What surfaces can you use The Comb on?
The Comb easily removes pine needles, leaves, and other small debris
from screens and home. You can even use The
Comb
to clean up your yard
and landscape areas that have become unpleasant.
How
does the The Comb Work?
Screens
- Once
you have attached the The Comb to your pole you will simply
start at
the middle and work your way towards you. Slowly and smoothly slide the The
Comb attached to the pole out to the middle. Once it is out there,
you can pull towards you guiding the The
Comb over the needles and
debris. Do not comb over any holes, or use on screen that is worn and in
need of repair. You may have to adjust the angle of the The
Comb until
you find the best angle. It is best to do all of the middle from your
position first then adjust the pole to a shorter length (extendable
Poles) and finish the
area immediately in front of you. You will then continue working your way
around the enclosure until finished.
Home
- Use The Comb like a soft rake dragging it smoothly over
shingles and tiles to remove debris and snow. Don't let leaves, dirt,
and branches sit on top of your home and cause rotting and major repair
or replacement costs.
Landscaping
- The Comb
is more then an ordinary garden rake. The Comb
cleans up a
yard with less effort and because of it's unique design and adjustable
angles, The Comb is great for getting into those hard to
reach areas near fencing and bushes where a ordinary rake cant reach.
What
is the The Comb made out of?
Polypropylene.
A durable plastic that allows for flexibility while maintaining the shape of the
The Comb.
Will
the The Comb attach to my pole?
Yes,
The Comb fits on any
pole that has a threaded end or the two button snap attachment. You can
buy these types of poles at home
improvement stores like Home Depot, Lowe's, Wal-Mart and
Pinch-A-Penny.
Can
you use the The Comb from the outside or the inside of the enclosure?
It
really must be used on the outside in order to reduce the risk of
damaging your screen. Logically most of the debris found on the outside
is there because the screen did it's job and stop the debris from coming
into your living area.
Will
The Comb
hurt my screen?
The Comb was tested by using the standard fiberglass screen. The
screen was combed in the same area over 300 times. There was no noticeable
damage to the screen at all. At 4 times a year for 20 years you would
have combed your screen 80 times. Most likely your screen will need to
be replaced due to age by then.
I
have the real short needles, how does it work on them?
The
sand pine or fir needles usually go almost through the hole of your
screen. Within days they get dried and brittle. The The
Comb has a dual
action side with one side made for the pine needles and the straight edge with notches across the
length for short needles. Both sides can be used for other types of
debris. You
can use the The Comb from the inside or outside with these thin short
needles. Just simply and smoothly comb over them and the heads will
break off causing the needle to fall through. We recommend you lay
painters plastic down to reduce clean up of needles from the pool or
porch area.
How
long does it take to clean a screen?
Average
1500 sq. ft. in most conditions is less than one hour.
How
often does it have to be done?
Once you have done the initial cleaning, you will perform periodic
cleaning based on your own preference. We recommend at least four times a year. This way you can easily
clean off your screens before they build up with debris and possibly get
damaged from sap.
