Tips: - Running your exhaust fan while you shower will improve the longevity of any wood products in your bathroom.
- Don't pour hot water into your toilet -- the sudden temperature change can crack the bowl.
- You can at least double the life of your water heater by replacing the anode rod before it dissolves completely -- every four years or so, depending on your water quality.
- To give new life to those grout joints, try a solution of one part bleach to three parts water. Use an old toothbrush and scrub the joints clean.
- Putting salt on your fireplace logs will reduce the amount of soot produced.
