Cleaning Appliances:
Keep your household appliances clean to keep them from breaking down.
Start by cleaning your washing machine. First, clean out the area
underneath the lid with a damp cloth. If your bleach-dispenser cup
is removable, take it out to clean it. Otherwise, clean it as deeply
as you can, you may want to use a pipe cleaner. Clean the molded
area of the washing machine door with a toothbrush. Slide out your
washing machine from time to time and sweep & mop under it. Remove
any trapped missing socks etc from behind it to keep the unit cool.
Always clean the lint filter on your dryer before drying a load of
clothes. If the filter is full, it'll take longer to dry your
clothes and use more energy. If lint gets stuck on the filter, wash
it off with soap and water. Fabric softener often builds up on the
screen give it a good scrub once in a while to allow good air flow
through it. If the exhaust hose on your dryer fills up with lint,
clean or replace it. Slide out the dryer and remove the hose. Take
it outside for a good dusting or run the shop vac through it. Before
you put the hose back on take a second to vacuum out the connection
for the hose to both the dryer and the exhaust hole it connects to.
Is your exhaust hose destroyed with holes or cracked? Until you have
a chance to replace it use an old nylon to collect the exhaust by
tying it to the connector on the back of the dryer.
You can conserve energy by keeping the coils on your refrigerator
clean. On older models the coils are in back, on newer models the
coils are underneath the refrigerator. Clean the outside of your
refrigerator with a mild solution of ammonia and water. If the seal
around the door is less than perfect apply a very thin coat of
petroleum jelly to the area of the seal connects to. This will help
ensure a tight seal around the doors.
Clean the exterior of your stove with soap and water. Clean the
interior with an oven cleaner.
Television screens generate a lot of static electricity, which
attracts dust. You can reduce the static on your TV screen by wiping
it with a fabric-softener sheet.
Keep your computer keyboard in good working order by cleaning it
with canned air. Canned air is also good for cleaning stereo
components and other electronics.
