Living in Australia you become all too familiar with extreme weather changes, strong winds and pest infestations that are all too common and hard to run from. Because of this, Crimsafe screens are a great choice in almost all homes across the country as they are built to withstand and combat the extremes we see in Australia.
When you do install Crimsafe, to ensure they keep your family safe for years to come, you do need to keep the mesh doors and windows clean. This keeps them in top-notch quality and allows them to do their job – protecting your home, your belongings and your family.
So what’s the best way to clean your Crimsafe screens?
To properly clean your removable fly screens, use a soft bristle brush and soapy water to remove the dust and dirt. For fixed Crimsafe screens, gently dampen a cloth with soap and water before wiping the screen with it. Be sure to take proper care when cleaning, as this will help maintain air flow and ensure longer life span for your Crimsafe screens.
Dust and Grime Removal is Important
Regular maintenance and dust removal are important for the durability of your Crimsafe screen doors and windows. Regular cleaning also helps you keep away from dust-borne allergies.
