Very true! I think its just a blag to put more money on them.

If you asking how to clean them... You just clean them like you would normal windows..

I haven't a clue how they clean there self tho ???

i have a few hoses which have this glass its supposed to repel the rain . but it dont work its just a selling point for window companys . and when theres a great dollop of bird s**t on the glass then thats when you find out it aint self cleaning .

As said, chemical on the glass to repel.

Looked at a conservatory the other day with this glass.............3 months old and showing signs
of algi growth.

Clean with pur water so they cannot come back on you if there is a complaint to the window company.

You would be there 1st escape goat.
