Sprinkler Systems and Window Damage
Many Alexandria, Minnesota homes rely on sprinkler systems to maintain lush, green lawns throughout the summer. However, sprinkler water hitting your windows is one of the leading causes of hard water stains and mineral deposits that can permanently damage glass.
How Sprinklers Damage Windows
Alexandria’s well water is high in minerals like calcium and magnesium. When sprinkler water repeatedly hits your windows and evaporates, these minerals are left behind on the glass surface. Over time, the buildup bonds to the glass and becomes extremely difficult to remove.
Prevention Strategies
Adjust your sprinkler heads so they do not spray directly on windows. Install drip irrigation for flower beds near windows instead of overhead sprinklers. Have a professional check your irrigation system annually for misaligned heads. And schedule regular professional window cleaning to remove mineral deposits before they become permanent.
