I was thinking about leaving the windows dry today after all the talk about it and decided that I really really want one. (well, maybe not their one, maybe my home made one, but you see what I mean). Has anyone else?

I was just thinking how much better it would come across, not that I have any problems, it would just be nice.

why waste your time drying windows, sorry i just don't think its worth it, more to worry about and less time in making lots of cash £££

It might not take much longer, you wouldn't have to rinse , that would be replaced by moving the sucker over the window in the same motion as the rinse? I'm just sure customers would love it. like I said, I don't have a problem with it and I've been wfp for over 2 years, I just like the idea. If it was slower, I wouldn't bother, but if it was more or less as quick, just think! People would love it no matter what you say about how good the results of normal wfp are.

Been thinking about this again, you don't have to recover all the water (unless you do insides which I wouldn't anyway) only the drops on the glass and frames, this is probably only a few percent of what you use as most drips and runs off almost immediately.

So an extra hose up the pole with a pressure washer attatchment would be enough that end, what about the other?

I know most of you think its stupid, but I've been taken with the idea of leaving the windows dry.

I think you hit the point when you said about the customers loving it.  Although a window dryer would be helpful on a limited number of jobs, I feel that its main function would be as customer eye candy.  That may be valid if a customer is alarmed about wet glass, its a job you really badly want and you won't get the job unless you leave the glass dry.  Otherwise I reckon its function would be limited.
Having said that, I am going to reserve judgement until I've seen it in action at the cleaning show.  If I judge something harshly before I've seen it working, that would make me as bad as my ex-customers who slagged off WFP before letting me get past the first clean or two.

I take your point, but more than just the customers loving it, I would love it.
I did two house inside today, and because of the sun, they were more or less dry. They were perfect. It's not the result, its the fact of leaving them dry I like. And to be honest, some people don't do wfp properly and people dump them, hence comments from some like 'there's loads of work to be had from people who don't like wfp'. This would totally eliminate that. Besides, it seems to be the natural progression.
