Vacuum cleaner
Which style is best? Choose on personal preference and the jobs at hand.
Vacuum cleaner dust release
The best vacuums minimize the amount of dust released into the air.
Vacuum cleaner maintenance
A well-maintained machine is a real timesaver.
Vacuum cleaner soil removal
How much soil do the best vacuum cleaners remove from carpet? The answers might surprise you.
Vacuum filtration
Keeping the dust inside your vacuum.
Vacuum system, central
These powerful units offer many advantages over upright and canister vacuums.
Vent, heating and air conditioning
Regular vacuuming is a must. Here are some other tips.
Ventilation
Another word for “airing the place out,” ventilation is one of the top three ways to improve indoor air quality.
Vinegar
Not an all-purpose cleaner, though it does have several effective uses around the house.
Wall, painted
First, vacuum or dry-sponge walls. Wash if necessary with the following method.
Well-ventilated area
Another term you’ll see frequently in HC-Pedia. What do we mean?
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.
White vinegar
Think of it as an inexpensive mineral scale remover. It's not the best solution for most cleaning situations.
Wicking
An explanation of how dirt can re-appear on a (supposedly) clean carpet or sofa.
Wood paneling
Cleaning is a snap on permanent finishes. Waxed or unfinished wood needs special care.
Wrought iron
To save its appearance, all of the rust has to go first.
Yellowing
It happens to both fabrics and hard flooring. Here’s how to deal with it.
