How to Clean Your Washing Machine by AJW

Have you ever noticed your washer looking dirty? Or having that awful musty smell? How about your clothes not coming out as clean as you would like after they have been washed? What can cause these problems? Hard water mineral deposits and detergents build up in your washer's hoses, pump, and the tub itself. Below are some tips to hopefully help you remedy that problem.

Run washer through a large hot water cycle with chlorine bleach. Then, run the washer through another hot cycle with white vinegar. It works best if you run the second cycle right after the first. Depending on your washer you can use approximately 1 qt of bleach and then 1 qt of vinegar. The bleach helps remove any stains you may have in the washer. After the second cycle, run the washer a third time with nothing added to remove any of the bleach/vinegar that may be remaining.

Run washer through a large cycle with hot water and 2 cups of vinegar or lemon/lime juice. Then in all the nooks and crannies you can use spray cleaner (with q-tips, old toothbrush, paper towels, etc.). This includes under the lid and under the lip of the washer. Make sure to get around and under all the seals etc. where buildup likes to hang out. Then, after everything is clean, run the washer one more time to remove any cleaner that may discolor clothes. Lemon/lime juice may help with rust problems. Vinegar is more helpful for odor problems and killing mold and mildew.

Another slightly different alternative is after running a vinegar or lemon/lime juice cycle, is to run another cycle with baking soda. Use approximately 2 cups baking soda on the largest cycle setting with hot water. Then, run a rinse load with nothing added.

Front load washers can accumulate mold and mildew under the seal where the door closes. For this there is a product on the market that is supposed to take care of this problem called Affresh. Affresh is sold at places like Home Depot and Lowes. You can also first try the bleach and hot water method. But, this may be an alternative for hard to clean washers. I have not used it, or am I familiar with Affresh so I can not comment on its effectiveness.

For all of these options first let the washer fill up with water and then add the product as the agitator starts up.

How often should you do this? About every three to four months. You may need to do it more often if you wash a lot of heavily soiled clothes.

Other tips for a cleaner washing machine:

Leave the washer lid open when not in use so that it can air dry.

To know how much bleach to use in your machine you can refer to the owner's manual or on the machine itself.

Try using less detergent. Note: Those with soft water may require less detergent, and those with hard water may need more laundry detergent. Again, you can refer to your owner's manual to what they recommend for your machine.

Some machines may have different materials on the inner structure of the machine, so it is best to consult your owner's manual or call the company before using cleaners other than laundry detergent. Some materials may be damaged by vinegar or bleach.

Warning: Before working on the inside of your washer with cleaner and q-tips etc. it is best to unplug the machine. If you clean the inside of the machine manually you run the risk of electrocution, so please make sure to unplug it first. Safety first!

CRYSTAL CHANDELIER CLEANING

Cleaning a crystal chandelier tends to be one of those jobs left to last because it seems so fiddly and requires concentration.
Restore the brightness of your crystal chandelier by giving it a good clean; your dinner parties will be brighter for it!

The piece-by-piece method:Unplug the fixture or turn off the electricity in the room you’re working in.Put a blanket on the floor under the fixture, which will soften the fall should you accidentally drop a crystal prism.Before you take it apart, take some digital photographs of your chandelier to help guide the reassembly.Cover bulbs with plastic bags.Cover the sink bottoms. Place two large bath towels on the counter: one for dirty crystals, and one for clean ones.Placing pieces in a plastic colander inside the sink is another way to protect the crystals before you wash them.Wash them in the soapy water.Rinse in hot water, and wipe dry.Wipe and buff the frame.Reassemble the fixture, being careful not to twist the chandelier too much, since doing this can loosen it from the ceiling.
Turn the fixture back on and marvel at your room’s brilliant new vibe.

 The wet method:

Although this is by far the fastest and easiest cleaning method, the correct preparations will take time.
For this method you will need small, plastic sandwich bags, a ladder, rubber bands, chandelier cleaning spray and a plastic sheet to put under the light.
Once again ensure the light is off and the bulbs have cooled down before commencing.
Spread the plastic sheet on the floor under the light fitting to catch all the dripping cleaner. Set the ladder up and place your sandwich bags over each light bulb, waterproofing the electrical fittings by securing the bags underneath each fitting with a rubber band.

When all is said and done with all three methods do not forget to dust off the light bulbs and replace the ones that no longer work.
Spray the entire fixture with the chandelier cleaner, being sure not to miss out any areas, and leave it to drip dry.
After about an hour you can remove the plastic bags from the fitting and fold away the plastic sheeting and the job is done.

Easy way to clean microwave in 2 minutes:

Easy way to clean microwave in 2 minutes:

Mix  water  and white vinegar and run over several sheets of paper towels , then bunch them together. ( Vinegar removes all odors from inside but you can use only water) 

Place the towels in the microwave. Heat them on high power for 1 minute.

Let the heated towels sit in the microwave for five minutes. The waiting time allows the steam to break down all those crusty food particles.

Wash the tray in the sink with dish soap, dry, and then return to microwave.

Wipe down the inside of the microwave with steam-heated towels, wearing rubber gloves to protect your hands. 

Wipe a dry paper towel over the interior .

Very easy !
