Why All London Window Washers Must Recycle Rain Water And Use It For Sustainability

by Jason Latham on 2010/02/09

Large metropolitan areas such as London house a huge amount of office buildings, hotels, historical buildings, apartments, private homes and even palaces, and all of these buildings have windows.

While cleaning windows offers a wide scope of opportunity to people to earn a living in a city this size, all the water used may in the future contribute to sustainability issues. Save water, save money and do your bit to save the planet by using water collected by connecting a rain butt to your gutter system. Rainwater is chemical free as well as free of charge and no-one can stop anyone from collecting it. How many things can you say this about today?

Rain water is also far more pure than tap water with an average of only 004 parts per million impurities, compare that to London tap water with nearly 400 parts per million of impurities. For window cleaners using the water fed pole method the use of rain water is not only better for the environment but it also means that the purification process is made easier and any filters will last far far longer.

Not only does using recycled rainwater provide window cleaners with a free essential cleaning product (how many things are free these days?) it also assists with keeping city supplies more sustainable, by being eco friendly.

A 2 000 sq ft roof of a building is able to collect 1 000 gallons of rainwater in run-off, give or take a few for evaporation. A inch rainfall is able to completely fill a 50 ' 55 gallon rain butt! Think of how many half inches of rainfall London gets and do the maths. It couldn't be a more logical decision than to collect your own water supplies for free.

But think even further, and think of the savings on your water bill at the end of the month!

Window leaning is not an easy job, it is hard work, so the work ethic is there, why be lazy about water supplies? Get some more very valuable extra cash down on your bottom line by using a rain butt, the entire roof of your home is a giant water funnel, all you have to do is channel it for collection.

For people living in Barnet, Brent, Ealing, Camden, Hackney or anywhere else in North London, window cleaners north London will be at your service. Do your research on window cleaners North London so you can get your windows of your home, offices or business cleaned the correct way.
