How can clean windows affect your commercial building? Learn more below!
Much like how keeping a clean interior office space is critical, making sure that your commercial buildings windows are clean is important for a wide variety of reasons. Adding professional window washing to your maintenance plan can help improve your employee’s work, keep your solar running strong, and help prevent your building from aging poorly and rapidly. Clean windows also mean that passersby will take notice of your business, and not for the wrong reasons.
Improve Employee Happiness and Productivity
Studies have shown that access to natural daylight from windows can help employees to be more productive and satisfied with their jobs. Sunlight affects the function of the circadian rhythm and other aspects of our wellbeing. Increasing time spent in natural light can help fight fatigue, reduce depression, and minimize the effects of seasonal affective disorders. Natural daylight is also easier on the eyes than artificial so that employees will have less eye strain over time. With all this in mind, keeping windows clean and fully operational is important for your employees in many ways. When employees are happier, better rested, and not straining their eyes they are far more likely to be productive which is always a benefit.
More Efficient Solar
With solar options becoming more affordable many businesses are installing solar windows. Solar windows function much like ordinary windows, with only a slight tint, but they can offer massive amounts of power reducing the need for outside energy usage. These windows, in particular, need regular professional cleaning. If dirt and dust accumulate on solar windows, it can cause the panels to work harder to produce the same amount of power meaning you not only are reducing the energy you could be making, but you’re reducing the lifespan of your solar panels as well.
Keep Buildings Looking New
You might be surprised to learn that glass is actually a porous material. As dust, dirt, minerals in the rain, and air pollution all come into contact with the glass they can rub against it, finding hiding spots in the microscopic holes. Over time this can lead to permanent staining of your glass, which will make your building look significantly shabby. Depending on your location you may need your windows cleaned up to six times a year. In more remote areas with little pollution, you can minimize window cleaning to a quarterly schedule.
