Tips to Make your Kitchen Appliances Last Longer
Calibrate your oven
The built-in thermometer in any oven can drift out of calibration over time. When this happens, you could end up turning your oven higher than you need to. Not only will your recipe suffer, you’ll spend more on your energy and wear your oven out too quickly. Getting a thermometer to calibrate your oven’s thermometer can be a great way to address this problem.
Inspect the door seal
The seal around your oven’s door has an important job, it keeps the heat from escaping. Over time, these seals tend to dry out, crack or simply become stretched. When your oven door seal isn’t in good shape, a lot of the heat that you pay for will escape. Regularly cleaning your door seal is a great way to extend its service life. If you notice over a routine inspection that the seal seems loose, you should call for service.
Don’t use the self-cleaning feature
The day before Thanksgiving is usually busy for appliance service techs. That’s when many people decide to turn the self-cleaning feature in their ovens on, in anticipation of the big day. The self-cleaning feature in an oven works by running the heat at maximum for an extended period of time to burn out every food scrap in the oven cavity. Unfortunately, the process stresses ovens out so much that they often break down. Cleaning by hand on a regular basis is the best way to extend the life of your oven.
