Have you ever thought about how your are maintaining your home appliances? In this blog post, we're breaking down some common mistakes!</p>

<p class="avb-typography__paragraph">When you stack takeout containers, bags of produce, and salad dressing bottles in the back of your fridge, you block the air vents. Blocked air vents make it difficult for your fridge to regulate its temperature. Also, this could cause the condenser coils to work overtime and overheat.</p>

<p class="avb-typography__paragraph">Drops of food in your oven from gooey pies, delicious casseroles, and cheesy pizzas are totally common but must be taken care of. When you forget to clean the burnt-on foods from your oven’s base, you block the heating rods from doing their job.</p>

<h2 class="avb-typography__heading avb-typography__heading--title">MISTAKE #3: HAPHAZARDLY LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER</h2>

<p class="avb-typography__paragraph">We get it. You’re busy and the kids are just begging for a long list of chores (haha). Our best advice is to give your little ones specific instructions on how to properly load a dishwasher. If dishes are roughly placed on their racks and bang against the inside in the process, you can easily chip the vinyl coat. The racks will begin to rust and affect the wash process.</p>

<p class="avb-typography__paragraph">If you’re not much of a cook, there’s a good chance you hide your extra pans or chunky sweaters (shoutout to Carrie Bradshaw) inside the oven. Unfortunately, it’s pretty common for someone in the household to turn on the oven and ruin the contents inside. You’ll end up with charred items and a destroyed oven interior.</p>

<h2 class="avb-typography__heading avb-typography__heading--title">MISTAKE #5: IGNORING HOME APPLIANCE MAINTENANCE</h2>



<p class="avb-typography__paragraph">
This is one mistake that can cost you thousands in the long run. Ice makers in the refrigerator and appliance filters are two simple maintenance items often overlooked. Work with a professional home appliance maintenance company or do a bit of research on the upkeep your specific appliances require.</p>
