Our aluminum alloy 6063 and 6061 tubes for facade cladding are generally low-maintenance. However, the exact maintenance requirements or intervals of the aluminum cladding can vary based on the environmental conditions. Frequent cleaning of the extruded aluminum tube cladding can maintain its aesthetic appeal and eliminate tough deposits. In some areas, the cladding may not need cleaning until after a couple of years. As you clean the aluminum tubes, avoid excessive rubbing and the use of aggressive detergents. The temperature of the water should neither be too hot nor too cold to prevent chemical reactions and poor cleaning.
