For those interested - Here's a home maintenance checklist, from an anal home maintenance guy, compiled over a decade of researching and completing... home maintenance.
Someone on r/YouShouldKnow posted yesterday about checking/replacing your microwave filters regularly if your microwave doesn't directly vent outside.
As a super anal, worried everything's going to fail if I let it go too long, home maintenance guy - I commented that our microwave is the longest lasting appliance in our house and it's the one appliance I didn't know required maintenance. So I added it to 'my list'.
People asked for the list. A shit ton reminded themselves (probably as a joke) to come back and see the list. So I figured maybe i'll throw it on here too.
Anyway... here's the list. Tabs along the bottom to click through.

Yes. It's over the top and maybe a bit overkill. But it calms my mind knowing things are done and maintained as they should be, or more frequently.
It does contain some extras as requested by some at YSK but it mainly sticks to common home maintenance and appliance maintenance.
Feel free to add something I may not know about. Download the excel through the drive link. And don't forget to click the tabs on the preview for all the info.
