Maintain a Vacuum Cleaner

The vacuum cleaner doesn't need a lot of attention, but a little simple maintenance will keep it running and cleaning the best of it capability.

1. Empty the dust container after every cleaning. After every 2-3 cleaning you can do complete clean the container by wash, rinse and let it air dry before you attach it back to the vacuum.

2. Clean the brush row, aka beater bar. Especially if you have long hair, more than likely hair will wrap tight around the row. If there are a lot of hair, the brush will not be able to catch the dirt that on the carpet (check the bottom of your vacuum and you will see what exactly, I'm talking about.)

It's a lot easier if unattached the row and cut out all the hair. Check you manual book, most of the vacuum you could just pop out the cover and remove the row. When you put the row back, make sure you put the belt the right way. If you put the belt wrong it will burnt and can leave the melted plastic on your carpet.

3. Change the filter every so often. Remember keep it white or light gray. Clean air filters are important for air movement on bagless vacuum; even a modestly dirty filter can cut a vacuum cleaner’s suction in half.

Cleaning Shower Stall


Thinking about cleaning shower stall or bathtub, always make me think about spray those strong chemical and let it sit to do it work, I just go back in and rinse it out afterward. I did that all the time until one day after finished cleaning the bathroom and i feel dizzy and nausea, I feel like that strong bleach scent shoot straight through my brain. The symptom continue for an hours.

I kept thinking is it because i'm getting older or maybe it's time for me to start taking care of myself considering using non toxic product or green solution. At first, I use the green solution that in the market. Until I come across the home make all purpose cleaner that easily made from ingredient that i already have in my kitchen. I LOVE it, the shower stall are clean and I don't have to fight with the bleach smell. I encourage you to try it yourself this weekend!
