Windows and Door Cleaning Tips:

• Do not power-wash windows or use a garden hose; this can cause seal failure or allow water to enter the structure.
• Avoid using metal tools, razor blades, or other sharp metal objects and abrasive cleaners as they can damage window surfaces, scratch glass and remove glass coatings.
• Avoid cleaning glass in direct sunlight as this may cause streaking.
• Avoid cleaning glass that is very cold. Cleaning solution may not dry properly.
• When using commercial cleaning products or solvents, carefully read and follow instructions, cautions, and disposal instructions on manufacturer’s labels, and wear appropriate safety gear (e.g. clothing, goggles, gloves).
• Do not allow aggressive cleaners to come in contact with vinyl, metal clad or wood surfaces.
• Do not allow cleaners to puddle or collect at glass edges near glazing materials.

Weather Stripping Maintenance Tips:

• Denatured alcohol is recommended for non water-soluble cleaning (for stubborn stains, lacquer thinner may be used in small amounts and only as directed). Other solvents such as mineral spirits or petroleum-based products may damage or dissolve weather strip.
• When using alcohol, always test small area first to avoid product damage.
• Always heed warnings and instructions on manufacturers’ labels.
• Do not allow solvents or silicone to touch wood or clad surfaces around weather strip.
• Do not use abrasives, sanders or anything sharp near weather strip.

Screen Inspection Tips:

Double-hung windows have screens located on the interiors side. Insect screens allow air circulation and keep bugs out. In order for these screens to work properly, they must be free of holes, completely intact, and fit snugly in the opening.

• Inspect for cuts, scratches, holes, or loose mesh.
• Replace or repair damaged screens.

If replacement is necessary, contact WindowPro for ordering information.

* Window screens are not a security device and will not prevent a child or anyone from falling through.
