At The Quarters Apartment Homes, each apartment has ceiling fans that match the apartment’s professional color scheme. Over time, though, all ceiling fan blades tend to gather dust and need to be cleaned. Luckily for our residents, we have provided a few simple instructions with how to properly clean these fans blades and keep dust to a minimum.
To clean your ceiling fan blades at The Quarters, follow these steps:
- Start by taping over the fan’s wall switch, and taping the fan’s pull cord to one of the fan blades, to prevent accidentally turning the fan on
- Drop a sheet, cloth, or towel onto your floor to catch any dust that may fall
- Stand on a sturdy step ladder underneath the fan, ensuring that you stand high enough to be able to see over the fan blades
- Use a wet paper towel or cloth to wipe down each blade of the fan
- Use a dry rag to dry each fan blade and ensure that you’ve removed all dust from the blades
- If standing on a ladder seems daunting, consider cleaning your ceiling fan blades with a long vacuum attachment or another tool designed to clean hard-to-reach areas
Cleaning your ceiling fan blades once every few months should do the trick and keep too much dust from gathering and spreading throughout your apartment.
