3 Tips for Cleaning this Fall Season

Nov 02, 2022

The leaves are changing colors, pumpkin-spice lattes are being served at your favorite coffee shop, and the air has taken on a crispness that makes you want to layer up in sweaters and scarves when you head out the door in the morning. 

It’s fall — the perfect time to get your house or business squeaky clean so it feels cozy, smells fresh, and looks beautiful when you welcome the holiday season! Here are three tips to help you get your home clean this autumn.

1. Schedule Some Deep Cleaning Time

Deep cleaning your home means taking a little extra time to scrub, vacuum, and wipe things that you wouldn’t normally do in a regular cleaning session. One way to do this is by scheduling some deep cleaning hours on the weekends or another time when you’re not too busy. Ensure that you can take care of all the nitty-gritty tasks that need to be done every so often.  

2. Get an HVAC Cleaning

Now that it’s cool out, soon it will be time to crank your heating up! Schedule an  HVAC cleaning  to eliminate any dust and allergens so you can enjoy a cozy winter. A typical air filter should last about six months before it needs to be replaced, but when your air ducts are cleaned by a professional, the filter will typically last two to four years after the service. In the meantime, schedule an annual or semi-annual check-up for your system.

3. Invest in Mold Inspection Services

Fall is a great time to clean, but it’s also the perfect opportunity for mold to grow. Mold thrives in moist environments, so now is the time to inspect your home and see if any spores have been able to make their way indoors. 

If you have any doubts or are unsure where the mold might come from,  contact an expert  to take care of your problem. They’ll be able to check all areas of your home to diagnose and treat the source of the issue.
