HOW TO USE LOUVRE GUN
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
The XPRT Louvre Gun is designed to rinse louvre windows quickly and cleanly using pure water. Here’s how to get perfect results every time.
🔧 Step 1: Set Up and Prepare the Area
• Attach an 8mm hose to the base of the louvre gun.
• Check the connection is tight, no leaks.
• Test water flow away from the work area to check pressure.
• Place towels or drop sheets under the louvres to catch drips.
💡 Pressure Tip: Hold down the trigger and point the tip upward. If water bubbles gently out the top, you’re good. If it spurts high, the pressure is too strong - turn it down.
.🌊 Pure Water Note: For spotless glass, make sure your TDS meter reads 000 ppm.
⚠️ Initial Burst Warning: Every time you stop the flow, pressure builds up. When restarting, be ready for a quick burst of water.
🧽 Step 2: Wash the Louvres
• Use a wet XPRT Louvre Mop to scrub 3-4 panels at a time.
• Don’t overdo it - too many panels means water dries too fast and leaves cloudy marks.
💦 Step 3: Rinse Properly with the Louvre Gun
• Start rinsing at the top centre of each blade, working from top to bottom.
• Slide the nozzle side-to-side, ensuring water flows across the entire glass surface.
• Leave the louvres slightly open, so they are as vertical as possible (to allow gravity to dry them) but not touching (to allow air flow while they dry).
🧠 Reminders
• 💦 Test the spray before aiming at glass – expect a strong burst.
• 🔁 Small sections = better results – rinse only 3-4 panels at a time.
• ✨ Rinse thoroughly – for a clean, streak-free finish.
HOW TO USE LOUVRE MOP
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
The Louvre mop is an purpose-built tool designed to clean louvre windows safely and efficiently.
🔍 Step 1: Inspect the Pad Before Use
-
Gently run your fingers across the microfiber cleaning pad to check for any grit, sand, or sharp debris.
-
Particles trapped in the fibers can scratch glass, especially on tinted or coated louvres.
-
Replace or clean the pad if it feels rough or visibly dirty.
-
💧 Step 2: Prepare the Louvre Mop
-
Wet the microfibre pad with clean water before use — a quick dip in a bucket or spray is all it needs.
-
Only add a small amount of detergent if the glass is especially dirty or greasy.
-
💡 Less soap = less rinsing = cleaner results.
🧼 Step 3: Clean the Louvre Panels
-
Wash 3-4 louvre blades at a time by wiping back and forth several times.
-
Be sure to clean the small blade holders at the ends of each panel.
-
If needed, also wipe down the surrounding window frames.
-
💡 Work from top to bottom.
🚿 Step 4: Clean the Pad After Use
-
Rinse the microfiber pad thoroughly in water to flush out dirt.
-
To keep your microfiber working at full performance, give it a machine wash occasionally:
-
Peel the pad off the aluminium frame by pulling one end firmly.
-
Wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent.
-
❌ Do not use fabric softeners — they reduce microfiber effectiveness.
-
✅ Air dry only — avoid tumble drying.
-
-
Reattaching the microfiber can be tricky because the Velcro grips tightly.
-
Use a folded piece of plastic (e.g. an old loyalty card) to cover the Velcro strip while sliding the pad on.
-
Once aligned, slide the plastic out — the pad will snap into place.
-
🧠 Reminders
-
✋ Always check the pad for debris before use
-
🧴 Use just a little or no detergent to avoid extra rinsing
-
♻️ Machine wash regularly — no fabric softener
-
✅ Store dry, and out of direct sun to prolong microfiber life
HOW TO USE XPRT GRIP CLIP
Step 1
Step 2
The XPRT Grip Clip - Long is a quick, no-fuss way to secure your ladder to a gutter and work with confidence.
🪜 Step 1. Position Your Ladder
-
Place your ladder so it rest on the gutter (Safe Work Australia recommends the ladder extends at least 1 meter above the edge of gutter or roof).
-
Ensure the ladder feet are stable and the ladder is at a safe climbing angle (about 75° or 1:4).
🔗 Step 2. Attach the XPRT Grip Clip
-
Climb the ladder and once the front lip of the gutter is in reach, open the spring-loaded clip and close it over the gutter edge which is just outside the ladder.
-
Stretch the elastic cord across to the other side of the ladder. To avoid tripping, wrap the cord once around the ladder rung just above the gutter.
-
Clip the second clamp to the gutter on the other side of the ladder. The built-in tension helps stabilise the ladder and reduce unwanted movement, especially sideways slipping or tipping back.
🧪 Independently lab-tested by LMATS (NATA-accredited) for sideways and outward force. Full results available.
🧼 3. Remove and Store
-
To remove, simply unclip both sides.
-
Clip it to your belt, tool bag, or shirt collar for hands-free carrying, or wear it around your neck using the elastic cord like a lanyard.
🧠 Key Reminders
-
🧲 Always check clips and cord is in good condition before each use
-
🔄 Replace the cord if there is visible wear
-
⚠️ Not designed for use with weak gutters
-
⚠️ Grip Clip helps reduce movement, but doesn’t replace safe ladder setup or common sense
