Maintenance

The below is general maintenance only. See Technical Specifications for fabric specific care instructions.

Vacuum and shake off dirt: There are two ways to remove dust from window furnishings – for heavy fabrics such as wool, you can vacuum the dust off the window furnishing. For more delicate fabrics such as sheer, velvet and polyester, shake them well, so the dust can fall and settle around the room, then vacuum the surroundings and wipe the dirty furniture.

Brush away lint: Certain fabrics can collect lint and pet hair. Use a vacuum, lint roller or brush to remove lint and pet hair.

Clean the window: Clean your windows regularly to protect your window furnishings from the transfer of dirt and dust from the window. Avoid spraying cleaning products on the windows directly, because these cleaning products may collect dust on the window furnishings. Instead, spray your cleaning products onto a cloth and then apply the cloth directly to the window.

Air out: It’s important to let your window furnishings breathe. Exposing them to fresh air will prevent mould growth and smell.

Note that if you maintain your window furnishings, and there are no accidents, you will not need to dry clean your window furnishings.
