CARE OF YOUR APARTMENT Sample Clauses

CARE OF YOUR APARTMENT. FLOORS For daily or weekly cleaning of hardwood floors, use a dust mop. Certain spots, such as those around the front door to the bathroom, usually become soiled quickly. Wipe the spots with a damp cloth, being careful to use very little water. Wooden Floors should NOT be washed with excessive amounts of water at any time, as it warps the wood and destroys the finish. Use a mild soap only if necessary. Then wipe dry and apply a paste wax. There are special preparations on the market now that contain both a cleaner and a wax. Cement floors should be washed with a mild soap and water, then rinsed and wiped dry. Tile or ceramic floors should be washed with lukewarm water and mild soap, then rinsed and wiped dry. Do not use any form of wax on these floors. The legs of beds and other pieces of furniture sometimes mar floors. Glass or rubber caps under the legs will prevent this. They cost a few cents each and are worth the expense. When you vacate the apartment, be careful not to scratch the floors. This could be a Tenant charge. Carpeted floors should be vacuumed at least twice weekly. At least once every 2 years they should be professionally steam cleaned. In case of spilled food or liquids, use a stain remover made for carpets or warm water and mild detergent.
