Fans are a must – have at home in summer. After months of use, they get covered in dust and bacteria. This not only looks bad and affects health but also weakens the cooling effect. So, it’s important to clean your fan regularly. Here’s a nifty way to clean your fan without taking it apart.
What You Need
- Half a basin of water
- Washing powder
- Fabric softener
- White vinegar
- Another bit of water
- A plastic bag
Steps
- Step 1: Mix water and washing powder. Spray this solution on the fan grille. Use a cleaning brush to scrub the grille clean.
- Step 2: Make a solution of vinegar and fabric softener. Spray it on the fan blades. This helps the water soak into the dust.
- Step 3: Put a plastic bag over the fan. Turn on the fan. The running fan will suck up the dust, which will fall off into the bag.
Why These Ingredients Work
- Washing powder cleans and disinfects.
- White vinegar disinfects and also helps moisten and remove dirt from the fan.
