Your plasma TV is one of your biggest investments. An average plasma TV can last up to 20 years when properly taken care. Below are some simple things that you can do to ensure that your plasma TV serves you without problems for as long as possible.Clean your plasma TV set on a regular basis
You should clean your TV at least twice a month. Make sure you use a cleaner that is safe for TV screens and a microfiber cloth to avoid scratching the screen. However, don’t make the television wet when cleaning it, it is best to spray the cleaner on the cloth and then wipe the screen. Also, dust the rest of the TV with a soft duster or wipe the dust away with a clean, dry microfiber cloth.
Adjust your TV’s contrast setting
Adjust your contrast setting to as low as possible. Set it where you can get quality pictures while minimizing contrast to avoid premature burnout.
Use a surge protector
Power surges can easily damage your plasma TV. To keep it safe from power surges, you should invest in a surge protector. A surge protector not only protects your TV from damage but also helps to prevent fire hazards. All of your other home entertainment equipment should also be plugged into a surge protector.
Use your TV in moderation
If you want to enjoy your plasma TV for a long time, you have to use it in moderation. Never leave the TV on when there is no one watching. This will help to prevent overheating, burn-in of images on the screen, and premature burnout.
Keep your TV away from excessive humidity and heat
Keep your plasma TV in a cool and dry place. Excess heat or condensation can damage the electronic components that are inside the TV.
These tips should help you keep your TV functioning properly for a long time. And if you would like assistance with this task, as well as all your other house cleaning, then do not hesitate to contact The Maids of Scottsdale, in Phoenix, Arizona.
