  • Dishwasher

    While not high-maintenance, it does need a little care occasionally.
  • Window screens

    Take screens down to clean them. It’s a lot easier — and sometimes safer — than cleaning them in place.
  • Vacuum cleaner

    Which style is best? Choose on personal preference and the jobs at hand.
  • Pre-finished floor

    Sweep or vacuum the floor at least weekly.
  • Wet-dry vac

    Wet-dry vacuum cleaners are best suited to garages and unfinished basements since they tend to spew fine dust out with the exhaust air if you don’t install an optional filter. They can come in handy for limited jobs in the home, such as clearing out a clogged sink, sucking up pet accidents, etc.
  • Abrasive (scouring) cleaners

    They're great aids in everyday chores, but be careful — don't cause damage that can only complicate future cleaning.
  • Heater, portable

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

    For safety’s sake, unplug this appliance and let it cool first.
  • Gutter, rain

    Dirt streaks on gutter facings are hints that this job is overdue.
  • Sodium metasilicate

    This highly effective cleaner is a phosphate-free substitute for trisodium phosphate.
  • Damp mopping

    Used where lots of water could damage the floor or the subfloor.
  • Edge cleaning

    Carpets and floors next to walls aren’t daunting to clean. Here’s why.
  • Wilsonart® flooring

    A high-pressure laminate floor manufactured by Wilsonart International Inc., Temple, TX.
  • Microwave oven

    A convection oven is a much tougher cleaning proposition.
  • Fire alarm

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

    A substance is biodegradable when natural biological decay processes can break it down into simple molecules.
  • Gibraltar

    A solid-surface kitchen and bath countertop line manufactured by Wilsonart® International Inc., Temple, Texas.
  • Radiator, steam (upright)

    These are the simplest, safest type of radiator to keep clean.
  • Automotive exterior

    Vehicle paint is another durable, yet easily scratched surface.
  • Plastic furniture

    The garden hose is the easiest and best tool for routine cleanings.
