How do I clean my Lasko fan or heater?

Keeping a Lasko fan or heater clean ensures optimal performance and extends its lifespan. For a Lasko fan, the cleaning process is relatively straightforward. First, make sure the fan is unplugged to ensure safety. You can start by gently wiping down the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. If the fan has a removable front grill, carefully detach it according to the manufacturer's instructions. Most Lasko fan grills can be cleaned with soapy water and a soft cloth or sponge. Be sure to rinse it well and let it dry completely before reattaching it to the fan. For cleaning a Lasko heater, the process is similar. Unplug the heater and use a damp cloth to wipe its surface, while paying attention to any dust buildup. If the heater has an accessible filter, check it regularly for dirt accumulation and clean or replace it as needed. It is important not to immerse the heater in water or use any abrasive materials that could damage the surface. For detailed cleaning instructions specific to your model, it may be beneficial to consult the resources available on the current Lasko website.
