cleaning trickle vents on upvc windows

Nov 03, 2008 5 Replies

its now too cold to open the top smaller windows to the latch position to help airflow/avoid condensation, but luckily ive got trickle vents which are open now. i just wondered how best to clean them and ensure they are not blocked?


EricP coughed up some electrons that declared:

I've sucked mine clear with a hoover before and that did the trick.

Take them apart, clean them and refit - job done!

Squirt of compressed air. A bicycle pump might give you sufficient compression.
