At Prime Auto Glass, we understand that windshield installation is more than just replacing a piece of glass. It’s a critical process that affects the safety of your vehicle and its occupants. That’s why in Utah, where driving conditions can range from the busy streets of Salt Lake City to the challenging mountain roads, we pride ourselves on adhering to strict protocols that prioritize safety, cleanliness, and precision in every installation. This blog will show you “The Prime Auto Glass Difference” and how our protocols set us apart.
The Importance of Strict Protocols
An improperly installed windshield can compromise the vehicle’s structural integrity, affect the proper deployment of airbags, and ultimately endanger the occupants. At Prime Auto Glass, our protocols are designed to minimize these risks and ensure that every installation meets or exceeds industry standards.
Our Windshield Installation Protocols at Prime Auto Glass
Here are the key elements of our windshield installation protocols in Utah:
- Rigorous Disinfection:
- Before starting any installation, we thoroughly disinfect the work area and all tools to prevent contamination. This is especially important inside your vehicle.
- We use approved cleaners and disinfectants that are safe for vehicle surfaces.
- Detailed Vehicle Preparation:
- We protect your vehicle’s interior and exterior with covers and protectors to prevent scratches and damage during the installation process.
