Keep window tracks clean of dirt and debris. Keep weep holes open and clear of obstructions.
Wash using a mild detergent (if necessary) and a soft cloth or ordinary long handled soft bristle brush. Do not wash the windows or doors with a high pressure spay. the extreme pressure could crack or destroy the caulking around the window or door.
For difficult to remove dirt and stains use the readily available household cleaners listed on the chart. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on use of the cleaners.
In some cases, you may wish to use a mildly abrasive cleaner such as soft scrub®, but the use of any abrasive material could scratch the surface of the glass and win- dow or door frame.
Do not use liquid solvents such as mineral spirits, toluene, xylem, naphtha, muriatic acid, grease remover, strong soaps and detergents containing organic solvents, nail polish remover, furniture polish or cleaners containing chlorine bleach. Use of these will breakdown the seal of your insulated glass unit and could affect the surface appearance of the vinyl and void your warranty. In addition, do not apply tint film as this also voids your warranty.
