Definitions
- the present invention relates to an apparatus and a method for cleaning elevated structures such as residential house roofs.
- roofs on residential houses get covered by organic matter, such as algae, which affect the appearance of the houses negatively. Further, the organic matter can accelerate the natural deterioration of the roof, leading to an increased need for roof maintenance and ultimately a costly roof replacement. Roof problems associated with organic matter typically occur in areas with high amounts of rain and warm winters and cold summers. Attempts to remove organic matter from a residential house roof include mechanical cleaning relying on brooms or brushes or a high pressure water jet to forcefully remove the organic matter, and chemical cleaning where an appropriate detergent, typically mixed with water, is applied to the roof. Mechanical cleaning, using brooms or brushes or other tools which mechanically contact the roof, may lead to damage to the roof if used too forcefully.
- cleaning using only a high pressure water jet may also damage the roof due to the high pressure needed.
- a combination of a high pressure water and a detergent is therefore preferred as this reduces the risk of damaging the roof.
- the cleaning, whether mechanical or chemical, should be performable without the need for a person standing on the roof or on a ladder, i.e. preferably the cleaning should be performable by a person standing on the ground as this reduces the risk of injuries.
- an eaves trough cleaner For use with a standard garden hose an eaves trough cleaner is known from US5725322 , the eaves trough cleaner comprising a fluid flow mechanism with an intermediate portion provided between a top end and bottom end, wherein a cross tubing is provided in the intermediate portion whereby a cleaning solution can be added via a turn valve to the water passing through the eaves trough cleaner.
- a readily available source of high pressurized water for use by a consumer cleaning a residential roof is a consumer high pressure cleaner.
- An object of the present invention is to simplify and rationalize chemical cleaning of residential roofs.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning apparatus which is usable together with a consumer high pressure cleaner by a consumer standing on the ground.
- a yet further object of the present invention is to provide a cleaning apparatus capable of supplying a detergent solution to a residential roof in an effective mixture.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a method for applying a detergent solution to a residential roof.
- the elevated surface may be a surface on a residential house or other low rise building such as a wall, roof, window, the surfaces of a rain gutter, the surfaces of a chimney, but preferably a roof of a residential house.
- the elevated surface could also be a surface on a bridge, a surface on a crane, a surface on a wind turbine, a surface on a vehicle etc.
- the elevated surface is typically 2-16 m above the user's feet.
- the high pressure cleaner according to the first aspect of the present invention may be adapted to supply the fluid to the gun at high pressure.
- a high concentration, such as 10%, of detergent in the fluid may be reached
- the gun according to the first aspect of the present invention may be in fluid communication with the high pressure cleaner via a high pressure hose.

- the injector according to the first aspect of the present invention may be a based on the Venturi effect.
- the injector may be enclosed in the gun or may alternatively be attached to the gun or may alternatively be provided at the gun such as on the high pressure hose or in a fitting fluidly connecting the high pressure hose to the gun.
- the flexible hose according to the first aspect of the present invention may be in fluid communication with the gun.
- the flexible hose may be bendable, but may also be stretchable.
- the outer tube is a telescopic tube. This is advantageous as it allows the cleaning apparatus to be more easily transportable and storageable while still allowing elevated surfaces to be reached for cleaning.
- the telescopic tube may include co-axial tube sections joined by locking mechanisms.
- the cleaning apparatus further comprises a valve provided in, or at, said gun, the valve being adapted to regulate the supply of the detergent to the injector.
- a valve provided in, or at, said gun, the valve being adapted to regulate the supply of the detergent to the injector.
- the valve according to the first aspect of the present invention may be actuable by the user of the cleaning apparatus without interrupting cleaning.
- the valve may be enclosed in the gun or may alternatively be attached to the gun or may alternatively be provided at the gun such as on the hose supplying detergent from the detergent container or in a fitting fluidly connecting the hose from the detergent container to the gun.
- the valve may be a ball valve, a globe valve or a needle valve etc, but any valve may be used provided that it allows a regulation of the supply of the detergent to the injector. It is preferred that the valve allows stepless regulation, but the valve may also be an on-off valve.
- the gun further includes a main valve actuable by the trigger for interrupting the flow of the fluid and the injector is provided downstream of the main valve.
- the injector is protected from the high pressure arising when the main valve is closed. This is advantageous as it lessens the risk of leaks in the injector and allows the injector to be constructed out of less expensive materials.
- the elevated surface is a roof of a house and the cleaning apparatus is adapted to allow a user standing on the ground adjacent the house to clean the roof. By standing on the ground the safety for the user is increased.
- the high pressure cleaner is a conventional consumer high pressure cleaner.
- conventional consumer high pressure cleaner is to be understood as comprising high pressure cleaners delivering a fluid at a maximum pressure below 200 bar.
- the trigger of the gun is lockable when triggered. This allows the user to adjust his grip of the gun to actuate the valve to regulate the detergent supply without interrupting cleaning.
- the outer tube is may be a telescopic tube having a fully extended length of at least 2 m, such as least 3 m, preferably at least 5 m. This is advantageous as it allows the user to clean the roof of most residential homes.
- the outer tube may be a telescopic tube comprising a plurality of co-axial tube sections joined by locking mechanisms, each of the plurality of tube sections being independently lockable in relation to an adjacent tube section.
- the cleaning apparatus further comprises a support structure adapted to support the outer tube. This simplifies the handling of the cleaning apparatus for the user.
- the support structure may have a first part for supporting the outer tube and a second part being supported by the ground on which the user stands, or by an additional user of the cleaning apparatus.
- the support structure includes a tripod or a monopod.
- the support structure may be telescopic.

- the support structure may include, at the nozzle, a wheel being rollable on, or a runner being slideable over, the elevated surface to support the outer tube by supporting the nozzle on the elevated surface.
- the cleaning apparatus may further comprise a counterweight attached to the gun or the outer tube to counter balance the weight of the outer tube and/or the thrust from the nozzle.
- the flexible hose is a low pressure hose.
- low pressure hose is to be understood as a hose having a maximum pressure limit before failure which is less than the pressure limit before failure of the high pressure hose establishing fluid communication between the high pressure cleaner and the gun.
- the flexible hose may be downstream of the main valve whereby the high pressures which arise when the main valve is closed are not present in the flexible hose.
- the flexible hose may have a larger flow area than the high pressure hose.
- the valve is selectively actuable to allow the detergent to be injected into the fluid at a rate adapted to achieve a concentration in the range from 0% to at least 10% detergent in the fluid.
- the cleaning apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention allows various cleaning requiring various concentrations of detergent. This also allows various types of detergents, requiring various dilutions, to be used. Further, when the concentration of detergent in the fluid is zero percent, the cleaning apparatus may be used to rinse off the elevated surface.
- the detergent is benzalkoniumchloride and the fluid is water.
- benzalkoniumchloride is an effective detergent for cleaning an elevated surface, in particular removing organic deposits from a roof.
- the nozzle is angleable and/or produces a pencil jet.
- the handling of the cleaning apparatus may be simplified as the thrust from the nozzle may be directed to counteract the weight of the outer tube.
- a method for cleaning the roof of a residential house by a user standing on the ground adjacent the house in accordance with claim 11 comprising the steps of:
- the cleaning of the roof may comprise the removal of organic deposits selected from the group comprising algae, lichen, mold and moss, or combinations thereof, from the roof.
- the cleaning apparatus has the advantage that it allows a user, while standing on the ground, to apply an effective concentration of detergent to an elevated surface such as a residential roof using a normal consumer high pressure cleaner as source of pressurized water, without the risk of falling down from the roof, thus increasing the safety of cleaning.
- the user may easily, and without interrupting cleaning by letting go of the gun, adjust the concentration of detergent for different types of roofs, different types of detergents and/or different types to be performed, thus simplifying and rationalizing the cleaning.
