Here are some tips to keep your appliances in their best condition.

• Clean your appliances in and out. Wipe down the door gaskets, vacuum the condenser oil, dust off the coils with a soft cloth.
• Stock your fridge and freezer with foods, so it stays cooler every time you open the door.
• Make sure your fridge and freezer run at the proper temperature, which is between 37° and 40° for the fridge, and 0° for the freezer, to keep it at its most efficient.
• Reposition your fridge or freezer. Make sure that it has airflow behind it by placing it an inch or two away from the wall.
• Prevent ice buildup in the freezer by spraying a small amount of cooking spray inside.

Washing Machine

• Use low-sudsing detergents for high-efficiency top-loaders and front-loading washers.
• Make sure to leave the door ajar after washing a load of laundry to prevent molds and mildews and allow the inter to air properly.
• Wash the washer with a solution of equal parts of vinegar and water. Using a detergent or vinegar, you can also run a hot-wash load with the empty washer to keep the interior clean.
• Avoid putting too much detergent as it can leave residues on your laundry and the interior machine, which may lead to problems.

Oven

• Be sure to wipe down the inside of the oven after it cools down.
• Clean your oven regularly.
• Don’t remove your oven’s knobs.
• Inspect and replace your gas line.
• Always unplug your oven when you clean.
• Check your element (burners) regularly.
• If you are baking a full casserole or pie, for example, consider putting a larger baking sheet underneath it.
• Don’t forget to clean your racks.
• Slide your oven out and clean underneath and behind it.

Dishwasher

• Regularly clean the filter.
• You can use vinegar to clean out your dishwasher to remove any stuck food particles or residual detergent left behind.
• Properly load your dishes.
• Once a month, use a solution made of three cups of water and half a cup of vinegar to clean up the seal.
• Check the spinning arms.

Dryer

• Clean lint screen regularly.
• Avoid putting soiled clothes in the dryer.
• Wipe down the outside of the dryer regularly.
• You should make a habit of cleaning the exhaust vent or duct at least two times every year.
