There is a force pressing down on all of us.    We all know about GRAVITY - but what has it got to do with window cleaning?    Welcome to REACH-iT WORKSHOP!  Welcome to the REACH-IT WORKSHOP, our new water-fed window cleaning video series, 'FROM THE TAP TO THE GLASS... and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN'!

Did you know that the materials which water-fed poles are made from can affect your performance and ultimately your business?    Welcome to the REACH-IT WORKSHOP, our new water-fed window cleaning video series, 'FROM THE TAP TO THE GLASS... and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN'!

You, my friend are a WINDOW CLEANING MACHINE - and you do not want to be inefficient!  When cleaning windows, you are attached to a water-fed pole. Your pole makes a huge difference to your efficiency. You are only as good as the pole you use!  Welcome to the REACH-IT WORKSHOP, our new water-fed window cleaning video series, 'FROM THE TAP TO THE GLASS... and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN'!

When we were water-fed window cleaners, we used to say this to our customers: "If it rains within 7 days of our window cleaning service, and you get spots on your windows, we will clean them again - for free!”  Does this sound risky to you? Or unbelievable to your customers?   Welcome to the REACH-IT WORKSHOP, our new water-fed window cleaning video series, 'FROM THE TAP TO THE GLASS... and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN'!

Why does the Window Cleaning Industry prescribe TDS less than 10 to achieve spot-free water?  Is it true?  How can some window cleaners get spot-free results with TDS over 50, and others cannot? If you can do this, you could save up to 50% of your DI RESIN running costs. Welcome to the REACH-IT WORKSHOP, our new water-fed window cleaning video series, 'FROM THE TAP TO THE GLASS... and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN'!

In this series on WATER SCIENCE, we explore why we get spots after cleaning our windows when we use tap water.  Welcome to the REACH-IT WORKSHOP, our new water-fed window cleaning video series, 'FROM THE TAP TO THE GLASS... and EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN'!  These topics are all going to be available on YouTube, on our podcast channel, and as a PDF for your operating procedures and training manuals.

In this episode we explain TDS and why it leaves spots.
