Are Robot Window Cleaners Safe? Hobot Safety, Explained

Yes — when used correctly, Hobot robots are designed to be safe on vertical glass. Each model includes a safety rope, vacuum adhesion with active pressure control, and a UPS backup that stays attached for minutes during a power cut.

Set-Up the Right Way

1. Always anchor the safety rope before starting.
2. Check pads, power lead and rope for wear.
3. Place the robot on the glass, then start via app or remote.

For extra reassurance, consider the Hobot S7 Pro if you clean large, elevated panes often. For everyday setups, the 2S and R3 offer excellent safety with simple controls.
