Summer Cleaning Tips

Summer time is around the corner, and although its a time for fun, its also a great time to tackle some of those cleaning tasks that require a little extra work — and a little extra water. So we encourage you to have fun with it. Put on your favorite sweat or swim gear — perhaps even a mimosa or two — and have a little fun in the process!

1. Windows

Wash your windows inside and out. And don’t forget the window screens. This is also a crucial step during the summer when your windows are open more and the humidity can encourage mold growth. Take the time to suds-up your window screens to keep your breathing easy and enjoy the fresh air.

2. Clean & reverse the fan

Ceiling an floor fans can spread germs and dirt around your home if they are not properly cleaned. A tip from the pros: after cleaning the fan, switch the direction of the blades to counterclockwise. This trick pushes the cold air down saving energy and increasing the effectiveness of your machine.

3: Air Conditioner

We’ve saved the most important for last. An air conditioner that is clogged up with dust and dirt won’t function as well or cause the machine to quire working altogether. Simply clean the filter with warm soapy water and let air dry in the hot summer sun.
