Dusting is important for cleanliness and health in your home or place of business. Most of us vacuum the floors and dust the shelves regularly, but how often do you think about your ceilings or structures above eye-level? If your ceilings are high, it’s tempting to wait until the dust falls to a more accessible level before removing it. However, dust does not just fall. It enters the atmosphere and floats around before settling. During this time, people are breathing it in. With the right equipment, you can remove it from high ceilings and dispose of it, ensuring a healthier environment in your home or business.
Cleaning a high ceiling can be dangerous so you must be sure to make your safety and those around you paramount. Do not try to use cleaning equipment of any kind from the top of a ladder or set of steps. Use equipment with a long enough reach to allow you to remain standing on the floor. The aim of ceiling dusting is to make your home healthy, and you defeat this purpose if you break a bone in the process.
Vacuuming is the best way to remove dust from just about any surface. The vacuum sucks the dust into a secure container. This ensures that it has no chance of escaping into the air or getting onto another hard to reach surface once it is loosened. When vacuuming a ceiling, use the dusting brush to clean the point where the ceiling and wall meet and a good-quality hard floor tool to vacuum the remainder of the ceiling area. In the case of a high ceiling, however, you will need to extend your vacuum cleaner’s reach.
Good vacuum cleaners come with one or two extension wands or telescopic wands. If these are not long enough you can purchase one or two extra extension wands for most models. If it proves difficult to obtain the same diameter of wand, purchase the required number of wands with a different diameter along with a vacuum cleaner adapter to provide the necessary link. These adapters can also attach a vacuum tool with one diameter to a vacuum wand with another.
Once you have a wand long enough to get to the highest points in your home, you should have no issue keeping your ceiling and other high places clean.
