Something that has revolutionised the window cleaning industry is the availability and advancement of high quality equipment and resources, one of the most popular resources that has changed the way we wash windows, is pure water systems.
You're thinking water is water right?! Wrong - there is a reason why water from your humble home taps aren't getting the job done with perfection. Ever wondered why when you've cleaned the windows there are those little white spots of residue left behind? You can thank pollution, exhaust fumes, pollen and dust for that.
So what makes pure water systems so special? Pure water is just that, pure, there are no added salts or dissolved solids present in the water.
TDS, otherwise known as “total dissolved solids” is the measure for water purity. The more solid particles or minerals in the water, the higher the TDS number. The number will start from zero, zero being optimum purity. Th number represents how many foreign parts per million (ppm) the water contains. For example, the World Health Organisation discovered that natural sources of water can read a TDS number that widely varies from less than 30 ppm up to 6000 ppm.
To measure the water your commercial window cleaner should have a TDS device that reads the purity levels of the water they are using - but what it effectively does is test the electrical conductivity of the water and pure water should have absolutely no indication of electrical conductivity in its reading.
The industry recommends that in pure water there should be zero parts per million if you want to achieve outstanding results on your windows. It sounds strict but the probability of achieving this is extremely high if you work with good and complex water purification tools.
