Cleaning And Laundry Tips
Refrigerator cleaning tips....
- If your vacuum cleaner hose attachment will not fit under your refrigerator to clean the condenser coils, try using a rubber band to hold an old sock or rag to the end of a yardstick. Slide the stick under the refrigerator to clean or brush off the condenser coils.
- Use warm water to clean the plastic and glass portions of your refrigerator. Hot water may cause them to break.
- Kill mildew and prevent it from returning by wiping down the walls and shelves with vinegar.
Range cleaning tips....
- To clean a "not so messy" oven, place a small bowl of ammonia on the top shelf and a bowl of boiling water on the bottom shelf of an cold oven. Leave them there overnight, then wipe clean in the morning.
- Baking soda is a safe, gentle abrasive. Pour onto a sponge and wipe.
- Clean the stovetop with white vinegar. Grease and grime disappear leaving it streak-free and shiny.
Dishwasher cleaning tips....
