How to Extend the Life of Your Home Appliances: Tips and Tricks.

In the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, dependable home appliances are central to everyday convenience and comfort. Proper care not only extends their lifespan but also enhances their efficiency, saving you time and money. Starfix Appliance Repair brings you expert guidance to keep your appliances in top condition.

Regular Cleaning and Maintenance
Keeping your appliances clean and well-maintained is crucial. Here’s how to care for the appliances Starfix services:

  • Refrigerators: Maintain efficiency by vacuuming the condenser coils every six months to remove dust that can hinder airflow and cooling efficiency.
  • Dishwashers: Remove food debris from the filter regularly, and check that spray arms are free from blockages to ensure optimal performance.
  • Washers and Dryers: Use the right amount of detergent for your washer and avoid overloading it. Keep the dryer’s lint filter clean to enhance performance and prevent fire risks.

Proper Installation and Usage
Correct installation and following manufacturer guidelines can prevent many common appliance issues.

  • Stove and Oven: Avoid using oversized cookware that can block oven airflow. Clean the interior regularly to prevent the buildup of food residues that can affect performance.
  • Washer Hookups: Ensure that your water hookups are correct by running a cycle on the cold setting. If the water is hot, your hoses may be reversed, which needs correction to avoid washing mishaps and potential damage to fabrics.

Energy Efficiency Practices
Efficient use of your appliances is not only good for the environment but also for your wallet and appliance health.

  • General Tips: Operate larger appliances during off-peak energy hours to reduce electrical stress and save on utility bills.
  • Refrigerators and Freezers: Don’t overload them; proper air circulation is crucial for efficient operation.
