The mode of operation
A window cleaning robot creates a negative pressure so that it can hold itself on the glass pane. A power supply is required for this. The device should be battery-operated so that no cable is in the way. Window cleaning robots work with either round or square wiping surfaces. Units with a round wiping surface run over the glass in a wave form, while the wiping surfaces circle around each other.

This works well. However, the corners cannot be cleaned with it, so that manual reworking is necessary. The price is relatively low. Window cleaning robots with a square wiping surface run in parallel paths across the window. When they reach the edge of the window, they change direction and clean the next lane. The wiping result is good, as the corners are also reached. The purchase costs are higher.

The accessories
Window cleaning robots are equipped with everything you need for spring cleaning of windows! Included are the power cable or the cable for charging the battery, a fuse holder with rope and possibly a remote control. Washable microfibre pads are included, but must be replaced as soon as the cleaning result gets worse. It is advisable to keep a small supply.

The application
Cleaning windows with a robot is easy. First you have to moisten the microfibre pads a little bit and attach them or fill up the tank with cleaning agent. The robot can be placed on the lower left corner and switched on. The device needs two seconds to create a negative pressure. Then it starts working and you have free time.

An acoustic signal tells you when the robot has finished its work. After switching off, it can be detached from the glass. After cleaning the windows, check if the windows are cleaned to your satisfaction. If necessary, you can clean the corners with a microfibre cloth. Be sure to read the operating instructions before using the device for the first time! There may be differences depending on the appliance.
