1. A method for use of a gravity-fed cleaning system with replaceable cleaning fluid reservoir, the method comprising:
- obtaining a handle portion having;
a proximal end;
a distal end; and
a housing, the housing adapted to receive a replaceable cleaning fluid reservoir;
obtaining a cleaning head portion with;
mechanical apparatus for attaching a cleaning pad to the head portion; and
a nozzle with a plurality of orifices, the nozzle mounted to the head portion;
coupling the cleaning head portion to the handle portion with a yoke section;
inserting a replaceable cleaning fluid reservoir into the housing; and
fluidically coupling the cleaning fluid reservoir to the nozzle such that cleaning fluid is allowed to flow via gravity through the nozzle in a plurality of individual streams onto the surface to be cleaned in front of the cleaning head portion.

Abstract
A method for cleaning a surface using a tool with both a cleaning head and a cleaning fluid reservoir housing coupled to an elongated handle, the method comprising the following steps: attaching a cleaning pad to the cleaning head; inserting a replaceable cleaning fluid reservoir into the housing; fluidically coupling the cleaning fluid reservoir to the cleaning head; dispensing controlled amounts of cleaning fluid from the reservoir onto a surface; and distributing the cleaning fluid evenly over the surface with the cleaning pad.
