Kärcher 26441910 Glass & Facade Cleaning Attachment, Multicoloured

Product Information

Pressure washer: You can use a pressure washer or an attachment that you generally use for car washing. Mix the recommended amount of windows cleaning solution and use the washer to clean the windows. Make sure that the pressure is turned on in case you are going with a pressure washer. Stand far away from the windows, otherwise, the extra pressure might break them. The brush head that comes with the pole is good quality, but a little on the soft side and this has its pros and cons. One hand it won’t scratch your windows, but it does mean you need to use a bit more elbow grease to shift more stubborn dirt and grime. For strength, stability, sturdiness, and every other good word starting with ‘s’ you can think of, look no further than the DocaPole. Water fed window cleaning poles can be attached to a garden hose and have a constant flow of water travelling through them.

So, it’s good to know that there are products out there that eliminate the need to scale up to those high up spots, seriously lowering the risk of an accident and injury. Even at that full extension, the Karcher window cleaning pole feels strong and sturdy, and because you don’t need to exert any physical pressure on the end, controlling the movement is really easy and also a lot less tiring. The fact that this tool only weighs 2.3kg also helps wit this, as does the free shoulder strap. This window cleaning pole has been made out of the highest quality aluminium to keep the pole’s weight down to a minimum while at the same time ensuring that this is a product that lasts. I know that a lot of people’s first thoughts when they hear the word ‘aluminium’ is that flimsy tin foil we use for cooking. Contrary to that thinking, it is actually a very strong material with excellent anti-rusting properties, and that’s why it is used in so many products these days.The combination of a metal ladder, soap suds, water, and height, is a potential recipe for disaster if you’re not careful, and falling from even a few feet can cause serious injury, let alone a slip of a ladder from a second-floor window! When I head up the tripod ladder it’s more than enough for me to get the jitters! If the micro-fibre pad starts to look a bit worse for wear, you can simply throw it in the washing machine and it’ll come out looking (almost) like new. Simply hanging it up on the washing line is enough to get it dried out. For optimal cleaning and a streak-free result, the Glass Finisher can also be used. However, the cleaning agent should not be used in direct sunlight or allowed to dry on the windows. Apart from a few little niggles, I still think this is a very good option for customers who don’t want to spend a lot on a water fed window cleaning hose. The connectors for the separate sections are solid, as are the aluminium sections themselves, and the 3 metre range is very practical. In principle, you have two options - either you climb a ladder and clean the surfaces by hand or you use a pressure washer in combination with a telescopic jet pipe, which is a significantly less dangerous and time-consuming solution.

If you already own a pressure washer, or you don’t mind buying one, you can’t really beat this product as far as window cleaning poles go, as nothing will give you the cleaning performance this telescopic jet pipe can offer. Beneath the squeegee is a removable spray head that you can fill with water, detergent or other cleaning products, but this obviously is only really practical when you’re using it as a hand squeegee and not when the pole is fully extended to its max. Still, it does come in handy. Now, before we start this review proper, it is important that you know this product must be used with a pressure washer, preferably a Karcher brand one to get the best results. Steam cleaner: You can steam clean the reversible windows. Once done applying the steam, you should use a squeegee and then microfiber polish cloth to get some added shine.If you really want to take the effort out of cleaning your windows, and you don’t mind paying a little extra, the Karcher Telescopic Jet Pipe could be right up your street. These tools really do take the effort out of cleaning windows. Well, maybe not quite as much as my cordless pressure washer for the downstairs windows anyway, but the cheapest models can be yours for under twenty pounds, and that’s a bargain if you ask me.

The squeegee attachment can be flipped over and has a long sponge on the rear side, but the squeegee itself isn’t the best and bends quite a lot, making it quite difficult to use at long lengths. When I first saw that this was a five-section window cleaning pole, my first instincts is that that is where leaking would occur, but actually those connections are excellent and not even a sign of a drip in sight. They also feel very solid and hold the sections tightly. You don’t need a huge telescopic window cleaning pole if you live in a bungalow or cottage, but a good quality, shorter pole can still save you stretching up and across your downstairs window and save you a lot of time and energy.

There are no rubber coated section for extra grip on this window cleaning pole, again a cost saving thing I would say, but the plastic handle and small plastic sections along the pole are quite adequate and at the base of the handle there is a handy hanging hole for easy storage. When you buy lower budget products you have to expect a few differences between them and the higher end models. With this window cleaning pole, it is most obvious in the main material used for the pole which is ABS plastic instead of aluminium. Mascarello have brought us this great little product that is easily affordable for anyone, but still has features more commonly fund on window cleaning poles that are twice the price! Apart from a couple of silly things like this, the Hi-tech window cleaning pool is a decent bit of kit. The five-section pole is well constructed from good quality aluminium and feels nice and sturdy. There is some flex there when it is fully extended to 16ft, especially with the hose attached and the weight of the water, but that is to be expected, and again, there are easy work-arounds if it bothers you.

This Kit Contains a 5m(17ft) Extension Pole, 25cm Water-Fed Brush, 25cm Single Pivot Squeegee, Cobweb Duster, Soap Dispenser, Water-Fed Bush in line Tap and User Manual. This kit includes, 13ft telescopic water fed window cleaning pole, soap dispenser, soft brush head with built in squeegee blade and 2 x brass jets and y splitter, on off brass tap and 20ft of 8mm water hose, For less than a hundred pounds, you can be the proud owner of this extremely handy window cleaning pole. And when you consider how much it costs to get someone to come and clean your windows each year, that actually works out at quite a bargain, especially when you realise that this tool can be used for a whole host of other jobs such as clearing out gutters, or cleaning moss of walls. Cleaning the windows is a time taking the task, especially when you cannot reach them. However, there are multiple ways to clean exterior windows without using a ladder. You can first try to clean them from inside. If it’s not possible, then try one of the following ideas. Most higher end window cleaning poles will be made out of metal, usually aluminium. This material is chosen because it s very lightweight, yet still strong, and has very good corrosion resistance.The squeegee isn’t quite as good, and if you try to use it with the extra weight of the water, it can actually be quite difficult to use. If you drain the pipe of water though, it does become much easier.
