We get this question a lot when customers are shopping for a new range or wall oven.
Here's the simple explanation:
A convection oven has a fan and exhaust system that helps circulate hot air around the cavity of the oven, helping to reduce hot and cool spots and for more even results with multi-rack cooking.
When it comes to convection ovens there are some benefits:
π₯ Ideal for multi-rack cooking; may eliminate the need to rotate dishes between oven racks
π Promotes browning, crisping and roasting
π₯ Intense heat may help cook food faster, depending on the recipe
β²οΈ Quick preheating
πͺ Run long baking cycles without drying out foods
Still not sure if convection is right for you or your family, stop by the store and speak with one of our experts. We can help you find the perfect range or oven to fit your needs.

When was the last time you cleaned under your appliances? π¬
It's recommended to clean under your appliances at least every 3 - 6 months.
Dust and debris and can build up under appliances and affect their efficiency leading to major issues. Food debris or moisture can lead to mold or unpleasant odors.
It might seem overwhelming to attempt to clean under appliances, but you can do it without moving the appliance.
You will need the following:
β
Vacuum with multiple attachments
β
Low-profile mop
β
Microfiber cloth
If you do decide to move your appliances, make sure to unplug the them to avoid potential safety hazards.
From there, we recommend putting a protective barrier between the floor and your appliance so you don't scratch or damage the floor while moving it.
Should your appliance need more than just a spring cleaning, give us a call.

Wondering if you need a new dishwasher? π€
Here are some telltale signs it might be time for a replacement.
It might surprise you that a few dirty dishes after a rinse cycle aren't necessarily a sign that your dishwasher isn't working properly. It might be due to operator error, or you might be using the wrong type of dish soap. If you address both of these issues and dishes still aren't coming out clean, try cleaning the spray arms before you call us.
If a new dishwasher is in your near future, we have good news.

Ok, here's some tough talk, how often do you clean your dryer lint trap?
Hint...EVERY SINGLE TIME!
Seriously, no joking.
Cleaning the lint trap on your dryer will ...
β
Save You Money on Your Energy Bills
A thick layer of lint makes your dryer work harder, increasing your energy bills. Cleaning the dryer lint screen allows more air to flow out of the exhaust vent for more efficient energy usage.
β
Extend the Life of Your Dryer
We love visiting our customers, but we understand that a maintenance call is the last thing you want. Cleaning your lint trap means less maintenance calls and a decrease in wear and tear.
β
Dry Your Clothes Faster
No one has the time to dry loads twice. A clean lint trap provides proper airflow so you can get that load dry in a single cycle.
β
Reduce the Risk of Fire
This is the most important point. Dryers generate high temperatures, and lint is highly flammable, removing this catalyst can keep your family safe.
Keep in mind that the lint trap only captures some of the lint that your dryer produces. We recommend having your dryer vent system professionally cleaned twice a year. βπ»
Give us a call to schedule your vent cleaning and rest easy knowing your dryer is functioning safely and properly.

Big loads are our jam...
πΆ π§
When a fresh load rolls in with those deep-dyed jeans,
And a huge pile of towels all fluffy and clean,
You get sprung, wanna pull out your detergent,
'Cause you notice that load is enormous!
πΆ Deep in the spin cycle it's tumbling,
My washer's churning, clothes are jumbling,
Oh laundry, you're my cleaning delight,
Gonna sort and fold you 'til the morning light! π§Ί
π΅ So all you laundry fans, let's unify,
Embrace those big loads, don't be shy,
We revel in the freshness, can't deny,
Laundry day happiness, reaching sky-high! ποΏ½οΏ½π§Ί
Toss it, wash it, fold it up neat,
Who needs small loads when big ones can't be beat?
So next time you're doing laundry, don't be shy,
Remember, we like big loads and we cannot lie! π§Ίπͺ
π See what we did there.
