Chandeliers have evolved into intricate and ornate decorations that are a staple of any luxury lobby, ballroom or hotel. While there are a seemingly endless number of designs, they all mostly rely on the same cleaning process. Cleaning businesses are asked to clean a variety of items, and among them are light fixtures in commercial buildings. Normally light fixtures are cleaned once a year or as needed.
Here’s how we clean large commercial chandelier fixtures.
The Chandelier Preparation Process
First, we make sure to gather all the necessary equipment, which includes:
- Ladders, scaffolding, or elevators as needed
- lint-free cloths
- a specialized cleaning solution that ensures no part of the chandelier rusts, smudges or stains and that also dries quickly to avoid attracting dust
For complex lighting fixtures, we often either make a drawing of how the chandelier is put together or take a photo so that everything can be put back in place after cleaning.
Finally, we make sure that the power to the chandelier lights is turned off for safety reasons.
The Cleaning Process
Each individual piece of glass or crystal is cleaned separately, which in most cases means taking down the entire chandelier and taking it apart piece by piece. We then carefully wipe each piece of the chandelier with our specialized cleaning solution and reassemble the chandelier exactly as it was before the cleaning began. We also replace chandelier lighting when necessary and often use lower wattage LED bulbs to save energy while maintaining current lighting levels.
Due to this complex process and the high risk of damage, it is recommended to use a professional experienced team of technicians such as those at Imperial Lighting to clean these large commercial chandeliers.
