Maintenance on Refrigerators be sure you clean your condenser coil with a vacuum or appliance brush at least twice a year. This keeps it cooler and prevents it from running constantly. This increases its efficiency and will prevent costly repairs in the future
Maintenance on Washers– Overloading can cause leaks. If this happens to you, for your next load add a cup of white vinegar and run a cycle with no clothes. Water supply hoses can wear thin and burst. If you install stainless steel water hoses that are guaranteed against bursting they will last longer, and you will have less of a chance of getting water in your laundry room.
Maintenance on Dryers– you should clean your vent twice a year with a vacuum to prevent a fire. You should also keep the vent hose as short and straight as possible. Be sure to keep the lint filter in your dryer as clean as possible to increase the efficiency of your dryer
Maintenance on Dishwasher– you should remove scraps and rinse all your dishes. Keeping your hot water heater set to 140° to help keep dishes clean. You should also run a CLR Calcium, Lime & Rust Remover twice a year to remove deposits from the spray arms and keep your dishwasher running efficiently.
Maintenance Garbage Disposals- to keep blades sharp you should regularly drop several ice cubes into the unit and run it. Putting lemon or orange peels in the disposal will help clean and deodorize it.
