How does one
take care of a laptop? Well, there are many ways to care of a laptop,
especially the one you own that probably cost more than a thousand bucks! So
it’s worth protecting because you want it to last as long as you can.
If you’re
clueless about the basics of your laptop, consult this list. You’ll certainly
find some useful information here.
Prolonging Laptop Lifespan
There are
several things you can do to increase the lifespan of your laptop:
1. When left in
cold places, allow your laptop to become accustomed to room temperature first
before turning it on. This prevents any condensation, subsequently avoiding
short circuits.
2. To prevent
any dust from accumulating in the vents, always place your laptop on top of a
clean, flat surface.
3. By preventing
dust from entering, you’re also preventing heat buildup. To assist in
preventing heat buildup, always make sure you have proper ventilation – again,
place your laptop on top of a clean, flat surface.
4. While on the
subject of heat, never leave your laptop in direct sunlight. This prevents any
damage to the internal components. They are very costly to repair.
5. When
transporting your laptop, always put it inside a heavily padded bag to prevent
any accidents.
Cleaning Tips
To prolong
the laptop’s life even more, cleaning must be an essential part of your
routine. It’s important to follow these tips:
Keyboard
The keyboard
is something we come into contact with every day. It’s important to clean them
from time to time, preferably once every few weeks, or once a month.
Keyboards
become hosts for germs, crumbs and dust. To clean them, use compressed air,
because you can get into those hard to reach places easily.
Protecting
the keyboard is important if you want to preserve the laptop’s aesthetic
quality. To improve your chances, you can get a keyboard cover, or use a full
keyboard when you’re at home.
Screen
No doubt your
LCD panel will accumulate stain spots and dusty corners as time goes by. To
clean this, just apply some alcohol to a cotton ball to clean the edges. The
quick evaporation of alcohol prevents any liquid from seeping into the cracks.
You can also
use a warm, lightly damped cloth. You’ll be able to remove any stains with
ease. Also, remember to not use excessive pressure, or else you’ll risk
puncturing the screen.
Body
To clean the
rest of the body, all you need is a soft piece of cloth to wipe away dust. This
will also prevent any scratches. If there are any stains, just apply some
alcohol and it will quickly go away.
Conclusion
The
aforementioned tips here are plenty, and it’ll definitely help keep your laptop
in top condition.
If you don’t
have the time to clean your laptop regularly, try to prevent direct sunlight
and dust. These two are the worst killers of laptops. You don’t want dust and
heat damaging the internal components.

Clean the LCD screen with a soft dry cloth. If the screen is really dirty, use distilled water, applying limited amounts to the cloth, never spray water or any liquid directly onto a computer screen or use a laptop screen cleaning kit.
