Keep your electric lawn tool high and dry If a full-scale garage clean-up is on


your spring cleaning list, take the oppor- tunity to create some storage space for your electric lawn tools. Tossing your leaf blowers and hedge trimmers into a corner of a dirty garage isn’t the best way to keep them operat- ing their best or to help them last longer. Once your garage is clutter-free, con- sider hanging some mounting boards or nailing a few 2-by-4s to the walls so you can hang your expensive equipment out of harm’s way.


Before you hang your string trimmer and electric saw--or even your low-tech clippers and spades--clean them. Work off stubborn grease with a kitchen scrubbing pad, and then use a damp cloth to wipe grass, grease and dirt from your equipment after every use. A thorough cleaning before your first springtime use will help prevent clogs and mishaps. An inspection will reveal frayed cords or faulty parts.


Dry your tools completely with an absorbent towel before you hang them after each use. Al- lowing them to air-dry could cause them to rust. Choose a spot in your garage that won’t get wet--away from spigots, the garage door and any


leaks. As an extra precaution, throw a plastic tarp over them to prevent moisture from finding them between uses.


Spring A/C check is well worth the money The best way to save on


energy expenses this summer might be to pay $100 or so to have your air conditioning system inspected right now. A professional HVAC technician will inspect all of the components of your


system and let you know if any need repairing so you’ll have a heads-up before the cooling season begins and you’re stuck without any air


conditioning on the hottest day of the summer with an unexpected breakdown. A note: It’s usually cheaper to pay per inspection rather than to sign an annual contract for a/c and heating mainte- nance.


Either way, paying a pro to maintain your heating and cooling system is worth the money.
