3 Reasons Why Window Screens also need Quality Cleaning   

It’s inarguable that your windows – both commercial and residential – should be cleaned thoroughly and regularly. But, that’s not the end of this important way to enhance your home’s or your business’ appearance and quality.

Don’t forget about your screens!

When you clean your windows, you have to take your screens off, right? Well, at least you should be taking them off in order to clean both sides of the window. So, as long as they’re off, clean them as well.

Your screens are likely much dirtier than your windows.  It’s counterproductive to put dirty screens back on your clean windows. One small gust of wind and all that grime and debris on your screens go right onto your shiny clean windows. (Or makes you dirty windows very hard to clean when you do clean them.).

But, apart from common sense and a more pleasant view when looking in or out of your windows, there are 3 very important reasons to clean your screens.

The 3 Reasons Window Screens also need your attention

• It’s economical – Think about it. If you keep your screens clean, you’re prolonging the cleanliness of your windows.  As previously mentioned, screens collect and accumulate dirt, dust, and environmental residue. It doesn’t take much of a breeze to send that dirt to your windows.

If you pay to get your windows cleaned, the longer you go without cleaning your screens the dirtier your windows become and the harder they are to clean making you clean them more often than you’d prefer.

Whether you have a residential property or a commercial building, if you pay for a commercial window cleaning service, you might be paying too much too often just because you’ve neglected cleaning your screens. You’ll add up savings if you clean your screens regularly.

• It’s healthier – Let’s talk about wind or a nice breeze again. It’s lovely, right? Well, it can be as long as it’s not blowing allergens, like pollen, or dirt and other environmental debris into your house. Now, instead of breathing in the fresh air, you’re breathing in particles that can affect your sinuses and your breathing. This is especially threatening to those with allergies and asthma.

Furthermore, dirty screens put everyone in the building or home at risk of mold exposure. Everyone is aware of mold – and black mold has received a lot of attention in the media as especially harmful. But regardless of the type, mold indoors is hazardous to your health and seriously impedes the quality of the indoor air you breathe. And all it takes for you to be at risk is some environmental debris and a bit of water on your screen and mold begins to grow and accumulate on unclean screens.

So, even though a soft rain and nice warm breeze may be cozy, it’s putting your health and the quality of the indoor air you’re breathing at severe risk – if your screens are dirty.

3).  It’s easy. All you need to do is take off your screens, and then  – for lightly dirty screens – just roll each side of the screen with a lint brush. If your screens have heavier amounts of dust and dirt, you can use a vacuum attachment and vacuum each side.
