What Is The Best Temperature To Wash Windows?

As a general rule, it’s usually best to wash your outside windows during spring or fall. 

If you use the wrong cleaning solution for the time of year, winter’s chilly temperatures can result in freezing. Which can result in cracks and disaster.

Summer temperatures can bring their own issues, creating streaks as the sun makes the cleaning solution evaporate before you are even finished cleaning the window. 

No matter the season, it’s generally best to wash your windows on an overcast day or early in the morning when the sun is low in the sky. Even on a chilly day, if you clean windows when the window is in direct sunlight, the cleaning solution can evaporate faster than you expect and leave streaks in its wake. 

Spring is often a perfect time to clean exterior windows, as dirt and grime from falling leaves and winter storms may have built up and muddied your windows. The mild temperatures and sun of spring create ideal window-cleaning conditions

Obviously though, your windows can become dirty at any time of year. You may not want or be able to wait until spring and fall’s temperatures before cleaning your windows. Windows can and probably should still be cleaned at different times in the year, provided that you follow the appropriate processes for the current temperatures.
