Spring Cleaning!

If you're anything like us, we are not the hugest fans of spring cleaning. But, during this time, we know how much of an advantage there is to having a well working, good filtering vacuum to help get the job done! While vacuuming may or may not be in the front of your mind when thinking about your spring cleaning process, here are a few tasks you may not have thought of to make this go a little bit smoother :)
Use your vacuum and attachments for:
~Inside cabinets and drawers
~Library and books
~Stairs
~Closets
~Pillows and furniture
~Mattresses
~Vehicles
~Draperies and valances
~Walls
~Mirrors
~Ceiling lights and fixtures
~Lamp shades
~Area rugs
~Routine dusting
~Even for "brushing" your pets to reduce shedding
And to add a little something special to this not-so-fun job, consider using a "scent tab". Sprinkle 1 tsp on the floor and vacuum up using a new vacuum bag or empty canister and during the life of the bag/canister your vacuum will smell like whatever fresh scent you chose!!!
If you need any tools, hoses, or attachments come by and see us!!
