Apparently, homeowners should clean the inside of radiators once a year.
Fabulous' Associate Editor, Rebecca Miller, is cleaning-obsessed. She shares her thoughts on this cleaning hack.
"My standards of cleanliness, and tidiness are impeccably high. People have walked into my flat and told me it looks like a show home. I am so determined to keep it looking brand new, that I am constantly cleaning.
But one thing I have never cleaned is the inside of my radiators.
I've lived at my flat for nearly 5 years, and not once have I thought about blowing hot air down the vents, or getting wire cleaners to fiddle about and disrupt the dust, never mind, throwing a Zoflora solution down the inside.
However, whilst it might seem like the last cleaning chore to do in the summer, it is important to get it done before you start using your radiators.
Heating expert, previously told The Sun that if you have clogged up radiators, you could end up paying £65-£119 extra a year on heating bills, because they have to work twice as hard to pump heat into your home.
With this in mind, I'm off to clean the inside of my radiators - brb..."
