Keep a vessel filled with charcoal in a fridge. The bad odours will be adsorbed by the coal. Baking soda kept in an open box will also remove bad odors in fridge.

Default cleaning appliances

Hello,

Has anyone used a steam cleaner? I keep seeing advts on how effective they are. There seem to be two sizes- the smaller one for cleaning bathroom tiles, burnt vessels etc, etc and the bigger one that does the extra work of floor cleaning.

I understand that by investing in a steam cleaner, we save on buying mops and chemical floor clenaing liquids. Save money, save the environment.

Any advice is welcome.

Thanks
Vidya

Default Steam Cleaner.

Hi vidhya,
One of my friends rented a steam cleaner a while ago to check it out and said it was very good...I think she hired the bigger one coz i remember her telling about floor cleaning...

Default Pls fill me in more details.

Hi friends,

I also looked at the cleaner in the ads. Can u tell whether it will work out in the carpet too? In any case, how frequently we can use this cleaner on the floor or carpet??

Thanks.

Thumbs up cleaning tubes

U can check with the customer service if u r on AMC
or
U can take the tube seperately and connect it to a tap and turn it full ( the hose dia will be much more than the tap) , u can show the innerwalls and clean the hose with fast flowing water. this is what i do.. and jus let it dry
