From Lease Signing to Move-In Day: A Landlord’s Definitive Prep Timeline

From appliances to safety checks, here’s how to impress new tenants.

So, you’ve signed the lease with your new tenants. Congratulations! You’ve secured solid renters, the paperwork’s out of the way, and now you’ve got a window of time to get your property in shape before move-in day. Here’s the catch: that window is smaller than you think, and how you use it ABSOLUTELY matters.

Too many landlords slap on a coat of paint, vacuum the carpets, and call it a day. But if you want to protect your investment and keep your tenants happy (read: reduce turnover, complaints, and late-night “the oven won’t start” calls), you need a structured approach. That’s where this timeline comes in.

This isn’t a fluffy checklist. It’s a no-nonsense, boots-on-the-ground guide to getting your Dallas-area rental home ready — written for landlords who rent to middle-class families and expect a return on their effort. Follow this, and you’ll not only avoid tenant headaches, you’ll also look like the kind of landlord people actually want to rent from.

Immediately After Lease Signing: Lock Down the Big Picture

The ink’s barely dry, but this is your chance to get organized.

  • Document Everything: Walk the property and take photos or video of every room, inside and out. This protects you when it’s time to talk about the security deposit. You’ll be able to say exactly what was where and what you did or didn’t authorize. Future-you will thank present-you.


  • Paperwork and Compliance: Double-check lease addendums and disclosures (lead paint, flood zones, HOA requirements, whatever applies to your property). Dallas-area landlords have to keep these ducks in a row.

  • Schedule the Pros: Appliance servicing, HVAC checks, pest control — don’t wait until the week before move-in when everyone’s booked. A quick call to Appliance Rescue Service, for example, means your fridge, oven, and dishwasher are guaranteed to work on day one instead of making you look sloppy.



Think of this stage as your foundation. If you don’t handle the basics now, everything else is just window dressing.

Two Weeks Before Move-In: Clean, Repair, Refresh

This is where the heavy lifting happens.

  • Deep Clean: And no, I don’t mean a quick mop. I mean baseboards, ceiling fans, blinds, inside cabinets, and every mysterious corner you’ve been ignoring. Hire it out if you have to. Nothing kills tenant goodwill like sticky counters and dusty vents.

  • Repair & Refresh: Patch nail holes, replace tired caulk, tighten loose doorknobs, fix squeaky hinges. If the carpet looks like it’s hosted a frat party, replace it. These little touches scream “we care” more than you realize.

  • Appliance Audit: Run every appliance. Does the dryer actually dry in one cycle? Does the fridge hold temp? Does the dishwasher drain properly? Catch problems now. Having ARS do a full sweep here is landlord insurance you can’t buy elsewhere.



This phase is all about turning a used house into a fresh home.



One Week Before Move-In: Safety and Systems

Now it’s time to switch from appearance to functionality.

  • Safety First: Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, replace batteries, and check fire extinguishers. Rekey the locks (yes, even if you “trust” the last tenants). Secure windows and make sure exterior lights work.



  • HVAC and Filters: Dallas summers aren’t forgiving. Change filters, service the system, and make sure it’s cooling like it should. A tenant without AC in July won’t just call — they’ll rage.

  • Utilities Check: Test outlets, breakers, and fixtures. Replace burnt-out bulbs. Label your breaker panel so tenants don’t blow up your phone when the microwave trips it.

If you skip this step, congratulations — you’ve just created your future midnight emergencies.

A Few Days Before Move-In: The Final Polish

This is when you fine-tune the details.

  • Pest Prevention: Even if you don’t see anything, call in pest control for a once-over. Nobody wants to meet a roach on day one.



  • Exterior & Curb Appeal: Mow the lawn, trim shrubs, clear gutters. A tidy exterior makes a huge difference in how tenants treat the property.


  • Extras That Impress: Swap air filters (again, if needed), replace every last burned-out bulb, and consider small touches — like leaving appliance manuals in a folder or a “welcome kit” with basics like toilet paper and light bulbs.






This is also the perfect time for your own landlord walkthrough. Run faucets, flush toilets, check water pressure, and sniff out weird smells. Walk in like a tenant seeing the place for the first time. If something bugs you, it’ll bug them.

Courtesy of Schluesseldienst.


Move-In Day: The Hand-Off

This is it — the big reveal.

  • Keys and Orientation: Hand off all keys, garage openers, mailbox info, and explain anything quirky about the property (like “the dryer needs an extra tap on the button” or “the garbage disposal switch hides under the sink”).

  • Walkthrough with Tenants: Do it together. Note any existing dings or wear so it’s not a fight later. Tenants appreciate transparency.

  • Set the Tone: Be available, but not hovering. A quick reminder that “Appliance Rescue Service is on call if you run into any appliance issues” shows you’re proactive, not reactive.

This timeline isn’t about being nitpicky. It’s about protecting your investment, respecting your tenants, and setting the stage for a smooth, profitable lease term. Because here’s the truth: good tenants stick around when they feel taken care of, and that starts before they ever move in.

At Appliance Rescue Service, we’ve seen what happens when landlords cut corners — and it isn’t pretty. A dead fridge on move-in day, a dryer that takes three hours to finish a cycle, an AC system choking on a dirty filter in August. These aren’t just inconveniences; they’re tenant deal-breakers.

So, if you’re serious about keeping your Dallas-area rental running smoothly, don’t just “get by” — get ahead. Use this timeline, book your service calls early, and let ARS help you keep your appliances (and your tenants) happy.

Stay Cozy This Winter: Key Chores for Your Home

Prepare Your Home for Fall: Essential Maintenance Tips

Reset Your Kitchen Zones: A Smarter Way to Organize for Fall

Transform your kitchen into an organized, efficient, and stress-free space 

For years, homeowners were told to follow the “work triangle” when designing their kitchens: place the refrigerator, stove, and sink in a neat three-point setup, and everything else would fall into place. While that idea made sense in smaller, one-cook kitchens, today’s busy households need something more flexible. Enter the concept of kitchen zones—a modern approach that organizes your kitchen by function instead of rigid geometry.



At its core, zone planning is about grouping related activities and storing the tools for those tasks in the same area. Instead of running across the room every time you need a cutting board or mixing bowl, you set up your space so those items live where you’ll actually use them. The result? A kitchen that feels intuitive, runs more smoothly, and supports how you really cook, clean, and gather. Even better, zones can be customized to suit your lifestyle—whether that means a dedicated baking station, a coffee corner, or a family drop zone for backpacks and mail.


Here’s how to put the concept into practice in your own home.




From Triangles to Zones

The old “work triangle” rule still has its place in some smaller kitchens, where the distance between fridge, stove, and sink needs to be kept tight. Ideally, each side of the triangle should be 4 to 9 feet, with a total perimeter of 13 to 26 feet. But for larger kitchens—or households where more than one person is cooking—this setup falls short. That’s where zones come in.

Instead of focusing on appliances, the zone method maps your kitchen by function. Ideally, you'll have five functiona areas, storage, prep, cooking, cleaning and serving. Think of it like a workflow chart for your kitchen, keeping everything in arm's reach.





The Five Core Kitchen Zones

While every kitchen is unique, most will benefit from these five essential areas:


1. Food Storage 

This zone covers the refrigerator, freezer, and pantry—the heart of your ingredients. Place your fridge and pantry close together so you don’t have to zig-zag when unloading groceries or pulling out dinner supplies. Clear bins or labeled containers make it easier to keep track of what you have on hand (and avoid the dreaded three-bottle collection of soy sauce). Store everyday items at eye level and save the high or low shelves for things you use less often.




2. Dishes & Utensils 

Plates, glasses, mixing bowls, and cookware belong here. Everyday dishes are easiest to store near the sink or dishwasher so unloading becomes a one-step job. Pots and pans living close to the stove makes the most sense. A great option here is deep drawers, and if not that, pull-out drawers so you don't have to wrestle with lids. Lazy Susans, partitions and drawer dividers can all help to corral everything.



3. Cleaning & Waste

Your kitchen needs a central spot for washing up and disposing of waste. This is the sink, dishwasher, recycling bins and garbage. If possible, tucking a trash pull-out near the prep zone so scraps can go straight into the trash.  Cleaning supplies can go into a cabinet or under the sink, making it easy to clean up at the end of the night. Try to leave at least two feet of counter space on one side of the sink for stacking dirty dishes, with another 18 inches on the other side for drying or staging.


4. Preparation

This is where the magic happens—chopping, mixing, seasoning, and assembling. Ideally, your prep zone sits between the sink and the stove, so rinsed produce can move easily into the cutting area, then on to the pan. Stock this zone with knives, cutting boards, mixing bowls, and frequently used utensils. Good task lighting here makes all the difference—nobody wants to dice onions in the shadows.


5. Cooking

The stove, oven, microwave, and their surrounding surfaces make up this zone. To keep things running smoothly, keep oils, spices, pots, and utensils within arm’s reach. Leave at least a foot of counter space on either side of the stove for landing spots—places to set down hot pans or transfer food safely. And don’t forget proper ventilation: a good range hood improves air quality and keeps lingering smells at bay.

Optional Zones for Real Life

Once you have the basics down, you can layer in extras that suit your household:

Baking Zone: Store your stand mixer, rolling pins, and baking sheets together near the oven or pantry.

Coffee or Bar Zone: Create a mini café with your coffee maker, mugs, and supplies—or a bar area with glassware and mixers.

Drop Zone: A countertop or cabinet for keys, mail, laptops, or kids’ homework—because the kitchen inevitably doubles as the family hub.
Serving Zone: Keep platters, serving utensils, and glassware near the dining area for quick table setting.

Lunch Prep Zone: Corral reusable containers, sandwich bags, and water bottles to make mornings easier.

Specialty Storage: Seasonal platters, cake stands, and holiday dishware can live in upper cabinets or even outside the kitchen until needed.





Smart Layout Considerations

Even the best zones fall flat if the layout doesn’t support them. A few tips:

Place the refrigerator near an entrance so unloading groceries is less of a marathon.

Keep the sink relatively central, with the stove and fridge nearby.

Always allow counter “landing space” next to big appliances—12 to 24 inches is ideal.

In small kitchens, combine zones (prep and cleanup, for instance). In large kitchens, consider extras like a double island or a second prep sink.

Use vertical space—tall cabinets, wall hooks, or pot racks free up counters without sacrificing storage.





A well-zoned kitchen doesn’t just look organized—it feels better to use. Grouping items by task keeps you from running laps around the room, while clear landing spots make cooking and cleanup faster and safer. And because zones can be customized, they’ll work in any size kitchen, whether you’re living in a city apartment or a sprawling family home.

Think of it this way: the old work triangle gave you a map; zones give you a system that adapts to how you actually live.





Courtesy of Csaba Nagy

If you’re planning a kitchen refresh, organizing into zones is one of the simplest ways to make your space work harder for you. And if your appliances aren’t keeping up with your new system—whether it’s a fridge that’s running warm or a dishwasher that can’t keep up—our team at Appliance Rescue Service is here to help. From repairs to expert advice, we’ll make sure your kitchen runs as smoothly as it looks.

Back-to-School Cleaning: How to Prep Your House for Fall

Before the backpacks pile up, give your home the reset it needs—starting with air filters, fridges, and family routines.

As the final days of summer fade, August quietly offers something most people overlook: a golden window to reset the home before school-year routines take over. Unlike the frenzy of July vacations or the packed schedule of September, August sits in a sweet spot—a time when the house is (hopefully) calmer, and routines are ripe for a thoughtful refresh. Whether it's deep-cleaning forgotten appliances or setting up smarter systems for school success, an August reset is one of the most powerful things you can do for your home.

Why August Matters

Summer leaves its mark on every corner of the house. From the buildup of dust and allergens to overused appliances and cluttered pantries, it's easy for the home to slip into disarray. Add in Miami-style humidity or heavy AC usage, and you're looking at dust circulation, stale air, and stressed-out appliances. Resetting your space in August helps prevent the backslide into chaos once the school year kicks off.

But there’s another compelling reason: appliance technicians and home service providers often have more availability in August. Beat the September rush by handling your tune-ups and deep cleans now—your future self (and your dishwasher) will thank you.

Start With the Air You Breathe

Air quality plays a quiet but critical role in how we feel at home. As we prepare to spend more time indoors, this is the moment to swap out HVAC filters, dust vents and fans, and clean purifier units if you have them. In homes with allergy sufferers, an August reset can ease the transition into fall by removing dust mites, mold spores, and other irritants.

Pro tip: Even opening windows for cross-ventilation during early morning or late evening hours can help flush out stale air and reduce indoor pollutants.

Quick Appliance Wins With Big Payoffs

Before routines shift and time disappears, take advantage of August's relative calm to give your appliances a little love:

  • Refrigerator coils and shelves: Pull the fridge out, vacuum the coils, and wipe down shelves. This improves efficiency and keeps food fresher.

  • Washer gaskets and detergent drawers: Clean away detergent residue and check for trapped moisture to prevent mold and odors.

  • Dishwasher filters: Rinse or scrub them clean so you don't start the school year with underperforming wash cycles.

  • Microwave and oven vents: Degrease these now, before school lunch reheating becomes a daily routine.

  • Dryer lint traps and vents: A deeper clean here helps prevent fire hazards and keeps laundry day moving.

Each of these small tasks helps extend the life of your appliances and ensures they’re working at peak performance—critical when you're packing lunches, washing uniforms, and microwaving leftovers on repeat.

Refresh the Kitchen Command Center

Your kitchen is about to get busier. Start by organizing the refrigerator and pantry: toss expired goods, wipe shelves, and group snacks or lunch items together. Designate a section for school-day essentials like reusable containers, napkins, and water bottles.

Now’s the time to set up a lunch-packing station. Use a drawer or small bin to corral bento boxes, thermoses, and prep tools. Prepping even small components the night before (like snacks or fruit) can turn hectic mornings into manageable ones.

Organize Smartly for the School Year

The shift from summer to school isn’t just about schedules—it's a shift in how the whole house functions. Designating drop zones for backpacks, lunchboxes, and sports gear helps contain daily clutter and makes mornings smoother. Even simple additions like hooks or labeled bins can work wonders.

Involve the kids: Let them choose their own drawer or shelf to manage, and assign age-appropriate chores tied to their school responsibilities. If they clean up after snack time or help reset the kitchen at night, it builds habits that benefit everyone.

Also consider how homework will happen. If you don’t have a dedicated space, turn part of a dining table or kitchen counter into a clutter-free homework zone. Clear away distractions, and stock it with supplies so no one has to go hunting for pencils at 8 p.m.

Don’t Skip the Laundry Zone

School season means more laundry: sports gear, uniforms, extra outfit changes. Take time in August to clean your washer and dryer thoroughly—including gaskets, detergent dispensers, and lint screens. If it’s safe, pull the units out and clean behind and beneath them. This is also the moment to reorganize shelves or cabinets in your laundry area for quicker access to stain removers or dryer sheets.

If space allows, add a folding station or simply clear off an area for sorting clean clothes. Streamlining laundry now can help prevent pileups later.

Schedule That Service Call Now

Need a professional tune-up or a deep clean you can’t tackle solo? August is the month to book it. Once the school year starts, everyone’s calendars tighten—including home service pros. Whether it’s a full duct cleaning, a carpet refresh, or a technician visit for your washer or AC, getting it scheduled now ensures your home is running smoothly before it matters most.

Make the Most of the Reset

Even just a few intentional updates can make a major difference in how your home functions once life speeds up again. The key is to tackle what matters most to your household: cleaner air, more efficient appliances, a more functional kitchen, or a smoother morning routine.

Think of your August home reset as laying the groundwork for a healthier, calmer school year—one where the fridge is clean, the laundry isn’t backing up, and everyone knows exactly where their backpack goes.

Because once that first school bell rings, it’s game on.

Cleaning Confessions: The Myths Social Media Won’t Stop Spreading

The top 10 cleaning myths that get likes online—and cost you in real life.

Cleaning TikTok is the new HGTV—except instead of qualified professionals, you’ve got someone in pajamas pouring six cleaners into a toilet while narrating in a soothing voice. It's satisfying to watch. Sometimes it's even helpful. But most of the time? It's a fast track to ruined appliances, wrecked finishes, and chemical reactions your lungs did not sign up for.

Let’s break down 10 of the most popular viral cleaning myths—and why they’re more dangerous than helpful. Bonus: you’ll get the truth from actual experts (not just someone with good lighting and a pot lid).




1. Product Overload = Peak Clean? Not Even Close.

The Trend: TikTok’s #ProductOverload tag shows creators dumping entire bottles of cleaner into sinks, bathtubs, and toilets. It’s like a chemical ASMR video—and it gets millions of views.

The Truth: You know what too much product leaves behind? A sticky, filmy mess. “Using too much cleaning product can leave residue or build-up on your household surfaces, which in turn can attract more dirt,” explains Carylanne Brown, senior Grove guide at Grove Collaborative.

More product doesn’t mean more clean. It just means more mess (and possibly, more damage).


2. The Bleach + Vinegar Combo: Toxic, Not Clever

Courtesy of Anna

The Trend: Combine bleach with vinegar and get an “ultra-disinfecting” cleaner. Boom. Insta-ready.

The Truth: Please don’t. Mixing these two creates chlorine gas, which is extremely dangerous. You’ll go from “sparkling clean” to “call Poison Control” real fast.




3. Baking Soda + Vinegar: Not the Dynamic Duo You Think

The Trend: Dump baking soda and vinegar into your sink or toilet and watch the volcano fizz. So satisfying, right?

The Truth: It’s fun, sure—but not effective. The fizzing reaction neutralizes both ingredients, leaving you with salty water and zero cleaning power. “The chemical reaction is largely cosmetic,” says basically every chemist, ever.



4. Bleach-Soaked Toilet Paper on Grout = Cracked Tile

Courtesy of Brett Hondow

The Trend: Drench paper towels in bleach, line them up along grimy grout, and wait overnight.

The Truth: You’ll get some whitening… and possibly crumbling grout, damaged tile, or a hefty repair bill. Bleach is far too harsh for most porous surfaces. Skip the science fair.




5. Bleach + Dish Soap in the Drain: What Could Go Wrong?

The Trend: TikTokers pour bleach and dish soap into drains for a “deep clean.” Spoiler: it’s chaos in a cup.

The Truth: Some dish soaps contain ammonia. Mixed with bleach, that can produce chloramine gas, another respiratory hazard. Your lungs would rather you didn’t.



6. Magic Erasers on Leather and Car Interiors? Hard Pass.

The Trend: Scrub your leather seats or vinyl panels with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for a fresh-car finish.

The Truth: Magic Erasers are micro-abrasive. They can strip finishes, scratch surfaces, and cause discoloration. Great for walls. Not for your ride.



7. Mopping the Walls with Detergent Pods

Courtesy of Michal Jarmoluk

The Trend: Boil a detergent pod, dunk a mop head, and swipe your walls for that "hotel clean" look.

The Truth: Just… why? This can damage paint, oversaturate drywall, and leave behind residue that attracts even more grime. Use a damp cloth and mild soap instead. Or better yet, read your paint can, as not all paints are even meant to be washed.






8. The Tide Pod Couch Scrubber

The Trend: Wrap a microfiber towel around a pot lid, dunk it in Tide and hot water, and “shave” your upholstery with it.

The Truth: This one looks effective— but, those tide pods are meant to be diluted with gallons and gallons of water. Not a single pot. So, that means that the chemicals in the detergent aren’t getting properly washed out of your couch. Between that and the potential to damage your skin if not diluted properly, just skip this one.  If you wouldn’t wash your sofa with a garden hose, don’t do this either.







9. Ice Cubes in the Garbage Disposal (with Baking Soda + Vinegar)

Courtesy of Sebastian Nikiel

The Trend: Dump ice, baking soda, and vinegar down the disposal to sharpen blades and clean it out.

The Truth: Ice doesn’t sharpen blades—it can jam or crack them. And again with the baking soda and vinegar combo—it’s mostly for show. Stick with a cleaner designed for disposals and rinse with hot water.


10. Self-Cleaning Appliances Take Care of Themselves

The Trend: “It has a self-cleaning button. That means I never have to touch it again!”

(Insert sad appliance noises here.)

The Truth: Dishwashers, ovens, washing machines—even vacuums—need regular manual cleaning. Filters, vents, seals, and gaskets don’t magically clean themselves. Appliances need regular maintenance to perform properly, as we often point out.




It’s tempting to trust the viral cleaning videos—fast, flashy, and seemingly effective. But a little bit of bleach foam and a camera angle doesn’t equal a clean, healthy home. Use the right products, in the right quantities, and clean the way your appliance manuals (and lungs) would prefer.

And if you’re not sure what’s safe for your fridge coils, oven vents, or washer drum? That’s what we’re here for.



If you're in the Frisco–Dallas–Allen area, Appliance Rescue Service is just a call away. We’ll keep your machines humming, your home sparkling, and your lungs chemical-free.

Common Appliance Issues That Could Ruin Your Holiday – And How to Prevent Them

10 Energy Myths Costing You More Than You Think

Don’t let outdated advice keep your electric bill high—here’s what actually works.

Sometimes we all need to be more efficient. Sometimes, like when we look at our electric bill during the peak of summer. So you go online and look for 'tricks to reduce my electricity bill.' We all do it. 




Unfortunately, with how connected the internet is, it's much easier to spread 'tips and tricks' that don't actually do anything to help you. So this week we're looking at what you can actually rely on to cut down on your energy bill. We're debunking some myths that have been around for years, and others that have only come about thanks to the internet and social sites. 




Turning Devices Off Stops All Energy Use

Courtesy of Andrea Piacquadio

This one used to be true. But if you look at your various devices, many of them have lights, clocks and wifi. Those are typically on, even if the device is off. This is called 'vampire' power, or 'phantom' power. If you want to turn them off completely, we suggest using power strips or unplugging things entirely. 




Leds Aren’t As Bright Or Pleasant As Incandescents

While we can't say anything about how pleasant you might find something, modern LEDs are very adjustable. They can be tuned for both brightness and color temperature, based on what you like. Bonus: they use up to 90% less energy and last longer than an incandescent bulb. 



Dimming Incandescent Lights Significantly Cuts Costs

This one is a little tricky. Yes, dimming your incandescent lights DOES cut costs. The problem is that it's not proportional. If you want to be more effective AND have more control over it, switch over to LEDs or CFLs. 




Solar Panels Don’t Work In Cloudy Or Cold Climates

Courtesy of Michael_Pointner

This is another one that seems like it might be the case, but fortunately, it's not. In fact, solar panels just rely on the fact that the sun is up, not necessarily direct sunlight. They are in fact effective year-round in most locations. 




Cranking The Thermostat Heats Or Cools A Home Faster

We who live in Texas, wish this was true. Systems will heat and cool at a constant speed, because the size of your house hasn't changed at all. A higher setting is only going to make your HVAC run longer and use more energy.




Closing Vents In Unused Rooms Saves Energy

While this one seems like it makes sense, have you ever tried it? What ends up happening is the pressure on the system is increased instead, because the systems isn't balanced any longer. When each system is designed it's meant to work as a whole. If you're looking for efficiency, you're better off leaving all vents open, and looking into a system meant for zoning. 


All New Appliances Are Energy Efficient

Efficiency and tests for efficiency can vary wildly from one company to another. As of right now, you're better off looking for something with the Energy Star label, which tests according to a set of standards and shows them on their website.

Handwashing Dishes Saves Energy Over Using A Dishwasher

How many times did we all hear this one growing up? And for many years it was true. However, modern dishwashers, especially those with the Energy Star tag, use far less water for an entire load of dishes. 





The Shape Of A Freezer Doesn’t Matter

Unsurprisingly, this one is untrue. Think about a chest freezer versus a French door refrigerator. The opening for a chest freezer is much smaller than that of a French door refrigerator. So, when you open the freezer, there's less cold air that's able to escape at once. If less air escapes, less has to be replaced and energy is saved. 





Efficiency Savings Are Too Small To Matter

That depends entirely on you. The question isn't "will I save anything" it's "how much do you consider worth it?" An extra $200 a year? That's only saving  $16 a month. By making changes around your home,  you can and will see changes, as cumulative savings are substantial. 




Energy myths might seem like harmless household wisdom, but over time, they can quietly chip away at your budget and even shorten the lifespan of your appliances. Whether it's believing that handwashing dishes saves more water, assuming that all new appliances are energy efficient, or thinking the shape of your freezer doesn't matter, these little misunderstandings can lead to higher utility bills and more wear and tear on your machines. The good news? Once you separate fact from fiction, it's surprisingly easy to make smarter choices that help your home run more efficiently—and save you money month after month.

If you're in the Frisco, Dallas, or Allen area and want to be sure your appliances are doing their job without wasting energy (or costing you extra), Appliance Rescue Service is here to help. From routine maintenance to honest, expert repairs, our technicians can make sure your dishwasher, fridge, washer, dryer, and more are running as efficiently as possible. We’ve seen the impact small changes can make—and we’re always ready to give straightforward advice that helps you get the most out of your appliances.
