Preventative maintenance is key to preserving the beauty and functionality of your sash windows for years to come. By following these simple tips, you can protect your investment and enjoy hassle-free operation:
With proper care and maintenance, your sash windows can remain a stunning focal point of your home for generations.
Regular cleaning is vital for maintaining the appearance and functionality of your sash windows. Use a mild detergent solution and a soft cloth to wipe down the frames and glass. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that can damage the wood or paint. For hard-to-reach corners, use a vacuum cleaner with a crevice tool. Don’t forget to address the space between the sashes – this area can accumulate dust and debris that can hinder smooth operation.
Over time, the tracks and pulleys of your sash windows can become stiff, making them difficult to open and close. To ensure smooth operation, apply a light coat of silicone-based lubricant or dry lubricant to the tracks and pulleys. Avoid oil-based lubricants as they can attract dust and dirt. Regularly check for any paint build-up or debris that might be hindering movement and gently remove them.
