1 - Refrigerator

Regularly wipe down the interior shelves, drawers and walls of your refrigerator with a mild soap and warm water solution. Pay extra attention to sticky spills that can attract more grime over time. For the exterior stainless steel, use a specialized cleaner and soft cloth to disinfect and polish to a shine.

2 - Microwave Oven

An easy, safe way to clean a microwave interior is to fill a microwave-safe bowl with 1 cup water and 1 tbsp baking soda and heat for 2-3 minutes. The bubbling mixture will loosen baked-on grease and splatters. Carefully remove the hot bowl, then use a damp sponge or soft cloth to wipe away grime, soaking stubborn spots as needed. Disinfect the touchpad with a wipe. This thorough clean improves safety and function.

3 - Sterilizer

For a mineral deposit-free sterilizer, make a cleaning solution by filling the chamber with equal parts hot water and distilled white vinegar. Let soak for 30 minutes to dissolve lime and calcium buildup. Gently scrub stains away with a soft brush or plastic scouring pad. Rinse thoroughly until the vinegar smell completely dissipates. Proper descaling improves performance.

4 - Burners

Gently remove burned-on food residues from gas burner components using a soft steel wool pad. For heavy grime, let pans soak in warm soapy water before scrubbing clean. Always rinse and dry thoroughly afterwards to avoid rusting. This prevents clogs and keeps flames even.

5 - Robot Vacuum

Maintain a robot vacuum by emptying the dustbin after every use. Occasionally wipe the sensors with a dry microfiber cloth to remove dirt buildup so it can properly navigate. Check the brushes and wheels for obstructions too. Proper care maximizes cleaning performance.

6 - Vertical Hood

Over time, vertical hood filters accumulate sticky oil and grease residue. For thorough cleaning, remove the metal filter and soak it in hot soapy water, using a degreaser if needed to cut through grease. Let it soak for 15-20 minutes before scrubbing with a brush. Rinse until the water runs clear. This prevents blocked air flow and grease drips.

7 - Instant Water Heater

For optimal performance, regularly wipe down the exterior and descale the interior of your instant water heater using a white vinegar solution to prevent mineral buildup. Also inspect the connecting pipes for leaks and test the pressure relief valve annually. By using these methods, you can ensure your instant water heater operates efficiently and safely with minimal effort.
