May Home Maintenance Tip

With Memorial Day around the corner and summer gatherings on the horizon, May is the ideal time to get your outdoor grill ready in Hawaii. A clean and well-functioning grill ensures safer cooking and better-tasting food.

1. Deep Clean Grates and Burners

Remove and scrub grill grates with a wire brush and soapy water. Clean burners and interior surfaces to get rid of grease buildup and old residue.

2. Check for Gas Leaks or Rust

Inspect propane connections or gas lines for leaks by applying soapy water—bubbles mean trouble. Look for rust or corrosion and replace damaged parts.

3. Restock Grill Essentials

Make sure you have enough propane or charcoal, and restock cleaning brushes, utensils, and grill-safe cooking spray before your next BBQ.

Prepping your grill now means more time for stress-free outdoor fun as summer kicks off in Hawaii.
