I ka wā e pili ana i nā huahana hoʻomaʻemaʻe e pili ana i ke kaiapuni no ka home, ʻo nā mea mua e hiki mai ana i ka noʻonoʻo, ʻo ia paha ka vīnega keʻokeʻo a me ka soda bakena. Akā, ʻaʻole mākou i kaupalena ʻia i kēia mau mea ʻelua wale nō; ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, aia kekahi mau huahana hoʻomaʻemaʻe e pili ana i ke kaiapuni i loaʻa nā ʻano hoʻohana like ʻole a puni ka home a i kekahi mau hihia ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hana.
ʻO kēlā mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻōmaʻomaʻo i kapa ʻia ʻo "citric acid" e hoʻoluhi iki paha iā ʻoe i ka wā mua. Akā, he mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe hale waikawa kaulana ia i noho a puni no nā kenekulia—i hoʻokaʻawale mua ʻia mai ka wai lemona i ka hopena o nā makahiki 1700. No laila pehea e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ai ka waikawa citric? Ua hōʻuluʻulu mākou i ʻehiku mau ʻano hoʻomaʻemaʻe home e kōkua iā ʻoe e hoʻohana pono iā ia.
Ma mua o ko kākou luʻu ʻana i loko o nā hoʻohana ʻana o ka waikawa citric, pono kākou e hoʻomaopopo mua i ke ʻano o ia mea. ʻO kēia pauka, i loaʻa mai nā hua citrus, he mau waiwai hoʻomaʻemaʻe like me ka waikawa citric maʻamau, akā me ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi. He waikawa ia, e maʻalahi ai ka wehe ʻana i ka limescale, a he hopena bleaching hoʻi. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ua ʻōlelo pinepine ʻia ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he pani no ka vīnega keʻokeʻo i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia.
Eia nō naʻe, aia nā ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā mea ʻelua. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Kauka Joanna Buckley, ka luna hoʻonaʻauao ma ka Royal Society of Chemistry: "ʻO ka waikawa citric a me ka vīnega he mau mea hana nui i loko o nā mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe hale he nui, a he kūpono nā mea ʻelua. ʻO ka pH o ka vīnega ma waena o 2 a me 3, e lilo ia i waikawa ikaika - ʻo ka haʻahaʻa o ka pH, ʻoi aku ka waikawa. ʻO ka waikawa citric (e like me ka mea i loaʻa i nā hua citrus) he pH kiʻekiʻe iki aʻe, no laila ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ka waikawa. ʻO ka hopena, he emi iki ka pilikia o ka hōʻino ʻana i nā ʻili palupalu, a he bonus hou o ka waiho ʻana i kou home e ʻala hou ana, ma mua o ka hale kūʻai iʻa a me ka ʻuala palai!
Eia nō naʻe, he mea ʻawaʻawa nō ka waikawa citric a no laila ʻaʻole kūpono ia no nā ʻili āpau. E like me ka loaʻa ʻana o 7 mau wahi ʻaʻole pono e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻia me ka vīnega, ʻaʻole kūpono ka waikawa citric no ka pōhaku maoli, nā papahele lāʻau a me nā ʻili. ʻAʻole kūpono hoʻi ka Aluminiuma.
Ma waho aʻe o ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i ka hale, hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ka waikawa citric i ka kuke ʻana, ma ke ʻano he mea ʻala, a no ka mālama ʻana i ka meaʻai. Eia nō naʻe, e nānā mau ma mua i ka kūpono o ka brand āu e koho ai no ka kuke ʻana. He brand kaulana ʻo Dri-Pak, akā ʻaʻole "palekana i ka meaʻai" kēia ʻōpala, no laila pono e hoʻohana wale ʻia no ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana.
ʻOiai he palekana ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka waikawa citric, ua ʻōlelo ʻia e komo i nā mīkina lima i ka wā e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ai me ia e pale i kou ʻili. Eia kekahi, pono ʻoe e komo i nā aniani palekana a me kahi pale maka e pale aku ai i ka hanu ʻana i ka waikawa citric.
E like me ka vīnega keʻokeʻo i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻoheheʻe i ka waikawa citric e hana i mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻili. E kāwili wale i 2.5 punetēpē o ka waikawa citric me 500 ml o ka wai mahana i loko o kahi ʻōmole pīpī hakahaka, e lulu maikaʻi, a hoʻohana i ka hui hopena e pīpī i nā papahele laminate, nā countertops plastik a me ke kila ma kou home.
E ʻoluʻolu e hoʻomaopopo he hopena caustic kēia, no laila mai hoʻohana ia mea ma luna o ka pōhaku maoli a i ʻole nā ​​​​​​ʻili lāʻau.
He mea hoʻohemo i nā mea ʻala ka vīnega, akā like ka maikaʻi o ka waikawa citric. ʻO ka mea mua, e hoʻopiha i ka ipu hao i ka hapalua me ka wai a hoʻā i ke ahi. E hoʻopau i ka mana ma mua o ka paila ʻana o ka wai; ʻo ka pahuhopu ka mālama ʻana i ka wai i ka mahana.
E wehe i ke kaula o ka ipu hao, e hoʻohui pono i 2 punetēpē o ka waikawa citric i ka hui ʻana a waiho no 15-20 mau minuke e hana (e hōʻoia e waiho i kahi memo i ʻole e hoʻohana kekahi i kēia manawa!). E ninini i ka wai hoʻoheheʻe a hoʻolapalapa i kahi ʻāpana wai hou e wehe i nā koena āpau.
Inā ʻano hina iki kou mau keʻokeʻo a ʻaʻohe ou lemona ma ka lima, hiki i ka waikawa citric ke kōkua. E hoʻohui wale i ʻekolu punetēpē o ka waikawa citric me kahi ʻehā lita o ka wai mahana a hoʻoulu a hiki i ka wā e heheʻe ai. A laila e hoʻomohu i ke kapa i ka pō a holoi i ka mīkini i ka lā aʻe. E kōkua nō hoʻi kēia i ka mālama mua ʻana i kekahi mau ʻila.
E hoʻohana i ka waikawa citric e hoʻihoʻi i nā kīʻaha aniani i maʻalahi i ka unahi a me ka noe. E kāpīpī wale i ka waikawa citric i loko o ka ʻāpana detergent o kāu mea holoi kīʻaha a holo i kahi pōʻaiapuni maʻamau me ka ʻole o ka detergent, e kau ana i nā kīʻaha ma ka papa luna. Ke pau ʻoe, e hoʻi hou kāu mau kīʻaha aniani i kona ʻano mua, a he pōmaikaʻi hou kēia o ka wehe ʻana i ka unahi o kāu mea holoi kīʻaha i ka manawa like.
No ka wehe ʻana i ka limescale huna mai kou lua, e ninini wale i kahi bākeke wai wela i loko o ke pola a hoʻohui i kahi kīʻaha o ka waikawa citric. E hoʻoheheʻe a hana no hoʻokahi hola ma ka liʻiliʻi (ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka pō) ma mua o ka holoi ʻana i ka lā aʻe.
E mālama i kou mau aniani a me nā puka makani i ke ʻano hou me ka vīnega keʻokeʻo, akā me ka ʻole o ke ʻala! E hoʻomākaukau wale i ka mea hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻili e like me ka mea i wehewehe ʻia ma luna, e pīpī ma luna o kou mau aniani a me nā puka makani, a laila e holoi me ka lole aniani microfiber ma kahi neʻe pōʻai mai luna a lalo. Inā paʻakikī ke wehe i ka limescale, e waiho no kekahi mau minuke ma mua o ka holoi ʻana.
He ala kaulana ka Lemon e hoʻomaʻemaʻe ai i kāu microwave, akā hana maikaʻi ka waikawa citric! I loko o kahi pola palekana microwave, e kāwili i 2 punetēpē o ka waikawa citric me 500 ml o ka wai wela. E hoʻoulu a hiki i ka wā e hoʻoheheʻe loa ʻia ai, a laila e hoʻomehana i loko o ka microwave a hiki i ka puka ʻana o ka mahu i loko. E pani i ka puka microwave a waiho no 5-10 mau minuke. Ma hope o ka hoʻomaʻalili ʻana o ka wai, e holoi i kekahi wai i koe me kahi lole palupalu. Ke hoʻomaʻalili lawa ka wai, hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻohana ia mea e holoi i kāu microwave.
Ke komo nei ʻo Good Housekeeping i nā papahana kūʻai aku pili like ʻole, ʻo ia hoʻi, hiki iā mākou ke loaʻa nā komisina ma nā huahana i koho ʻia e ka hoʻoponopono i kūʻai ʻia ma o kā mākou mau loulou i nā pūnaewele kūʻai aku.
