Kärcher WV 6 Premium Window Vac

Product Information

A window vac is suctioning up all the dirty water or liquid from a spill into a tank connected to its body. The last thing you want to deal with is an overflowing mess of dirty water in the middle of cleaning your windows.

This extension set is a great accessory to any Katcher window vac, and can be used with every model from Karcher. It works by attaching to the handle so you can extend your reach. The set allows you to reach 1.5 metres further, making it easy to clean under furniture or to wipe high-rise windows. If you have any sorely neglected skylights, the extension set may be perfect for you. The water tank, which holds 150ml of dirty water, is also easily removed for emptying. Since dirty water takes some time to accumulate, you won't have the hassle of frequent emptying. Most window vacs weigh about .5 to .7 kg with an empty water tank. If you’ve got high windows or hard-to-reach areas to clean, a lighter model may be a better option for you to give your arms a break during the cleaning process. Cleaning Extras I’ve only had the vacuum for three weeks, so time will tell if it’ll make a difference, but so far so good. Kärcher window vac: Our verdict I had high hopes for the Karcher Window Vac WV 6's cleaning performance. I live in an old house with high ceilings and, therefore, have numerous tall windows to clean.Spurred on by the success on my bathroom tiles, I turned my attention to the shower screen – which was in a pretty dire state. Although we have a squeegee sitting on the tiles for use after each shower, we seldom use it – which results in a buildup of limescale on the shower screen.

Unlike the previous two options, this window vac doesn’t come with a cleaning kit. You’ll need to use your own spray bottle, detergent, and cloth instead of using the included window cleaning concentrate. But if you already have window cleaning supplies, that’s not a huge loss. Having added the cleaning concentrate to the spray bottle with 150ml of water, my first cleaning job with the Karcher Window Vac WV 6 Premium was the three- window bay in my front room. Weight and capacity: A kilo may not feel like much at first, but after half an hour of holding the unit at arm’s length it will start to hurt – especially when it fills up with 300ml or so of dirty water. The bigger the tank, the more cleaning you can do without having to stop and empty it, but the heavier it will get. So, tank size is less important than leak-proofing and easy emptying. What extra features and accessories are worth having?The WV 6 Premium is the most advanced of Karcher’s window vac offerings. It has more features and better cleaning power than the other window vacs. As such, it also has the highest price, although it’s still affordable. The WV 1 is the most affordable window vac option. Like the others, it comes with a three-year warranty when you buy directly from Karcher, and a two-year warranty when you don’t.
