Have you ever wondered when the last time you cleaned your curtains and net curtains? If so, don’t worry, you’re not alone. Cleaning curtains is not part of most people’s cleaning routine. It’s so easy to forget that curtains and net curtains, like any other part of your home, need a cleaning. However, this is often seen as a difficult task because it is a tiring and time-consuming process. But the good news is that it doesn’t have to be that complicated. It can simply become part of your cleaning routine! Let’s find out the best way to clean your curtains.
How often is it necessary to clean your curtains?
Unfortunately, there is no clear answer to this question, as the answer depends on a number of factors.
Firstly, if allergies run in your family, it may be helpful to wash your curtains regularly. This prevents an accumulation of dust and bacteria. Cleaning curtains also ensures that bad odors disappear and that the curtains smell fresh again. Secondly, if you have children or pets, you may need to clean the curtains more often.
However, it is generally recommended to clean curtains at least once every two years!
What is the best way to clean curtains and net curtains?
Technically you can wash curtains and net curtains at home, but this comes with certain risks. This is one of the reasons why we advise against this. For most curtains, when they come into contact with water, the chance of them shrinking increases significantly. This leads to curtains that were in good condition being ruined after being washed at home. Moreover, curtains in the washing machine can not only shrink but also wrinkle, because your washing machine is probably too small. In addition, there are also curtains that you cannot clean yourself at home. These are for example: linen curtains, curtains with solar eclipse, velor curtains, silk curtains.
To prevent damage, we recommend steam-cleaning your curtains and net curtains at a professional textile cleaner such as www.gordijnenstomen.nl or an experienced curtain cleaner such as www.stomerijsupernette.nl and www.curtaincleaning.nl.
Unfortunately, relaxation shrinkage cannot be ruled out, but it can be minimized as much as possible by having your curtains professionally dry cleaned. At curtainsteam.nl, a special solution is used (instead of water) that maintains the condition of your curtains and at the same time removes dirt, dust, bacteria and stains. This way we can ensure that your curtains are cleaned professionally and environmentally friendly. Curtains and net curtains are items that can last a long time, so proper maintenance is crucial.
