Cleaning the floor – not everyone likes to do that. Not only is it very time consuming to wipe all corners. Often it is also the case that cleaning the floor in many cases is automatically associated with back pain that occurs afterwards. And then there is the annoyance that usually arises after cleaning, namely, when unsightly streaks adorn the floor, especially if the floor was previously covered with stubborn dirt. Reason for back pain and a dirty way of working is usually the floor wiper , Especially today, where different floors are in a house or apartment, it is often difficult to get a suitable for all floors cleaning device for the floor. The reason is that the floor wiper developed different properties in terms of cleaning on the different floors. Even tiles in the bathroom are often cleaned differently – more or less thoroughly – than the tiles in the dining room or in the kitchen. And on a laminate or parquet, a wiper also knows other cleaning properties or cleaning intensities. Special cleaning equipment for the floor is also needed in office space, where the wiping conditions due to the many corners and edges of the cabinetsand desks or partitions are different again than in a private apartment. Here is a little buying advice. The general requirements for a wiper are well known: it should be robust and make cleaning easier and faster. And exactly today there are many new developments. The first wipers launched on the market in the mid-1950s are no longer comparable to today’s. There have been many new technical achievements, mainly because of the growing understanding of ergonomics.

The style has to be mobile

As floor wiper It used to be called a rag or a brush that you attached to a style and then pulled this device across the floor in the apartment. However, due to the rigidity of this style, wiping with this compound cleaner was rather bad than good and mostly anything but hygienic. In corners you can not get in with a rigid style and not under furniture such as dressers or the like bedthat stand on pedestals and under which you could actually wipe. When buying one floor wiper For this reason, make sure that it is very flexible. The modern devices have one or even more joints in style, which makes it very easy to move in all directions. And there, where the cloth is clamped, are also joints, which also allow to get into the smallest corners and the dirt under the bed or commodeto catch. And even if the wiper has only a corresponding joint at the bottom, it is still so flexible and pivotable that a thorough and therefore hygienic cleaning of the room is possible. The back-friendly and also the most thorough cleaning is the telescopeWiper. This has a long and very robust style, which can be adjusted to the required length. This means that small users do not have to stretch and do not bend over larger users in order to be able to clean the floor comfortably with the wiper. The style of a telescopic wiper is usually adjustable in several stages. A rotating wiper system, however, has a round base plate and the style has a double joint, which can be rotated by 360 °. The wiping is with such floor wiper particularly thorough, light and easy on the back, because the mop head always moves while wiping.

The right cleaning cover

But not only a rotating joint makes a good wiper for the floor. When choosing the optimal floor wiper, care should also be taken that there is also an effective cleaning cloth. Experts speak here of the cleaning reference. This has, because he takes the dirt from the ground, probably the most important task in cleaning. For this reason, the cleaning cover should also be able to absorb all kinds of contaminants that may be on the floor. Particularly suitable here are the materials cotton and microfiber. Both materials have the finest fibers, which can have a very small diameter. And the smaller this diameter is, the higher the fineness with which a floor wiper ultimately works, ie can wipe the floor. The finer the fibers of the cleaning cover, the better the dirt or liquid is absorbed by the floor. When selecting the floor wiper you should therefore pay attention to high-quality cleaning covers. Because cheap counterparts do not withstand many cleaning operations before the first signs of wear on the fibers occur. Another argument in favor of microfibre cleaning covers is that they not only have a high cleaning power, but can even remove grease and coarse dirt from the floor using only water. That is, it is in their use only a very small amount of cleaning agents needed. And that also spares the environment. Microfiber cleaning covers are particularly suitable for use on tiles. If you have mainly installed tiles on the floor in your apartment, then I should opt for a floor wiper with microfibre cleaning covers. Cotton cleaning covers, however, prove their high cleaning ability, especially on wooden floors. There are also floor wiper sets for which you can buy both microfibre and cotton cleaning covers. If you have laid both tiles and wooden floors in your apartment, you should opt for such a combination set. When buying, of course, to pay attention to the wiping width of a cleaning reference. However, most wiper systems here today have a standard size. Wipers for private use have a narrower wiping width than the systems that are mostly used in the commercial sector, ie for wiping office floors.

Mounting systems Cleaning cover and other features

Especially those who suffer from back pain during or after brushing, it is certainly good news that there are also wiper systems in which not only because of the sophisticated style bending over while brushing the past belongs. Because many also find the change or putting on the cleaning cover very difficult. Because then you have to squat pretty far normally. But there are also floor wiper systems in which the cleaning cover can be solved by means of a foot click at least. This can be done standing up. That means you only have to stoop once to clamp the cleaning reference. In addition, one can also make sure that there is a cleaning reference press for the system when buying a wiper mop bucketgives. The force required to express the water is then only minimal and here also eliminates the stooping, which is in many cases the cause of the back pain associated with the cleaning.

Conclusion

The floor wiper is a real cleaning aid. In the selection should be paid to several criteria. In addition to a robust, yet flexible style, it is also very important to pay attention to the right choice of cleaning cover. And this choice should be made mainly dependent on what kind of flooring you want to wipe with the floor wiper or must. Purchase criteria are accordingly the features and functionality of a wiper system and its handling, which should be correspondingly simple. And the cleaning result also plays a role.
