Some of the accounts that a Mid-Rise Window Cleaner will have are: office buildings, hotels, schools, banks, and federal buildings. This type of window cleaner is especially skilled to use a “Window Cleaning Water Fed Pole System”, a Water Fed Pole System is used on most of the windows on a particular building. The window cleaner will use Deionized Water so that no minerals will dry to the glass surface. By attaching a Deionized water filter with hose to a long pole with a brush on the end, the window cleaner can access the 2nd and 3rd story windows by standing on the ground. By using this, the window cleaner can be more efficient with his or her time and usually finish the exterior window cleaning in a shorter amount of time than those that will set up ladders. Now, the Water Fed Pole System is not the only way to access the 2nd and 3rd story windows, but of course it is easier.
