Spring cleaning has a huge following, but have you ever thought about cleaning your house thoroughly before winter? Simple items like upholstery, stove, HVAC systems and carpets, etc. need special attention during the fun time of year. Hence, here we are with some professional tips to help you with this process. Whether you need tips for effective upholstery cleaning or want to open up your nooks and crannies, these short instructions are your directional light! Let's begin.
Deep pad cleaning
People who invest a lot in their upholstery definitely trust the professionals to do the deep cleaning for them. However, you cannot call a professional every other week. You're usually hired on a monthly basis, and you don't really need a full deep cleanse every week. However, to keep the life of your furniture alive, you also need to clean it yourself.
The best way to keep your upholstery clean is to vacuum it. Furniture-friendly vacuum cleaners are now easily available in the market. You can keep the settings low and clean the upholstery. Another tip is to keep changing the upholstery sides. Turn the page over every two weeks so only one side isn't worn. You can also clean it with a soft, dry brush.
Clean your oven to stay warm
The most important piece of equipment that needs to be thoroughly cleaned in winter is your stove. A broken oven will freeze you in the winter months. It is therefore important to clean the air filters before the start of winter. If the air filter is clean, there will be no foreign objects blocking the passage and the oven will function properly. It is recommended that you seek help from a professional to thoroughly clean your oven as they understand the tiny details and can best handle it. Also make sure that the area around the exhaust pipes is not blocked.
Carpets
Similar to your upholstery; You also need to clean your carpets. They soak up a lot of dirt and debris and most need to be cleaned thoroughly. It is best to steam your carpets at the end of each season. However, daily vacuuming will help you out.
Don't forget the dryer openings
The dryer vents are easily forgotten during each cleaning season. This is usually done by professionals and they understand the nooks and crannies that cleaning is required. Since the dryer vents are not visible, they are easy to miss. If lint builds up in the ventilation slots, it can cause the dryer to perform poorly and can be dangerous. So it's important to clean it every now and then.
Conclusion
Thorough cleaning is the key to a brighter, tidier home. To make your home feel like a sweet home, make sure you do a thorough cleaning and hire professionals to do it for you every 6 months.
