                    Americans love fried food - but we don't love the additional fat and calories that go along with it. However, new
                    technology is offering a solution that allows you to indulge in the taste of your favorite fried goodies in a much
                    healthier way - air&nbsp;frying.
                </p>

                <p class="avb-typography__paragraph dsg-block-26__paragraph">
                    And, to make it even easier, GE is now offering an oven that has this feature built-in, so you won't have to worry about
                    a separate air fryer unit taking up counter space. When you choose a GE Profile Smart Built-In Convection Single Wall
                    Oven model, you'll enjoy a number of features, including an air frying setting. You can achieve crispy, never greasy
                    fried food results, right in your oven and without the&nbsp;oil.

                    At its core, induction cooking uses electromagnetic magic &mdash; no flames, no glowing coils. Beneath a sleek glass-ceramic
                    surface, copper coils generate a magnetic field. When you place a compatible pot or pan (think any pan…just magnetic) on
                    the cooktop, this field triggers a surge of electric currents within the cookware itself. The result? Rapid molecular
                    friction that heats your pan directly, bypassing the cooktop surface entirely. It’s like turning your skillet into its
                    own heat source-without scorching the cooking surface. Control the pan directly, not thermal burners multiple layers
                    down! Rapid up, rapid down. Why the&nbsp;shift?

                    Although not everyone has fully embraced the recent shift toward induction cooking, the industry is steadily making the
                    transition easier. Most cookware is now compatible, and entry-level prices continue to drop. Additionally, manufacturers
                    are redesigning induction ranges to resemble traditional gas stoves, complete with familiar knobs for a classic look and&nbsp;feel.

                    If your washing machine smells less-than-pleasant, you may wonder if it actually is doing its job of cleaning your
                    clothing. Odors occur more often with front-loading machines because the door seals when closed. Too much detergent and
                    liquid fabric softener buildup are usually the root cause. The good news is, it can usually be cleaned with products
                    designed for this purpose. Morehouse Appliances carries products made to remove the buildup that is holding moisture and
                    causing the odor. You should also leave the door ajar when not in use to allow the washer to&nbsp;breath.

                    While we’re on the subject of washing machines, if yours wobbles it can make a lot of noise and won’t spin your clothes
                    efficiently. Sometimes, it’s because not all the feet of the washing machine are solidly on the floor. You can fix this
                    by rotating the legs and lifting or lowering each corner until it is straightened. A small level can help you ensure
                    this. Another reason your machine may be wobbling is that the load isn’t even. Open the lid, and move the laundry around
                    so it’s evenly distributed in the machine. If that doesn’t solve the issue it might be time to call Morehouse, there
                    could be a problem with the machine. Not fixing the problem could lead to more expensive repairs in the long&nbsp;run.

                    If you have a gas stove, there will likely come a time when you hear the ignitor clicking, but the burner doesn’t light.
                    If that happens, the first thing to do is ensure your burner cap is in the proper position. This can also happen if
                    you’ve had water boil over or a spill recently. Wait for it to dry out and then try again. If that isn’t the problem,
                    removing the burner cap and cleaning the cap and base can sometimes fix the problem. You can also use a small wire brush
                    or steel wool to carefully clean the ignitor post. If cleaning doesn’t help, you can call Morehouse and we’ll check it
                    out for&nbsp;you.

                    Garbage disposals are equipped with an overload trip, so if the unit overheats, jams, runs for too long a period, or
                    experiences any other problem, it may just need to be reset. Ensure the switch is in the “off” position. Locate the
                    reset button on the disposal (usually on the bottom of the unit) and press. If the button does not remain compressed,
                    try again in ten minutes or so. If your disposal is making a humming rather than grinding sound and it’s jammed, you
                    might need to manually turn the blades with the hex key – note, if this is an option, the hex key will have been
                    included with your machine. After turning the blades, press the reset button and it should start working again. If it
                    still doesn’t work, do NOT reach into the system, as that could be extremely dangerous. Stay on the safe side and
                    schedule an appointment with&nbsp;Morehouse.

Top 5 Common Appliance Concerns & Tips to Remedy Them

                    Clothes dryers are one of the leading causes of residential fires every year in the U.S. Almost half of these fires were
                    caused by "operational deficiency", meaning a dryer and venting system that was not properly maintained. The most common
                    causes of this are improper venting materials such as too much flexible venting being used, crushed venting behind the
                    dryer, lint buildup in the venting system and outdoor wall caps with bird screens (which are not allowed by code) that
                    collect lint and reduce airflow. The reduced airflow prevents the dyer from properly exhausting the steam created by the
                    dying process. If your dryer takes longer than it should to dry, the most likely cause is improper or clogged venting,
                    which is unsafe and costing you up to twice as much to dry your&nbsp;clothes.
                </p>

                <p class="avb-typography__paragraph dsg-block-26__paragraph">
                    Today, the only place flexible venting is permitted is to connect from your dryer to the venting system and may only be
                    a maximum of 8 ft. in length. All other venting should be rigid aluminum vent pipe with a smooth interior. Heavier
                    galvanized pipe and PVC pipe are not allowed as they will not warm up like the aluminum and therefore cause condensation
                    of the steam from the dryer which causes rapid lint&nbsp;build&#8209;up.

                    This is to be used between the dryer and connections through walls. It has a smooth interior and maintains a four-inch
                    diameter, and the maximum length is eight feet. This style of venting can be difficult to work with since it is easily
                    crushed and does not return to shape. If it gets crushed, it needs to be&nbsp;replaced.
