quickly, leaving streaks and smudges.
Ideally, you should clean windows in the morning, late afternoon, or on cloudy days.
## 2. Use Microfiber Cloths
Microfiber cloths are an excellent option because they don’t leave lint and help remove dirt easily.
Avoid using paper towels or kitchen roll, as they can leave residue on the glass.
3. Start by removing dust
Before applying any product, remove dust and cobwebs from the frames, tracks, and corners. This will prevent dirt from turning into mud when it comes into contact with the cleaning fluid.
4. Don’t forget the frames and tracks
Many people only clean the glass, but the frames also accumulate dirt, pollen, and moisture.
A complete cleaning includes:
* Interior and exterior frames.
* Tracks on sliding windows.
* Corners where dust tends to accumulate.
* Handles and locks.
5. Use the correct technique
Professionals usually clean one side of the glass with horizontal strokes and the other with vertical strokes. This makes it easy to identify which side has any marks.
Then, use a rubber squeegee to remove excess water and achieve a uniform finish.
## 6. Check the final details
When the glass appears clean, examine it from different angles. Often, fingerprints or small smudges are only visible when the light changes.
A dry microfiber cloth is usually enough for the final touch.
## How often should you clean your windows?
The frequency depends on your home’s environment.
Generally, it’s recommended:
* Every 2 or 3 months in residential areas.
* More frequently if your home is near main roads, construction sites, or areas with high pollen counts.
Keeping your windows clean helps preserve the frames and improves the overall appearance of your home.
