How to clean the hot water baseboard (not the heater); So mush dust and trash inside the baseboard all over the house.

Thanx in advance...

Hi, Welcome...you can easily lift of the baseboard covers (they are removable) and vacuum carefully all around the heating fins. I always use the brush attachment nozzle from my vac. You can also take your dust pan brush or a paint brush and pull all the dirt away then pick it up. Keeping the fins clean will make an improvement. Pet hair also has a way of always finding its way to those fins. Hope this helps.

Be sure and clean the bottom of all the fins that is where the lint builds up and like just shuts the air off from moving
there and getting warm.Try and not bend any .

I found a can of compressed air (like used to clean computer keyboards) effective at blowing out down between the fins.
