Getting the house in order and ready to face the hot days ahead is essential. Home maintenance is an all year round responsibility and a lifetime commitment. While it’s sometimes nerve-wracking, it doesn’t always have to be.
Follow the advices below to prep your house in time for the hot season:
· Air condition units have a tube aiding evaporated moisture to flow to the ground. Clean it by removing the cap at the top and pouring a cup of bleach onto it until it drains to the ground. Stop mold and algae growth on your windows by pouring two cups of bleach into a drip pan under the cooling coils.
· Take out the vacuum cleaner’s bags outdoors to not release any dirt and dust particles that can cause allergies into the house premises. While the vacuum cleaner is open, dust its inside by using a thin cloth soaked in warm & soapy water. Air-dry the machine before installing new bags.
