Back-to-School Cleaning: How to Prep Your House for Fall

Before the backpacks pile up, give your home the reset it needs—starting with air filters, fridges, and family routines.

As the final days of summer fade, August quietly offers something most people overlook: a golden window to reset the home before school-year routines take over. Unlike the frenzy of July vacations or the packed schedule of September, August sits in a sweet spot—a time when the house is (hopefully) calmer, and routines are ripe for a thoughtful refresh. Whether it's deep-cleaning forgotten appliances or setting up smarter systems for school success, an August reset is one of the most powerful things you can do for your home.

Why August Matters

Summer leaves its mark on every corner of the house. From the buildup of dust and allergens to overused appliances and cluttered pantries, it's easy for the home to slip into disarray. Add in Miami-style humidity or heavy AC usage, and you're looking at dust circulation, stale air, and stressed-out appliances. Resetting your space in August helps prevent the backslide into chaos once the school year kicks off.

But there’s another compelling reason: appliance technicians and home service providers often have more availability in August. Beat the September rush by handling your tune-ups and deep cleans now—your future self (and your dishwasher) will thank you.

Start With the Air You Breathe

Air quality plays a quiet but critical role in how we feel at home. As we prepare to spend more time indoors, this is the moment to swap out HVAC filters, dust vents and fans, and clean purifier units if you have them. In homes with allergy sufferers, an August reset can ease the transition into fall by removing dust mites, mold spores, and other irritants.

Pro tip: Even opening windows for cross-ventilation during early morning or late evening hours can help flush out stale air and reduce indoor pollutants.

Quick Appliance Wins With Big Payoffs

Before routines shift and time disappears, take advantage of August's relative calm to give your appliances a little love:

  • Refrigerator coils and shelves: Pull the fridge out, vacuum the coils, and wipe down shelves. This improves efficiency and keeps food fresher.

  • Washer gaskets and detergent drawers: Clean away detergent residue and check for trapped moisture to prevent mold and odors.

  • Dishwasher filters: Rinse or scrub them clean so you don't start the school year with underperforming wash cycles.

  • Microwave and oven vents: Degrease these now, before school lunch reheating becomes a daily routine.

  • Dryer lint traps and vents: A deeper clean here helps prevent fire hazards and keeps laundry day moving.

Each of these small tasks helps extend the life of your appliances and ensures they’re working at peak performance—critical when you're packing lunches, washing uniforms, and microwaving leftovers on repeat.

Refresh the Kitchen Command Center

Your kitchen is about to get busier. Start by organizing the refrigerator and pantry: toss expired goods, wipe shelves, and group snacks or lunch items together. Designate a section for school-day essentials like reusable containers, napkins, and water bottles.

Now’s the time to set up a lunch-packing station. Use a drawer or small bin to corral bento boxes, thermoses, and prep tools. Prepping even small components the night before (like snacks or fruit) can turn hectic mornings into manageable ones.

Organize Smartly for the School Year

The shift from summer to school isn’t just about schedules—it's a shift in how the whole house functions. Designating drop zones for backpacks, lunchboxes, and sports gear helps contain daily clutter and makes mornings smoother. Even simple additions like hooks or labeled bins can work wonders.

Involve the kids: Let them choose their own drawer or shelf to manage, and assign age-appropriate chores tied to their school responsibilities. If they clean up after snack time or help reset the kitchen at night, it builds habits that benefit everyone.

Also consider how homework will happen. If you don’t have a dedicated space, turn part of a dining table or kitchen counter into a clutter-free homework zone. Clear away distractions, and stock it with supplies so no one has to go hunting for pencils at 8 p.m.

Don’t Skip the Laundry Zone

School season means more laundry: sports gear, uniforms, extra outfit changes. Take time in August to clean your washer and dryer thoroughly—including gaskets, detergent dispensers, and lint screens. If it’s safe, pull the units out and clean behind and beneath them. This is also the moment to reorganize shelves or cabinets in your laundry area for quicker access to stain removers or dryer sheets.

If space allows, add a folding station or simply clear off an area for sorting clean clothes. Streamlining laundry now can help prevent pileups later.

Schedule That Service Call Now

Need a professional tune-up or a deep clean you can’t tackle solo? August is the month to book it. Once the school year starts, everyone’s calendars tighten—including home service pros. Whether it’s a full duct cleaning, a carpet refresh, or a technician visit for your washer or AC, getting it scheduled now ensures your home is running smoothly before it matters most.

Make the Most of the Reset

Even just a few intentional updates can make a major difference in how your home functions once life speeds up again. The key is to tackle what matters most to your household: cleaner air, more efficient appliances, a more functional kitchen, or a smoother morning routine.

Think of your August home reset as laying the groundwork for a healthier, calmer school year—one where the fridge is clean, the laundry isn’t backing up, and everyone knows exactly where their backpack goes.

Because once that first school bell rings, it’s game on.

Cleaning Confessions: The Myths Social Media Won’t Stop Spreading

The top 10 cleaning myths that get likes online—and cost you in real life.

Cleaning TikTok is the new HGTV—except instead of qualified professionals, you’ve got someone in pajamas pouring six cleaners into a toilet while narrating in a soothing voice. It's satisfying to watch. Sometimes it's even helpful. But most of the time? It's a fast track to ruined appliances, wrecked finishes, and chemical reactions your lungs did not sign up for.

Let’s break down 10 of the most popular viral cleaning myths—and why they’re more dangerous than helpful. Bonus: you’ll get the truth from actual experts (not just someone with good lighting and a pot lid).




1. Product Overload = Peak Clean? Not Even Close.

The Trend: TikTok’s #ProductOverload tag shows creators dumping entire bottles of cleaner into sinks, bathtubs, and toilets. It’s like a chemical ASMR video—and it gets millions of views.

The Truth: You know what too much product leaves behind? A sticky, filmy mess. “Using too much cleaning product can leave residue or build-up on your household surfaces, which in turn can attract more dirt,” explains Carylanne Brown, senior Grove guide at Grove Collaborative.

More product doesn’t mean more clean. It just means more mess (and possibly, more damage).


2. The Bleach + Vinegar Combo: Toxic, Not Clever

Courtesy of Anna

The Trend: Combine bleach with vinegar and get an “ultra-disinfecting” cleaner. Boom. Insta-ready.

The Truth: Please don’t. Mixing these two creates chlorine gas, which is extremely dangerous. You’ll go from “sparkling clean” to “call Poison Control” real fast.




3. Baking Soda + Vinegar: Not the Dynamic Duo You Think

The Trend: Dump baking soda and vinegar into your sink or toilet and watch the volcano fizz. So satisfying, right?

The Truth: It’s fun, sure—but not effective. The fizzing reaction neutralizes both ingredients, leaving you with salty water and zero cleaning power. “The chemical reaction is largely cosmetic,” says basically every chemist, ever.



4. Bleach-Soaked Toilet Paper on Grout = Cracked Tile

Courtesy of Brett Hondow

The Trend: Drench paper towels in bleach, line them up along grimy grout, and wait overnight.

The Truth: You’ll get some whitening… and possibly crumbling grout, damaged tile, or a hefty repair bill. Bleach is far too harsh for most porous surfaces. Skip the science fair.




5. Bleach + Dish Soap in the Drain: What Could Go Wrong?

The Trend: TikTokers pour bleach and dish soap into drains for a “deep clean.” Spoiler: it’s chaos in a cup.

The Truth: Some dish soaps contain ammonia. Mixed with bleach, that can produce chloramine gas, another respiratory hazard. Your lungs would rather you didn’t.



6. Magic Erasers on Leather and Car Interiors? Hard Pass.

The Trend: Scrub your leather seats or vinyl panels with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser for a fresh-car finish.

The Truth: Magic Erasers are micro-abrasive. They can strip finishes, scratch surfaces, and cause discoloration. Great for walls. Not for your ride.



7. Mopping the Walls with Detergent Pods

Courtesy of Michal Jarmoluk

The Trend: Boil a detergent pod, dunk a mop head, and swipe your walls for that "hotel clean" look.

The Truth: Just… why? This can damage paint, oversaturate drywall, and leave behind residue that attracts even more grime. Use a damp cloth and mild soap instead. Or better yet, read your paint can, as not all paints are even meant to be washed.






8. The Tide Pod Couch Scrubber

The Trend: Wrap a microfiber towel around a pot lid, dunk it in Tide and hot water, and “shave” your upholstery with it.

The Truth: This one looks effective— but, those tide pods are meant to be diluted with gallons and gallons of water. Not a single pot. So, that means that the chemicals in the detergent aren’t getting properly washed out of your couch. Between that and the potential to damage your skin if not diluted properly, just skip this one.  If you wouldn’t wash your sofa with a garden hose, don’t do this either.







9. Ice Cubes in the Garbage Disposal (with Baking Soda + Vinegar)

Courtesy of Sebastian Nikiel

The Trend: Dump ice, baking soda, and vinegar down the disposal to sharpen blades and clean it out.

The Truth: Ice doesn’t sharpen blades—it can jam or crack them. And again with the baking soda and vinegar combo—it’s mostly for show. Stick with a cleaner designed for disposals and rinse with hot water.


10. Self-Cleaning Appliances Take Care of Themselves

The Trend: “It has a self-cleaning button. That means I never have to touch it again!”

(Insert sad appliance noises here.)

The Truth: Dishwashers, ovens, washing machines—even vacuums—need regular manual cleaning. Filters, vents, seals, and gaskets don’t magically clean themselves. Appliances need regular maintenance to perform properly, as we often point out.




It’s tempting to trust the viral cleaning videos—fast, flashy, and seemingly effective. But a little bit of bleach foam and a camera angle doesn’t equal a clean, healthy home. Use the right products, in the right quantities, and clean the way your appliance manuals (and lungs) would prefer.

And if you’re not sure what’s safe for your fridge coils, oven vents, or washer drum? That’s what we’re here for.



If you're in the Frisco–Dallas–Allen area, Appliance Rescue Service is just a call away. We’ll keep your machines humming, your home sparkling, and your lungs chemical-free.

Common Appliance Issues That Could Ruin Your Holiday – And How to Prevent Them

Cooling Myths Every Homeowner Needs to Stop Believing

From freezer myths to A/C habits, here’s how smart homeowners protect their investment.

Let’s be honest—most of us don’t think twice about our fridge, freezer, or air conditioner until something breaks, or our energy bill suddenly spikes. But small habits can quietly impact the way these appliances work, especially when it comes to cooling your home and keeping your food fresh.




From overpacking the fridge to trusting the thermostat a little too much, there are a lot of common misconceptions still making the rounds. The good news? With just a few smart shifts, you can boost efficiency, extend the life of your appliances, and keep things running smoothly—without waiting for something to go wrong.





🧊 Refrigerator & Freezer Myths Debunked




Temperature Dial ≠ Exact Temp

Rather than trusting the dials on your refrigerator, take the time to get a thermometer. The dials that most fridges have aren’t precise readings, so it’s hard to tell if your fridge is cold enough.  (And no, despite what you’ve been told you can’t ‘feel’ the right temperature.)



Empty Space in Fridge = OK

It’s ok to have space in your fridge! Rather than overpacking your fridge, leave some space throughout. This is better for airflow, which keeps your fridge both cooler and more efficient. 



Regular Maintenance is Essential

Your fridge is one of the appliances in your home that absolutely needs regular maintenance. Take the time to clean the condenser coils, check the seals and double check the airflow. Doing so ensures a longer lifespan. 


Refreezing Food is Safe (if Properly Handled)

A bottom freezer that's not packed full and so there isn't frostbite

Provided your food has stayed at a safe temperature, which is going to vary from food to food,  it will be safe to refreeze it after it thaws. 




Coldest Setting ≠ Better Preservation

Keeping your fridge colder, isn’t always better. Many foods will freeze if your fridge is too cold, and it will affect the taste and texture. Instead, try keeping your fridge between 37 & 39 *F. 



Not All Produce Belongs in the Fridge

Some produce is damaged by the cold of your fridge, and instead needs to be stored in a cool, but not cold place. Some examples are bananas, tomatoes, onions and potatoes. All of these will last longer if they’re allowed to stay in a pantry. 




Fridges Still Need Cleaning

Just because your fridge is cold, doesn’t mean it’s free from bacteria. In order to keep your fridge clean and free from smells, make sure to clean the shelves and wipe up spills regularly. 




Frozen Food is Often Just as Nutritious

Frozen produce is often picked at peak ripeness. Long-term storage can degrade nutrients, but it's still a strong option.



Freezing Food Doesn't Reduce Quality (if done right)

Frozen produce is often picked at peak ripeness and then rushed to be flash frozen for the best taste and texture. To take the best care of your food, use airtight containers or vacuum seals. 




Most Things CAN Be Frozen

Most foods can actually be frozen. They might require some prepping, like blanching, ahead of time, but most foods can be frozen without trouble.  




Air Conditioning Myths Debunked

Lowering the Thermostat Won’t Cool Your Home Faster
It’s tempting to crank the thermostat way down on a hot day—but it won’t speed things up. Air conditioners cool at a steady pace, no matter what number you set. Setting the temp too low just overworks the system, wastes energy, and could even cause the coils to freeze.

Don’t Turn Off the A/C When You Leave for the Day
Shutting off your air conditioning completely while you’re out might sound like a money-saver, but it actually takes more energy to cool your home back down from scratch. Instead, raise the thermostat by 10 to 15 degrees when you leave—just enough to save energy without overheating your space.

Closing Vents in Unused Rooms Doesn’t Save Energy
Closing off vents in rooms you’re not using seems like a smart move, but it can actually throw off your system’s airflow. This creates pressure that makes your A/C work harder and less efficiently. Keep vents open to help air move evenly throughout your home.

It’s Not the A/C Making You Sick—It’s What’s Inside It
A properly maintained A/C system won’t make you sick. But a dirty filter or mold buildup definitely can. Poor indoor air quality can lead to allergy flare-ups and other respiratory issues. The solution? Regular filter changes and occasional deep cleaning to keep your air fresh and healthy.

Bigger Isn’t Better When It Comes to A/C Units
A larger unit isn’t necessarily more effective. If your A/C is too big for the space, it will cycle on and off too often without properly removing humidity. If it’s too small, it will struggle to keep up. The best performance comes from a unit that’s sized just right.

Fans Don’t Cool Rooms—They Cool People
Ceiling and standing fans don’t actually lower the temperature in a room. Instead, they move air around to create a wind-chill effect that helps you feel cooler. That’s why it makes sense to turn fans off when you leave a room—they’re not doing anything unless someone’s there to feel it.

A New A/C System Doesn’t Guarantee Lower Bills
Replacing an old system can improve efficiency—but only if it’s properly matched to your home. An oversized or undersized unit will still waste energy. Before making a big purchase, have a professional evaluate your space and recommend the right size and type for your needs.

Turning the A/C On and Off Throughout the Day Isn’t Efficient
It might seem smart to shut the A/C off when you’re not home, then flip it back on when you return—but that start-and-stop cycle uses more energy in the long run. It’s more efficient to set a steady temperature, or use a smart thermostat to make small, automated adjustments throughout the day.

Air Leaks Can Undermine Your Cooling
Even with doors and windows closed, cool air might still be escaping. Cracks around outlets, old window frames, or cable holes can all cause slow leaks. If your home feels harder to cool than it should, a professional energy audit can help you track down the problem spots.

Your Air Filter Needs More Frequent Changes Than You Think
Don’t wait a year to change your filter. Depending on your household—pets, allergies, or just everyday use—you should swap it out every one to three months. A clean filter helps your system run more efficiently and keeps the air inside your home healthier.

Where You Place Your Outdoor Unit Matters
If your A/C unit sits in direct sunlight or near heat-producing appliances, it’s going to work harder than it has to. Ideally, the outdoor unit should be in a shaded spot with room to breathe—good airflow helps it perform better and last longer.

Basic Upkeep Isn’t a Substitute for Professional Maintenance
Wiping down vents and changing filters are great habits, but there’s more going on inside your system than you can see. Regular professional maintenance helps catch small issues before they turn into expensive repairs—and keeps your system running at peak performance year after year.





Keeping your cool—literally—comes down to knowing how your appliances work and giving them the care they need. Whether it's clearing a little space in your fridge, cleaning those often-forgotten coils, or skipping the extreme thermostat settings, these small updates can make a big difference.

And if your fridge, freezer, or other major appliances are acting up, the team at Appliance Rescue Service is here to help. We specialize in appliance repair and maintenance—not HVAC systems—but if you're in the Frisco, Dallas, or Allen area, we’d be glad to get your kitchen or laundry room back in working order.

Because comfort at home shouldn’t come with surprises—or sudden breakdowns.

10 Energy Myths Costing You More Than You Think

Don’t let outdated advice keep your electric bill high—here’s what actually works.

Sometimes we all need to be more efficient. Sometimes, like when we look at our electric bill during the peak of summer. So you go online and look for 'tricks to reduce my electricity bill.' We all do it. 




Unfortunately, with how connected the internet is, it's much easier to spread 'tips and tricks' that don't actually do anything to help you. So this week we're looking at what you can actually rely on to cut down on your energy bill. We're debunking some myths that have been around for years, and others that have only come about thanks to the internet and social sites. 




Turning Devices Off Stops All Energy Use

Courtesy of Andrea Piacquadio

This one used to be true. But if you look at your various devices, many of them have lights, clocks and wifi. Those are typically on, even if the device is off. This is called 'vampire' power, or 'phantom' power. If you want to turn them off completely, we suggest using power strips or unplugging things entirely. 




Leds Aren’t As Bright Or Pleasant As Incandescents

While we can't say anything about how pleasant you might find something, modern LEDs are very adjustable. They can be tuned for both brightness and color temperature, based on what you like. Bonus: they use up to 90% less energy and last longer than an incandescent bulb. 



Dimming Incandescent Lights Significantly Cuts Costs

This one is a little tricky. Yes, dimming your incandescent lights DOES cut costs. The problem is that it's not proportional. If you want to be more effective AND have more control over it, switch over to LEDs or CFLs. 




Solar Panels Don’t Work In Cloudy Or Cold Climates

Courtesy of Michael_Pointner

This is another one that seems like it might be the case, but fortunately, it's not. In fact, solar panels just rely on the fact that the sun is up, not necessarily direct sunlight. They are in fact effective year-round in most locations. 




Cranking The Thermostat Heats Or Cools A Home Faster

We who live in Texas, wish this was true. Systems will heat and cool at a constant speed, because the size of your house hasn't changed at all. A higher setting is only going to make your HVAC run longer and use more energy.




Closing Vents In Unused Rooms Saves Energy

While this one seems like it makes sense, have you ever tried it? What ends up happening is the pressure on the system is increased instead, because the systems isn't balanced any longer. When each system is designed it's meant to work as a whole. If you're looking for efficiency, you're better off leaving all vents open, and looking into a system meant for zoning. 


All New Appliances Are Energy Efficient

Efficiency and tests for efficiency can vary wildly from one company to another. As of right now, you're better off looking for something with the Energy Star label, which tests according to a set of standards and shows them on their website.

Handwashing Dishes Saves Energy Over Using A Dishwasher

How many times did we all hear this one growing up? And for many years it was true. However, modern dishwashers, especially those with the Energy Star tag, use far less water for an entire load of dishes. 





The Shape Of A Freezer Doesn’t Matter

Unsurprisingly, this one is untrue. Think about a chest freezer versus a French door refrigerator. The opening for a chest freezer is much smaller than that of a French door refrigerator. So, when you open the freezer, there's less cold air that's able to escape at once. If less air escapes, less has to be replaced and energy is saved. 





Efficiency Savings Are Too Small To Matter

That depends entirely on you. The question isn't "will I save anything" it's "how much do you consider worth it?" An extra $200 a year? That's only saving  $16 a month. By making changes around your home,  you can and will see changes, as cumulative savings are substantial. 




Energy myths might seem like harmless household wisdom, but over time, they can quietly chip away at your budget and even shorten the lifespan of your appliances. Whether it's believing that handwashing dishes saves more water, assuming that all new appliances are energy efficient, or thinking the shape of your freezer doesn't matter, these little misunderstandings can lead to higher utility bills and more wear and tear on your machines. The good news? Once you separate fact from fiction, it's surprisingly easy to make smarter choices that help your home run more efficiently—and save you money month after month.

If you're in the Frisco, Dallas, or Allen area and want to be sure your appliances are doing their job without wasting energy (or costing you extra), Appliance Rescue Service is here to help.

Are Your Appliance Habits Hurting Your Home? Take the Quiz to Find Out

These simple mistakes could be shortening the life of your appliances.

What happens when you do something day after day? It becomes a habit. What happens when that habit isn’t good for you? It leads to problems. The same can be said for your appliances. The same way that habits can be bad for you, they can be harmful to your appliances too. But lists are boring, so we’re doing a quiz this week. For each question you have two options, and they’ll pop open with an answer once you click. Let us know in the comments on Facebook how you do!

Should You Overstock Your Refrigerator to Keep More Food Handy?

True

False

Overstocking your fridge might seem like a good idea now when you have lots of food, but it’s not a great idea when that food goes bad. When you overstock your fridge, air can’t move around, which means your fridge works harder to cool off.

Is Routinely Cleaning Your Condenser Coils Important?

True

If your condenser coils are allowed to crust over with dust and grime, your fridge chokes. It can’t breathe and it has to work harder to cool off.

False

Forgetting to Clean the Water Filter is Not a Big Deal

True

False

Just like the condenser coils, letting the filter fill with grime means your fridge is working harder than it needs to. Additionally, it means that you will be drinking that grime in either your water or ice.

You Can Clean Your Fridge on an “As Needed” Basis and Be Fine

True

False

It depends on how often ‘as needed’ is for you. If that’s about every two - four weeks, sure! If it’s more than that? Not so much. Keeping your fridge clean inside and out allows it to function more efficiently and to ensure that your food stays good.

There is No “Proper” Way to Store Food

True

False

Yeah, that one is definitely false. Food has two different things that you need to account for when it comes to storage. The first is having your fridge and freezer at the right temperatures. The second is following a food safe storage set up, to ensure that you and your family stay healthy.

Door Seals Can Go Bad

True

If you chose this, you’re right! Door seals can crack, crumble and rot if not cared for. This means that you need to look after them and keep them clean.

False

You Only Need to Clean Your Oven Once in a While

True

False

Oh so false. Think about how air has to circulate around your fridge, and it struggles if the fridge isn’t clean. The oven struggles with the same thing. What’s worse though is that this uneven heating causes the oven to cook unevenly. Additionally if not clean, your oven has to burn off whatever is on it.

More Detergent Is Better in the Dishwasher, right?

True

False

Have you seen those photos of soap bubbles filling a kitchen? That’s what happens you overfill the dishwasher.

Emptying Your Pockets Isn’t Actually Needed

True

False

If you don’t empty your pockets before washing clothes, metal items like coins and clips can damage the coating on the inside of your washer.

Is There Such a Thing as Too Much Detergent for Your Washer?

True

Yup! Just like your dishwasher, you can use too much detergent. Not only do you have the possibility of having soapsuds everywhere, you also have to worry about build up if the washer cannot rinse all of it.

False

Cleaning Out the Lint Trap Every 6 Months is Often Enough

True

False

Sure, if you only use your dryer every 5 months, that would be ok. The lint trap should be cleaned out at the very least once a week, if not every time you use it. The lint trap not only is a potential for fire, but if it’s not cleaned out regularly, it also worsens how the dryer works.

You Should Wash Rubber Backed Mats on Cold

True

If rubber backed mats are washed on hot, they will very quickly start to break down and break apart in your washer and dryer.

False

Filling Your Dishwasher to the Max is Normal

True

False

This is one of the times when less is more. If you fill your dishwasher to roughly ¾ of the way full every time, your dishwasher will last longer than if you overfilled it.

You Can Skip Regular Maintenance Because ‘It’s working fine!”

True

False

Regular maintenance is called ‘maintenance’ for a reason. When problems are left though, it is far more likely that they grow from small issues to large problems.

It’s Fine to Throw Out Manuals For New Appliances

True

False

We’ll say that this one CAN be true, if you have a backup or a digital version. However, if you don’t, then you shouldn’t throw yours out. If you need to look something up, if you end up getting an error code, you’ll want that manual.

Leaving Your Oven On for Hours Is A Great Way to Stay Warm

True

False

It might be good for warmth, but it’s going to be bad for your oven and your electrical bill. On top of that

Slamming Appliance Doors - it’s fine, right?

True

False

Your refrigerator is not like your car. Nor are any of your other appliances. They are all carefully tuned and weighted to shut carefully. Slamming them can actually damage not only the door, but the seals as well, and possibly knock some of the interior pieces out of alignment.

Even the most careful appliance owners can miss a step now and then — but the good news is, it’s never too late to get back on track. If your fridge, oven, washer, or any other appliance isn’t running quite right, the team at Appliance Rescue Service is here to help.
