Windows are an integral part of your house they do not only provide you with an outside view, but also give outsiders and passerby a glimpse of your lifestyle. If this view is blocked by dust and dirt then you are not only staying unaware of the nature’s beauty, but are also portraying a lazy home owner image in the neighborhood.
To make things easier for you here is a complete guide on jalousie window cleaning.
Avoid On The Spot Cleaning

Assess Before You Clean
Before you begin the ultimate cleaning process determine the health of your window. See if any screws are loose or glass broken. If a part is lose or out of place then it can cause damage to the window pain and yourself during the window panel detachment process. If necessary apply lubricant to the window mechanism to facilitate movement.
