I do not like to say, but it is almost time for spring cleaning. My wife is already running to gather their tools and cleaning equipment in anticipation. This year we decided to try to help a little, a little lighter and / or make the process even more to do some of these tasks.
After an inspection of the houses, often find a clean building, then suddenly he discovers that a particular area is a mess and not cleaned. I do not think this is due to negligence, but the occupant does not know what to do.
So here are some cleaning tips in no particular order, and some places that have not thought before cleaning it.
Clean Air
What people do not think about is the state of the living conditions inside the house to its closed state throughout the winter. The air in your home is contaminated by moisture, dust, animal hair and once you clean up this move. In spring cleaning its doors and windows for fresh air must not only open, but you can air your clean environment by the gas fan heater for operation continuously rotate for a certain period. This is done by doing the switch on the thermostat to "auto" to "on". I was there for years to its customers in the furnace fan ran constantly, because other people in the house smoked a lot and could not stand the smell. One of the secrets is to have a clean filter, and let the fan run after another thorough cleaning is done.
fridge
When was the last time you sucked refrigerator coils? Usually found it in the back of the device, however, are smaller at the bottom. Sometimes they are difficult to access and have to remove a cap, but the accumulated dust and dirt on the rollers make it less effective, so that they work for a long time and cause premature failure. Get your vacuum cleaner into an opening in the back and let all the debris, can be achieved suck.
taps
I would say that about 50 percent of the time limit found in tap water, which is not a plumbing problem, but rather the filter at the end of your faucet is dirty. The removal of these is sometimes a little difficult, and you can have a set of pliers and a cloth scratching, avoid the area if you remove the filter.
high cleaning
Here's a good one. When was the last time you cleaned your ceiling fan or receive these cobwebs in the upper corners of the room? The reason why these areas are neglected because they are difficult to reach. I saw a house where they put a long piece of PVC pipe plumbing at the end of the suction hose and then reach these areas easily. PVC pipes is inexpensive, comes in various sizes and with connecting parts that can temporarily bind size to another. Is it a good idea, or what?
Spray Pressure Washer
or you know someone spray with a pressure washer? These units are worth every penny. They make it possible to clean the dirty layer wooden platform or the surface of the porch, board the garage floor stained, gutters, driveways, sidewalks, etc. All of these areas are often intact, because people do not know how to approach them. Once you use a high-pressure cleaner, you will never be without a new.
plush
Speaking of fluff. It is very common to find in the house. But did you know that it is considered a fire hazard would have thought? What it is flammable and is a particular concern for dry or near or around the boiler or hot water tank vents. Honestly, when was the last time you cleaned the dryer? They are often filled with fluff and this material tends to accumulate in the leaves or ventilation pipes corrugated plastic, we have used for years. That's why we recommend ventilation tubes, the smooth metal fluff can be easily dissipated. I have to say that 90 percent of all households lint hanging from the ceiling in attics, basements and cellars inspect. Get rid of it. There is a risk.
Furniture care
I recently found an interesting article on surfaces of furniture to clean. The problem is that we have time to clean and so difficult to apply again and many layers composed of different solutions to the next layer. Well, good fuel, which is also known as paint thinner, take all the layers previously applied cleaning table, counters, cabinets. They will be allowed to return to their original state so that they are freshly polished.
Sump basket
Is your home a basket sink? If so, when was the last time you looked at him? It is rare, dead mice, ping pong balls, to find traces of soil, etc., floating inside. It is not only the health, but you can connect to your pump, you do not make the system functional and can even allow to flood your basement in bad weather. Get the debris and rinse the area with cold water bucket or hose and pump. You can add cool a few drops of liquid dish.
dust porch
I have a large porch with large porch furniture that is sensitive to dust, passing vehicles, etc., I find it difficult to clean the pillows. I recently discovered a way to make this task easier. With a tennis racket. He objects dust and other particles hit and stains should be treated.
Veranda and Terrace
I will not make you laugh, but when was the last time you cleaned your porch or under cover? It is amazing how often these areas are small creatures that live there, hanging fluff everywhere, the cultivation of rare plants, etc. These areas should be updated from time to time. After removal of large objects, you might want to consider standing water with a vacuum or under pressure. While you are there, make sure you away from home, the pitch level, not dug from the animals and they should preferably a plastic sheet on the ground must Waterlogged soil and possible leaks Tunnel avoid water in the cellar.
Drain - smell
I know that it is not normal to go and clean all drains, but the concern here is that some of these outflows are not used tend to allow water into the case, including dry. When this happens, it can allow a stinking cesspool gas backup in the house. I have an old decorative foot tub is rarely used. From time to time I can get into the bath, and I know I have to get a certain return water into the drain. This condition is more common, wash tubs and decorative sanitation underused unused in floor drains in the basement. Just turn on the water for a few seconds, and the smell will disappear.
Spray silicone - Lubricants
A product to help clean areas is small spray lubricant. I personally like silicone spray, because it colorless, odorless and dry, without greasy residue. This product is ideal for cleaning door locks, hinges, springs for garage doors and drawers. It is also great on the slopes of the window. When using this product, do not be without him.
window
Speaking of windows, it is common to have all friendly during the period of spring cleaning, but do not forget to clean these small drainage holes in the bottom rail. Let the rain water flows. It is common, collected in the bottom rail, strain at the corners of the track then disabled to find during heavy rain water where it meets the horizontal portions and within its walls. This is obviously not good.
Is your home holes basement windows has? Again, these areas often need attention. You need to clean dirt, leaves and branches. They should be about 8 inches to 16 inches filtration washed stone to allow any water to drain through the bottom of the well has collected (as opposed to the opposite collection and then through the window).
compressed air
If you can cause a lubricant spray box bring an aerosol compressed air. This product is ideal for cleaning telephones, computer keyboards, locks and toys, in areas that require too small to achieve the cleaning with your fingers or with a tool.
Hot water tank
Finally, if your hot water tank is less functional or be executed more often than usual, one can think of water from the hot water tank through the drain port through the drain at the bottom. This is important, especially if you have good water. The hot water tank must be closed during this process and is often collected in water sediment over time in the bottom of the container available. This causes the least efficient reservoir sediments and cause damage.
Well, that's enough for today. Let's get to some of these hidden areas and a super clean spring, allowing you to have a good summer.
