Tools for Every Wash and Dry Cycle
Your laundry room is in heavy use day after day, season after season. Here are a few quick tips that will keep your laundry room running smoothly.

- Run your washing machine through a cleaning cycle to clear detergent buildup and grime.
- Vacuum dust from underneath your washer and dryer.
- Vacuum the inside of the lint trap every few months to remove dust and lint buildup.
