It all starts with the idea of water being the universal solvent- even more so when it is extremely pure.  That’s why we take local tap water (which naturally has many ions such as sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron etc which all are routinely found in our city’s tap water at relatively high concentrations) and filter the water so that only pure H20 molecules remain.  When water is found in this very pure state, it becomes a more aggressive cleaning agent due to its polarity and strong ionic bonds.  In a sense, it “feeds” or “searches” for the impurities such as found on the surface of the glass.  When we use this purified water in conjunction with a long poles with gentle scrub brushes on the end of the pole we can deliver highly purified water up to 4 stories high to clean the glass surface.  The process is essentially cleaning by dilution with extremely purified water and gentle brushes to agitate and loosen the dirt off of the glass. All that remains once the dirt is rinsed away is purified water which will evaporate without leaving any streaks, smears, or water spots.  Therefore, as long as what needs cleaning on the glass is water soluble, there will be no need for aggressive soaps, squeegees or detail rags. That’s the beauty of the system.

However, it’s not a perfect system, and your service provider ought to be able to recognize its limitations.  There are some windows that need further attention due to heavier stains or non-water soluble debris on the glass surface.  Some examples of this “heavy debris” are silicon, calcium deposits (from hard-water), paint overspray, and stucco and mortar from construction related projects.
