Advantages Of Using A Waterfed Pole System Water Fed Pole (WFP) cleaning is at least twice as fast as traditional commercial window cleaning methods. However, costing between $500 – $45,000 it is a considerable investment relative to a ladder. To use the WFP system, the window and frames are scrubbed with a wet brush to loosen dirt and then rinsed with highly purified or de-ionised water. Because the water is pure, it leaves no marks when it dries. Some firms have a large container of de-ionised or purified water in the back of their van or truck, which is pumped up the WFP to the window. Small firms or those with restricted access (like at the back of a home) use trolleys or backpacks to move about a small container and pump unit. Elite Window Washing uses filter tanks with long hoses to be able to reach any part of a building no matter the size. For commercial window cleaning customers, it is not uncommon for access to be limited due to the way a structure is built, so in these cases Elite Window Washing will use a lift to be able to access these hard to reach areas.
The advantage of a WFP system is that it leaves windows and trim cleaner than with a squeegee, it removes more dirt from the grooves on window frames and it reaches windows in places too dangerous to put a ladder. Also WFP systems can be used in the rain as rainfall will not re-activate any soap residue that causes white rain spots.Elite Window Washing uses several water fed pole cleaning systems in its San Diego commercial window cleaning arm.
We have tried to cover the most common topics and questions that our commercial clients ask. However, if you have a question that is not answered on this page, or you require further information, please contact us and we will be happy to discuss your query.
How does using this commercial window cleaning system save us money?
In the window cleaning industry prices are inflated due to risk, the greater the risk the higher the price, as danger money is then applied. Also the hiring of expensive lifts and using traditional commercial window cleaning techniques that takes 50% longer inflates prices greatly. Because there is no risk and no high access equipment required, we can pass on these savings to our clients.
How much money will the Water Fed Pole system save us?
In terms of how much is a difficult one to answer as every commercial window washing job is different and has its own problems and complexities. However through past experience and customer feedback, on average, we are saving our clients around 35-40% of their total commercial window cleaning costs, by using this system. This is in comparison with the more conventional methods used before, such as ladders etc.
Is it safe?
Yes. Because the operators work from the safety of the ground and no ladders or other equipment are used. Commercial window washing has never been safer!
Are the poles heavy and how do you control it so high?
The poles are made from high quality aircraft grade aluminum which is a very light but extremely strong material. As it is so strong and durable we can easily control the poles without too much friction or bend. When working on heights in excess of 40 feet we always work in pairs with one person checking the terrain.
What method do you use for Commercial Window Cleaning?
On top of the pole is a nylon brush head with a small channel that lets out a constant supply of pure water. First we clean the frames and then the glass by moving the brush head (which is constantly wet) over them. We then rinse the windows and frames and leave to dry to a spot free finish. Thats it! Commercial window washing in a nutshell. Very simple, very efficient.
Are any chemicals used during this filtration process?
No. All filters contain natural elements such as salt, resin beads and carbon sediment and are environmentally safe.
Can the water damage or stain my property or building?
No. More damage is caused from pollution in the rain or atmosphere. The water is pure, with no contaminants it.
