Easy-clean glass is not new technology per se. But it is still new to a lot of homeowners who do not understand what it is and how it works. We're not going to get into a scientific explanation here, but basically, easy-clean glass is glass that has a coating on the outside surface that prevent water, dirt and residue from adhering to the window. This simple coating provides a number of benefits over traditional glass which makes it a must-have for anyone who is looking to get the windows replaced in their Greater Vancouver home.
The following are some of the benefits of easy-clean glass:
-
Save time and money: Easy-clean glass does not need to be cleaned as often and thus will save you a great deal of time if you clean your windows yourself. If you hire window cleaners, then you won't need to hire them as often.
-
Easier cleaning: If you do clean the windows yourself, then you will enjoy how easy it is to clean easy-clean glass. The coating will prevent residues from adhering to the surface so that any grime on your windows will wipe right off.
-
