How much is the plastic you put over windows during the winter?

Poppy asked:


I’m renting a house and the house is terrible. I pay $475 a month for windows that are closed but you would never know it, box air conditioner that lets in cold air of course, and a door that wasn’t put in right that lets in more cold air. Our heating bill, as you can imagine, is outrageous.

How much is plastic that you put over windows? Can you buy something for the door frame?

How do i get masking tape off my windows?

muggzy_uk asked:


Hi there,

I used masking tape around my windows when i was painting (so no paint would get on the glass).

I left the tape on during the summer and now i cant get the tape off the window glass. When i try and pull it off most of it remains on there and is stuck solid. I have tried white spirit and lighter fuel and hot water but nothing will make it budge! any ideas?

How do window cleaning companies that use water fed poles with Deionized Water clean interior windows?

I am own a cleaning company, and we are looking into purchasing a water fed pole system with a Deionized Water rinse to clean windows. From what I see, the systems look awesome, and they look like they will save a lot of time, but what nobody says is how or if they can use the systems inside the building. It seems like it would not work. Do they just go back to the good old squeegee and soapy water?
