Simple Appliance Care Habits for Rumson Homeowners

Everyday Habits That Protect Appliance Performance

Appliances in Rumson homes often work harder than average. Waterfront conditions, coastal humidity, and frequent entertaining—especially near landmarks like the Navesink River or Rumson Country Club—can accelerate wear and tear. Simple habits like cleaning filters, wiping spills promptly, and avoiding overloading machines can make a noticeable difference in appliance lifespan.

Kitchen Care Tips

  • Dishwashers: Run full loads instead of small loads, and clean the filter monthly.
  • Refrigerators: Keep vents clear, check door seals, and regularly clean coils.
  • Ovens & Ranges: Wipe spills quickly, inspect burners, and check heating elements.

Laundry Care Tips

  • Washing Machines: Avoid overloading, clean detergent compartments, and check hoses for leaks.
  • Dryers: Clean lint traps every cycle and inspect vent ducts periodically to prevent fire hazards.
