Ok who has an easy way to clean the fins and pipes for hot water baseboard registers.!!!!

I wanna play outside but this has to be done put it off last year cuz of carpal tunnel surgery.

Good luck JJ, I remember having to clean then and I never found an easy way to do it.

Ok, off to get ready to go to the flu clinic, so see if I am one of the lucky ones to get the shot.

Only way I found was vacuum out what I can then turn shop vac hose around to blow out the rest, use squirt bottle to squirt water on to wash off and the blow again to dry.

And CHOKE, CHOKE, Choke on the dust til it settles then vacuum and dust.
What a pain in the tush.

But thanks anyway. Gonna get rich when I figuere something out. LOL

JJ, I use a soft bristle brush and a dustbuster to clean the registers for the central heat and air. the brush loosens it and the dust buster sucks it up before it can scatter everywhere. That won't get inside, but it might make the rest a little easier.

Thanks Moon.
I tried a small brush and the vacuum, took it off the top of it, but the pipe that the fins are hooked onto are so dirty....from years of just vacuuming them... that I know it is making it hard for that heat to get from the pipe to the fins. Got one vacuum blowing while the other is sucking so not real bad.

If those darn fins weren't so sharp and didn't bend so easy it would be easier. Keep telling myself once its done it won't be so bad the next time.

It is amazing how much dust can accumilate between those little fins. thinking if I get one of those lint brushes like you use to clean the dryer vent that might fit between them and not scatter dust so bad.

Will be worth it if house stays warmer for less $$$. If not good bet they will not get this clean again!!!

Look, the lilacs were budding this last weekend.....
Oh those poor plants don't know what is going in with this weather!

Hey Jean, Little cabbages, YUMMMMM

Those brussels look beautiful!!!

Thank you venice, and they were good too ^_^

Ok, need to go get my shot

Brainstorm here!!

Paintbrush should get between fins without bending them.

Yuck kassy!! Did you get your vaccination??

Here's some more progress.

The front wall is up!

Looking good Dave. Won't be too much longer before you can start on the roof....should be fairly smooth sailing from there.

Me too, Venice....love those sprouts....grin

A paint brush oughta work really well, JJ. It will be a little faster, if not any better....grin


Those are sure pretty Kassy....didn't even try to grow any this year....too hot too long and too wet....grin

Hey Dave I'll help you if you help me. :)

WALL!!!! We have a wall!

Good evening Dixie...how's life among the Poo babies? grin

Trina, why did I know you were going to be in the Piggy Forum!!!!

Hey Dixie! I suppose the little Poos are already in bed by now.

Dave, I meant to ask you -- Do you grow your own vanilla beans?

Hey Moon,Hey V. Yeah the Poo villa is quiet now. They have all gone to sleepy town.

hey I ended up in the piggy swap completely by accident like 5hours before it started! I have learned there are just certain members of DG you just do what they say they know what they are talking about...LIke Dave and Moon

Amen sister T. Glad you enjoyed your trip to the piggy swap!!

hi all! worked all day....I missed a lot! How is everybody?
JJ I make the kids clean those hot water baseboards. It's one of their jobs.

The outside or the inside Lynnie?

Night Dixie! Of corse I'm at the Piggy swap, where else can I get 200 packs of seeds for about $6?

the outside....I vacuum the inside..or get the kids to do it....hahaha

I was cleaning the fins and pipe. What a job.
Maybe I can borrow the girls for Thansgiving break and they can do the upstairs ones for me????

This old house is to dusty I guess.
I have vacuumed them before but they were still awfully dirty so I took them apart and used the shop vac to blow the rest out then used bottle of water and walpaper brush and washed them.

Wouldn't have noticed all the dirt if I hadn't been sucking up all those darn beetles along the walls.

oh my husband got the monster bug finally!
the dust is definitely worse in winter when the heat's on.......

Glad he found the bug.
Did the daughter go back to school or still sick?
