Maintenance Guide

Simple steps to maintain the beauty and performance of your glass structures

Glass Cleaning

Regular cleaning keeps your glass looking crystal clear and maintains optimal light transmission:

  • Use a soft, lint-free cloth or microfiber towel
  • Clean with a solution of warm water and mild dish soap
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals
  • Clean both interior and exterior surfaces regularly
  • Dry with a clean, soft cloth to prevent streaks

Pro Tip

Clean glass on a cloudy day to prevent streaks from quick-drying in direct sunlight.

Frame Maintenance

Proper frame care ensures longevity and weather resistance:

  • Wipe frames with a damp cloth monthly
  • Check for any signs of damage or wear
  • Lubricate moving parts (hinges, locks) annually
  • Inspect seals and gaskets for deterioration
  • Remove debris from drainage channels

Seal and Weatherproofing

Maintain the integrity of your weatherproofing system:

  • Inspect seals every 6 months for cracks or gaps
  • Check for water leaks after heavy rain
  • Ensure drainage systems are clear of debris
  • Replace damaged seals promptly
  • Monitor condensation levels

Warning

If you notice persistent condensation between glass panes, contact our support team immediately as this may indicate seal failure.

Different seasons require different maintenance approaches:

Spring & Summer

  • Deep clean all glass surfaces

  • Check ventilation systems
  • Clean and lubricate moving parts

Fall & Winter

  • Remove leaves and debris from frames
