As winter approaches, it’s essential to ensure your appliances are well-maintained to avoid any unexpected issues. Here are some expert tips to keep your home running smoothly during
the colder months:
Laundry Room Care:
Dryer Vent Maintenance:
Snow and Ice Blockage:
Ensure your dryer vent outside is clear of snow. Ice buildup can be even more problematic, especially if the vent is high off the ground.
Lint Build-Up:
A covered or frozen vent can lead to lint accumulation, increasing the risk of a dryer fire.
Solution:
Appliance Master can resolve these issues and provide recommendations to alleviate other concerns.
Washer Care:
Location Consideration:
If your laundry room is on an outside wall or in a garage, the risk of bursting washer fill and drain hoses increases with freezing temperatures.
Preventative Measures:
Install metal mesh fill hoses and monitor your drain hose regularly.
Solution:
Appliance Master technicians carry metal mesh hoses and can quickly replace them before any problems occur.
General Appliance Maintenance
Dishwasher:
Clean the filters and check for leaks. Regular maintenance ensures efficiency, longevity and improves washability. You’ll have cleaner dishes.
Refrigerator:
Clean the condenser coils.
Is there any ice buildup inside your freezer?
Appliance Master can address these issues to prevent major problems like loss of cooling or freezing.
Oven & Cooktop:
After holiday baking and cooking, check the self-clean function of your oven.
Verify that all burners are working properly.
If you notice anything unusual, call Appliance Master. Addressing issues early can restore your appliance to its former function and prevent complications.
