• In cold weather, always clear your windshield of ice and snow before activating your wiper blades. Ice can shorten the life span of most wiper blades significantly. • Every time you gas up your vehicle, take a moment to clean your windshield and the wiper blades. You can run the squeegee sponge over the wiper blade or use a paper towel.
Get More Life Out of Your Windshield Wiper Blades
• Watch your washer fluid levels and top it off regularly. When you run a cleaning cycle without washer fluid, the wiper blades deteriorate.
How do you know when it’s time to replace your blades? The first sign is when they start streaking. However, in some cases, streaking may be caused by dirt or other grime stuck to the blades. If they continue to streak or skip after cleaning, they need to be replaced. Thankfully, wiper blades are typically the least expensive and easiest car part to replace. With this in mind, remember that you get what you pay for, and it pays to do research. There are many different blades on the market. Some are suited for icy conditions and some are designed for sunny weather. Take your time to read product descriptions to ensure you install blades that are right for your vehicle.
When was the last time you replaced your windshield wiper blades? If you’re like most people, you may not remember. As a general rule of thumb, you should replace your wiper blades about once a year, assuming they’ve been through a normal level of wear and tear. However, with a few easy steps, you can make your blades last longer without compromising visibility. • Keep your windshield and wipers clean of debris, dirt, dust, and other particles. Anything on the window or the blades can cause damage. Simply wiping them off with a microfiber cloth can go a long way.

“Moving around a lot makes it really hard to find a good dentist. I felt right at home the minute I walked into my appointment. The very friendly receptionist introduced herself, and then I was shocked when the lady who helped me schedule my appointment over the phone came out to say hello. The office is extremely clean and well put together. There was not an unfriendly staff member in the office. “Dr. Janice was the one that came to get me for my appointment. I was given a tour of the office then brought to the exam room. Usually by this time, I’m freaked out by the dental chair, but since I was treated so nice and felt welcome, the chair did not faze me. Unlike most dentists, Dr. Janice was so caring and focused on what was best for me. I was shown my X-rays in great detail and given my options. One thing that I loved was that I did not leave or do anything before I was told how much the services were. The staff member that went over my treatment plan with me was very insurance-oriented and knew exactly what my insurance covered and did not cover. I was able to get my exam, cleaning, a couple fillings, and impressions to look into Invisalign, all in my first visit! “I have never been to an office where everyone I encountered knew what they were doing. The dental assistant, Kim, made taking impressions a breeze! And for any of you that have done impressions before, you know it’s not a fun thing to do. “I highly recommend this office to anyone and will be bringing my whole family here.” –Tiffany S.
