Sort results by: Best Match | Alphabetically

  • Radiator, baseboard (forced hot water)

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

    An acrylic, solid-surface countertop for kitchens and baths manufactured by LG Solid Surface Inc., Peoria, Ariz.
  • CADR

    Look for these numbers when comparing portable room air cleaners.
  • Fiberglass

    Easy does it when cleaning. It’s all too easy to scratch this otherwise durable material.
  • Window

    Where most people really need help is with large expanses of glass — this is where the streaks are.
  • 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.
  • Fungicide

    Mildew and mold are fungi. Bleach, borax, and other common chemicals effectively fight outbreaks.
  • Damp mopping

    Used where lots of water could damage the floor or the subfloor.
  • Vacuum cleaner dust release

    The best vacuums minimize the amount of dust released into the air.
  • Acetic acid

    The main active ingredient in vinegar.
  • Gibraltar

    A solid-surface kitchen and bath countertop line manufactured by Wilsonart® International Inc., Temple, Texas.
  • Vinyl flooring

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

    It’s how advancing technology helps people keep bacteria at bay.
  • Mold

    The term is interchangeable with “mildew.” However, mold can be very destructive to the home itself.
  • Automotive interior

    That new-car appearance and smell won’t last forever. These tips will keep the ride pleasant for many years.
  • Soap

    The old standby is mild enough for personal use, but doesn’t work too well in hard water.
  • Paint spot

    Latex or oil-based? Either way, take action quickly before it dries into a permanent stain.
  • Room air conditioner

    Cleaning this appliance is best done in autumn.
  • Humidity

    What this term means for a clean, healthy home.
  • Upholstery

    Vacuuming is your first line of defense against big cleaning hassles.
