Cleaning can be an exhausting chore, but it’s a necessary one to ensure the health and safety of your family. It’s even more important when you consider that most Filipino families are now staying at home practically 24/7 because of work-from-home and remote learning set-ups implemented due to COVID-19.
Luckily, there are plenty of appliances that can help make cleaning a lot easier. From getting rid of dust and pet hair, to helping you get a good night’s rest, here’s a list of must-have home appliances for a clean, safe home:
A Vacuum Cleaner
The reliable walis tambo is already quite effective in sweeping away dust and debris from your floors. However, there are times when you need something more powerful and more convenient. This is where a vacuum cleaner can come to your rescue.
There are many models to choose from nowadays, including handheld vacuums, stick vacuums, and robot vacuums. For those who need to clean often, stick vacuums are a great choice because they offer powerful suction and feature large dust containers. Many stick vacuums also work on a variety of surfaces, including carpets and even upholstery.
For light daily sweeping, you can also get a robo-vacuum. You can connect this gadget to your home’s Wi-Fi system and can be controlled via virtual assistants so you can program it to work at fixed hours every day. (Plus, it’s kind of fun to watch a robot vacuum in action!)
A Dishwasher and Dish Sterilizer
If there’s one household chore that everyone tends to dislike, it’s probably washing the dishes. It especially becomes laborious when you have a big family and when you prepare saucy or oily dishes. With a dishwasher, however, this problem becomes a thing of the past. Just remove leftover food from the dishes, arrange them properly in the compartment, turn on the machine, and voila! Clean dishes without too much effort.
While we’re on the subject of clean dishes, you might also want to buy a sterilizer online or from your favorite appliance store. A dish sterilizer amps up the cleanliness and safety of your dishes and utensils by heating them up to a temperature that can kill harmful germs. Most dish sterilizers are designed to work with a variety of materials, including glass, plastic, porcelain, and stainless steel. As a bonus, these appliances can also keep off insects like cockroaches from crawling onto your clean dishes.
An Automatic Toilet Bowl Disinfectant
Joining “washing the dishes” in the list of most disliked household chores is “cleaning the toilet” simply because it’s a dirty, smelly, and exhausting job. Still, it needs to be done; otherwise, you’ll have to deal with unpleasant odors and the risk of getting sick from all the accumulated germs.
To help lessen the frequency of scrubbing the toilet, you can install an automatic toilet bowl disinfectant. This simple mechanism activates whenever you flush, dispensing a small amount of cleaning solution to freshen and sanitize the water in the bowl and the tank. It can also prevent stain and dirt buildup, which makes scrubbing the toilet so much easier.
An Air Purifier
When you think of air pollution, you probably imagine dark smoke emitted by vehicles and manufacturing plants. However, indoor air can be as dirty as outdoor air. Just think about the amount of cooking fumes, cleaning chemicals, secondhand smoke, and even pet dander lingering inside your home. All of these can cause diseases or allergic reactions, and affect your quality of life.
To make sure that your family is breathing in fresh, clean air, you can invest in an air purifier. Find a model with a high-efficiency particulate air filter (HEPA filter) so that it can get rid of 99.97% of dust, pollen, mold, and other airborne particles with a size of 0.3 microns.
A Washing Machine
A washing machine is essential for home cleanliness and safety. Not only can it keep your clothes fresh and looking like new, but you can also use it to wash towels, bedsheets, pillowcases, and other items where dust mites and bed bugs can hide. As a result, you lessen the risk of exacerbating allergies. You’ll also sleep better, which is definitely a must for good health.
If you can, get an automatic model so you only have to put in your wash load and pick the correct settings before letting the machine do its job. Many automatic washing machines also have water- and energy-saving features so you don’t have to worry about skyrocketing utility bills. Last but certainly not least, washing machines make washing clothes simpler and much easier. Thus, you don’t get as exhausted and can enjoy more time to relax.
With these home appliances, you can definitely put the “sweet” in home, sweet home. If you don’t have the items on this list yet, now is the time to purchase them. You’ll be pleasantly surprised by how much easier it will be to do your chores and keep your home clean and safe.
