Care & maintenance
To retain the value and guarantee the functionality of your Salamander windows, it is very important that you regularly maintain them, cleaning both glass and profile surfaces as well as maintaining the fittings. This will ensure that the elements have a long life.
Profile & seal care:
/// Regular cleaning of the outside and inside surfaces in addition to the rebate area
/// The “Fenosol” cleaning programme is available from your dealer for optimal window care. Use these special cleaners to make your windows really shine and also prevent them from getting dirty again thanks to their antistatic effect.
/// Use only standard mild household cleaners (such as washing up liquid) that contain no abrasive additives or solvents to clean the window profiles. Caution: never use nitro thinners or scouring powder!
/// Always rinse with clean water
/// Annual inspection of gaskets for damage and replacement by a specialist if required
/// Inspection and cleaning of gaskets to remove dust, pollen, etc.
/// Inspection of drainage systems (slots and holes) for consistency and careful cleaning of openings as required
Fitting maintenance:
/// Only let a specialist set up the fittings or install or remove the sashes of the window
/// Equip windows with high-quality fittings
/// Removal of contamination on the fitting using the Salamander cleaning and care set
/// Annually inspect all moving parts of the fittings for wear and use technical Vaseline to grease parts subject to wear, the locking pins and the hinges and corner fittings
/// Inspection of the fitting fastening screws, checking the striking plate for correct seating and careful tightening of the screws as required
