No Streak Window Cleaning Methods

Washing windows can be a daunting task. With the harsh winter we are having, the salt and dirt will be piling up on your windows. To help you with this chore we have tested out some techniques that may be useful for you. Take a look and let us know what time saving methods you use in the comments below.  

In our first test we tried the store window cleaner.  As seen in the picture above after wiping down it seemed to leave streaks.  Next, we used store dish washing liquid.  The dish washing liquid left no streaks.  

We tackled glass windows, but what if you have a vinyl window? What can you use?  Extreme care must be taken when cleaning the vinyl window.  Do not use any harsh cleaners or detergents.  Bleach and formulas containing bleach should be avoided.  It is important not to use a pressure washer.  We recommend a special vinyl cleaner.  This has been specially formulated for the vinyl windows.  This cleaner can be purchased from Styleline just call 1-888-323-0594.

For best results, your windows needs to be cool before washing.  Make sure all dust and loose sand and grit has been removed from all areas of the frame.  Best way to do this is use a soft brush attachment with your vacuum cleaner.

Saving Energy and costs this Winter

With the high cost of heating this winter it would be a good idea to take a look at your home to lower the costs.

1. Checking your insulation for heat loss through the ceiling and walls in your home might be lacking.  Making sure that every corner including the space above the attic door helps decrease the heat you may lose.  Pipes, duck work and chimneys have gaps that may need sealing as well.

2.  Gaps in flooring, faucets, electric outlets, door and windows will need attention.  Filling them with caulk and sealing them with the appropriate materials with ensure that less leakage of air.  Replacing your lighting with a more efficient CFL or LED will greatly reduce energy your home may be producing.

3.  Your heating and cooling systems will need to inspected yearly.  Any unit over 15 years old might need replacing to  a newer, energy efficient unit.  New filters will help the unit run more efficient, otherwise it is working harder to get the dust and dirt out of your home.

Once you complete your own DIY energy audit and you are not seeing a change you might want to consider contacting a professional to better analyze the areas of your home that you might be losing the energy.

Stylish Awnings and Canopies

Awnings and Canopies have been around since the Egyptian era. Egyptians used them as a way to keep cool on hot days and to protect the goods they are selling from the elements.  It was not til the 19th century that aluminum replaced by fabric in colder weather climates. Aluminum awnings could stand up to the snow and heavy rains, where the fabric awnings and canopies would need more maintenance. Now days they are not just for function but for increasing the eye appeal of your home and business.  The limited plain colors are in the past, you now can create a look that fits your style of your home and business.

Jazzing up the style of your building is one benefit, but there is more.  When it is extremely hot, the sun is heating up our homes. When it is cold, we want the sun to warm up our homes. and with extreme weather we want to protect our homes and windows.  Awnings can provide this to your home. Other benefits of awnings can be add extra room for parties outside with protection from the weather, protect your furniture and carpets from fading and shelter children and pets from direct contact of the sun.
