  • Mineral scale

    That white or beige crust is coming from your tap water.
  • Degreaser

    A wide range of cleaning liquids, from mild to caustic.
  • Wooden beams

    Use a vacuum cleaner occasionally to keep ahead of dust, grime and cobwebs.
  • Chlorine bleach

    This laundry aid is also an effective disinfectant, but be careful.
  • Vinyl flooring

    These are frequently called “no-wax” floors, whether in sheet or tile form.
  • Oven, convection

    Even if your oven “cleans” itself, some tasks still need to be done by hand.
  • Chimney

    For most people, this is not a do-it-yourself cleaning task.
  • Dishwashing liquid, dishwashing detergent

    Inexpensive, mild and useful in a wide range of tasks.
  • Lye

    Be careful — as your nose has warned you already, this is a powerful and caustic substance.
  • Candles

    They create a warm, cozy atmosphere — and present some hazards as well.
  • Well-ventilated area

    Another term you’ll see frequently in HC-Pedia. What do we mean?
  • Ammonia

    Another fine degreaser, but watch that smell!
  • Alkalies

    Best for removing grease and oil.
  • Pressure washers

    They’re great outdoor cleaning tools, but they can cause severe injury or damage if misused.
  • Water

    This is the universal solvent for cleaning.
  • Rubber gloves

    Some jobs require greater hand protection than others.
  • Sodium metasilicate

    This highly effective cleaner is a phosphate-free substitute for trisodium phosphate.
  • Wrought iron

    To save its appearance, all of the rust has to go first.
  • Cutting board

    Thorough washing and sanitizing is essential, particularly on meat-cutting surfaces.
  • Carbon monoxide alarm

    Every home should have at least one CO detector.
