LCD screens are often thought of as being fairly low maintenance, but you should still take some steps to care for them. If you have a lot of LCDs in your home, this will be very easy for you; after all, how many times do you look at the same thing? However, if you only have one or two, it can get a little more challenging. Keeping an eye on everything can be time consuming and tedious, but it’s essential if you want to extend the life of your screens. To keep your LCD screens young and healthy:
Check your settings regularly
Be sure to check the settings on your screens regularly. The settings that you choose have a big impact on how well your screens will last. Be sure to change the settings if you notice a difference in the lifespan of your screens or if you are noticing a lot of dust. Depending on the model you have, you may need to change the settings to make sure your screens are being taken care of properly. For example, many models have a “Low Blue Light” setting. The low blue light setting will make your screens less harmful to your eyes, as blue light is linked to sleep issues. If you notice that you are consistently getting less sleep, it could be that the blue light is interfering with your rest. Switching to the low blue light setting could make a big difference in how restful your nights are.
Keep dust off the screen
If you’re going to be looking at your screens frequently, you might as well keep them dust free. This is especially important if you have a lot of screens. If you have a few small LCDs, you can likely get away with dusting them, but if you have a lot, you’ll need to dust them more frequently. The best way to keep dust off LCD screens is to simply dust your screens whenever you notice they need it. Try to dust while they are off too, as dusting while an LCD is on will cause damage. If you are dusting your screens with the intention of dusting the rest of your house, simply use a dust rag. If dusting your screens isn’t really something that you feel like doing, you can use a screen protector. Screen protectors are designed to keep the dust off the screen, yet still allow you to use your screens normally.
Be careful with sunlight
Sunlight should be a big part of your daily life. Getting outside and spending time in the sunlight is essential to helping your body make vitamin D. However, too much sun can be harmful to your screens, so be careful with it. Make sure to only get outside for a few minutes, then get back into the shade. Don’t spend hours in the sun either. You want to stay in the “golden” range, which means that you should be tan, but not burnt. If you don’t have enough sunlight in your life, you can purchase a screen protector. Screen protectors are designed to block out light and protect your screens from harmful sunlight.
Turn off the power periodically
It’s important to turn off your screens when you aren’t using them. This will help to keep dust off your screens and extend the life of your screens. If you are going to be away from home for a while, such as on vacation, turn off your screens. This will keep dust off your screens and extend the life of your screens. If you aren’t going to be away for long, simply unplug your screens when you aren’t using them. Unplugging your screens can be especially important when you are on the go. If you are going to be away from home for a while, you might want to unplug your screens so that dust doesn’t get on them. This will keep them dust free and extend the life of your screens.
Don’t be afraid to clean
If you find yourself constantly cleaning your screens, you might want to take a look at yourself. The screens in your home are meant to be cleaned from time to time, especially if you are going to be looking at them a lot. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean your screens. If you aren’t comfortable cleaning your screens, you can always use screen protectors. Most screen protectors are designed to be removed and washed. This can help to keep your screens dust free and extend the life of your screens. If you aren’t comfortable cleaning your screens, you can always use a screen protector.
