How to Clean Fabric Blinds


Hanging blinds require some special care. If you want to keep them looking good, you should know how to clean them properly. If you have fabric blinds, there are some things you'd better be familiar with. This article will provide you with all you need to know to make your fabric blinds as clean as possible.


Keep in mind that regular cleaning of your blinds is the key to maintain them well. Get used to clean them at least once a week. The faster you get that habit, the better.

Regular cleaning can be easily done with a feather duster or a vacuum cleaner. But if you intend to use a vacuum cleaner, you should have the appropriate attachment. Don't forget to clean the blinds from both sides.

When you need to do some major cleaning, you need to take down the fabric blinds. Some types of fabric blinds can be washed in a washing machine, others can't. If you do that, you should use a mild detergent. You should also read manufacturer's manual to get some recommendations for the cleaning process.

When you are done with washing them, hand them up outside to dry. Drying them in the dryer is not a good idea, because some damage can be caused.

Cleaning fabric blinds is an easy task, especially if you follow the above tips. But if you need some major cleaning for your home, you should call a professional cleaning company.
