Over the years, cleaning windows using the water fed pole has become very popular. Since then, the water fed pole has become the new way when it comes to washing outside windows. A recent test has concluded that using the water fed pole has completed the job 50 percent faster. Just imagine standing in the baking sun and really wanting to get the job. Imagine how quickly you will be able to wash the windows! You won’t even feel the heat. So what is needed? What equipment is involved?
The first thing one will need is a brush. This is always a good starting point. You can walk into any store or hardware store and pick up an ideal brush for the job. Pay attention! The brush’s role is the jets of water that is sprayed, and also the bristles of the brush that come into contact with the glass you are going to be cleaning. You have to take note of two types of water jets: the one is called pencil jets and the other is called fan water jets. Let’s have a look at these two types of jets more closely:
Fan jets are when the water is under pressure, and this is when the brush’s width is completely covered with water. This is constant and the brush remains wet at all times.
Pencil jets are when water is only released from two points on the brush. Unlike fan jets, the water is not under pressure.
If you are rinsing the glass with the brush, and the brush is in contact with the glass at all times, many people normally prefer using fan jets. If you prefer lifting the brush off the window when rinsing then pencil jets would be the preferred term.
The following part of the brush you have to look at is the brush’s bristles. The densities, shapes and lengths differ. There are just so many to choose from. It is important to remember that you do not want bristles flocked – the ends bashed – as this is well-known for trapping dirt. You also don’t want the bristles too dense, because this often prevents dirty water from flowing down the window. Also, you want to make sure the bristles are crinkled. This way more bristle comes into contact with the window and makes scrubbing easier.
The first water fed pole that appeared on the market was somewhat heavy, and constructed mainly of glass fiber. They were manufactured in such a way that they were unable to be taken apart.
Times have changed and the poles available to the consumer are now stronger, lighter and also much cheaper. Next, you will need a pump to transfer the water, a hose to move water from its storage tank to its water fed pole. Finally, you will need a 12V power supply or battery to power the pump.
Once you have everything you need, you are set to go. Washing windows doesn’t have to be a dragging chore anymore. It can be done in the least amount of time so you can get on with more important things.
