    Handle with care, and they’ll live a long life.
  • Acoustic popcorn ceiling

    A ceiling finish that presents a cleaning challenge.
  • Smoke alarm

    Since the introduction of smoke detectors 40 years ago, deaths from residential fires have been cut in half. Here’s how to ensure maximum protection from your alarms.

    A ceiling that absorbs sound — plus a whole lot more.
  • Fire alarm

    Professionally monitored systems are most often found in commercial settings.
  • Lampshade

  • HEPA

    A term relating to filter effectiveness. HEPA filtration removes 99.97 percent of all particles 0.3 microns and larger.

    If it has a plug, make sure it’s nowhere near an outlet before cleaning.
  • Odor

    Don’t cover up, clean up. Here’s how.
  • Wall, painted

    First, vacuum or dry-sponge walls. Wash if necessary with the following method.
  • Extension pole

    Also known as extension handles, these tools help keep your feet on firm ground instead of on a shaky, wet ladder.
  • Radiator, baseboard (forced hot water)

    Regular dusting and vacuuming will make them look better, and they’ll work better, too.
  • Candles

    They create a warm, cozy atmosphere — and present some hazards as well.
  • Marble

    Solid as a rock? Not quite, if it’s unsealed marble.
  • Microwave oven

    A convection oven is a much tougher cleaning proposition.
  • Mud

    Spatters, spatters everywhere? Whatever you do, don’t spread them around.
  • Refrigerator interior

    Clean up all spills right away. Here’s how to do that occasional, thorough cleaning.
