I just finished putting the Christmas decor away and everything looks so bare! I always get the itch to deep clean and to rearrange things right after packing away the holiday decor. January is my “refresh” month. My favorite deep cleaning tool is a steam cleaner. I love my HomeRight SteamMachine! Today I am going to share 40 ways you can use a steam cleaner around your house!
Steam Cleaning the Kitchen
The kitchen is full of little nooks and crannies and hard surfaces that get real dirty. It is also where we store and prepare our food so it is important that it stays clean and sanitized. From the dishwasher to the wrinkled tablecloth, there are lots of places to use the steamer in the kitchen!
*Oven & Stove
*Lazy Susans & Cabinets
*Silverware trays & drawers
*Cabinet doors
*Fridge
*Microwave
*Dishwasher
*Backsplash & Tile
*Counters
*Sink & Drain
*High Chairs
*Table Cloth
Steam Cleaning the Bathroom
The bathroom is my favorite place to use my SteamMachine. It is germ city in there and once I have steamed all the surfaces I feel so much better. The hinges of the toilet seat, tile grout, and the sink drain are just a few of the “icky” places you can sanitize without harsh chemicals!
*Toilet
*Tile & Grout
*Sink & Drain
*Faucets
*Tub & Shower
*Cabinet Hardware
Steam Cleaning the Bedroom
We spend a lot of time in our room so it makes sense that it should be a priority to keep it clean. Have you ever cleaned your mattress? Steam cleaning it kills dust mites and germs. Shoe organizers tend to get a little smelly and dirty. Do you hate ironing? While you have your steam cleaner out, why not steam the wrinkles out of your clothes? Works like a charm and is much more fun!
*Mattress
*Wrinkled Clothes
*Dresser
*Toys
*Plastic Bins & Shoe organizers
Steam Cleaning the Living Room
My boys smelly feet spend a lot of time lounging in here and it sure smell like it. From the rugs to upholstery, the SteamMachine can get rid of the oder and freshen up the room.
*Throw pillows
*Upholstery
*Rugs & Carpet
*Floors
Places in Every Room To Use the Steam Cleaner
Things like baseboards and light switches are in every room of the house. While you have the SteamMachine out you might as well tackle the door knobs, garbage cans, and blinds!
*Garbage Cans
*Baseboards
*Light Switches
*Windows
*Window Tracks
*Curtains
*Blinds
*Door Knobs
*Outdoor Furniture
*Steam Off Wallpaper
Other Places to Use The Steam Cleaner
Remember when Shane got his old beater car for free but it was a dirty, grimy mess? The SteamMachine made it looks so fresh and clean! Your washing machine is supposed to get things clean and yet it gets pretty dirty in places like around the bleach dispenser and around the hinges of the lid. Inside the house and outside the house, there are plenty of places to put the SteamMachine to good use!
*Car Seats & Stroller
*Washing Machine
*Barbeque
*Car
*Vents
*Sanitize Reclaimed Wood
