Make Your Appliances Last Longer—From Vernon’s Trusted Experts Since 1957
New year, fresh start. Between school runs, ski trips, and dinner at home, your appliances work hard across the Okanagan. A few easy habits can reduce repairs, save energy, and keep your Vernon, Kelowna, or Kamloops home running smoothly.
Appliance Maintenance in Vernon: Resolutions Worth Keeping
-
Clean behind the fridge (monthly).
Pull it forward and gently vacuum dust from the coils. A clean condenser runs cooler and lasts longer.
-
Spray the cloth—never the control panel.
Liquids can seep behind knobs and buttons. Spray the cloth, then wipe.
-
Make oven cleaning a quarterly ritual.
A clean oven heats faster, smokes less, and cooks more evenly.
-
Upgrade to efficient models when it’s time.
Look for certified high‑efficiency options; they use less energy than older units. See our brand lineup and live demos in Vernon.
-
Treat laundry right.
Don’t overload. Clean the dryer lint filter after every cycle. Wipe washer gaskets monthly.
