A Complete Guide: How & When to Clean Household Appliances

Keeping your household appliances clean is not only essential for maintaining their performance but also for ensuring a healthy and hygienic living environment. From your refrigerator to your dishwasher, regular cleaning can extend the lifespan of your appliances and prevent potential issues down the line.

Refrigerator

Start by removing all food items and shelves from the refrigerator. Wipe down the interior surfaces with a solution of mild detergent and water. Don't forget to clean the shelves, drawers, and rubber seals. For stubborn stains and odors, use a baking soda paste or a mixture of vinegar and water. Vacuum the coils at the back of the fridge to remove dust and debris, and clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Aim to clean your refrigerator every three to six months or as needed.

Dishwasher

To clean your dishwasher, remove any food debris from the filter and spray arms. Run a cycle with a dishwasher cleaner or a mixture of vinegar and baking soda to remove built-up grease and limescale. Wipe down the door gasket and exterior with a damp cloth, and check the drain for any blockages. Clean your dishwasher once a month to ensure optimal performance.

Oven and Stove

For electric ovens, remove the racks and soak them in warm, soapy water. Use a non-abrasive cleaner to scrub the interior surfaces, including the walls and door. For gas stoves, remove the grates and burner caps and soak them in soapy water. Wipe down the stovetop with a degreaser and clean any spills or stains. Clean your oven and stove every three to six months or as needed.

Microwave

To clean your microwave, place a bowl of water with lemon slices or vinegar inside and heat it on high for several minutes. The steam will help loosen food splatters and stains. Wipe down the interior with a damp cloth and remove the turntable for cleaning. Use a mild detergent to clean the exterior surfaces and door. Clean your microwave once a week or as needed.

Washing Machine

To clean your washing machine, run a cycle with hot water and vinegar to remove built-up detergent residue and mold. Wipe down the door gasket and detergent dispenser with a damp cloth, and clean the filter if applicable. Leave the door open between washes to allow air to circulate and prevent mold growth. Clean your washing machine every three to six months.

Dryer

Clean the lint trap before or after each use to prevent fire hazards and improve dryer efficiency. Use a vacuum attachment to remove lint from the vent hose and exhaust duct. Wipe down the exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and clean the drum with a mild detergent. Clean your dryer every three to six months or as needed.

 

Now that you know how and when to clean your household appliances, it's time to put this knowledge into practice. By maintaining a regular cleaning schedule, you can ensure that your appliances stay in top condition and continue to serve you well for years to come.
