What have you forgotten in your New Year Resolution?

Most of us have a New Year Resolution e.g. to lose weight, get fit, detox or live a healthier life, but have you overlooked something?

For all of the above to work as effectively as it should, the environment you live in should be undergoing a transformation as well.

Let’s start with the air you breathe in your home or business. Your air conditioner has built in air filters unless it is out of date or hasn’t been professionally cleaned. You can clean the filters yourself simply by removing them and giving them a good vacuum and a gentle wash with warm soapy water. But the allergy and illness causing contaminants are found deeper into the unit, mould, bacteria, pet dander, animal faeces, dead animals and dust can all build up in the coils and on the inside of the unit.

Every time you turn your air conditioner on, these contaminants are blown into the air for you and your family to breathe in. If you still smell unusual odours, coming from your air conditioner, even after you have cleaned the filters, it may be time to replace the unit altogether.

Don’t forget to check your windows and window surrounds for mould as well, it can build up in many different places and is often found behind curtains and blinds. If you find any, a good clean with soapy water with a splash of white vinegar will remove most of the stains. If the stains are really bad you could use a little bleach in water but be aware that this may cause some damage to painted wood sills.

Is your fridge healthy? Be brutal and give it a thorough clean out, get rid of all old food, especially the unhealthy kind and give the interior a good clean with warm soapy water. Follow up with a wipe over with 2 tablespoons of white vinegar and 10 drops of vanilla essence mixed with water in a spray bottle, this not only freshens the inside of your fridge, it also helps to protect against mould growth. The same mix can be used in the bathroom and laundry over clean tiles.

From all the team at HydroKleen, we would like to wish you a very Happy, Healthy and Safe New Year.
