Hi all,


started "spring cleaning" in my kitchen this AM. *Am stuck on
refrigerator. *Every one I've owned has had the coils on the back where
it was simple to just pull the fridge out, quick swipe with dust brush
on vacuum, et voila. *Well apparently this fridge has the coils
*underneath...* how does one clean those without tipping the fridge on
its side? *Not enough room to get any vacuum attachments under there.
Looks like the previous owners of the house never cleaned it either.

leaf blower... * LOL! *get a skinny tube for your vac. *Even a piece of
1/2" pvc adapted to your hose with UAT (universal adapting tape) will do
the job.

I've had good success rolling up a piece of heavy card stock into a
funnel then taping it together and then taping it to my vacuum hose.
works pretty well.
