Clean your window coverings the smart way 

Nowadays, smart products are everywhere we look; your phone, your car, your lights, your entire interior... and even your window coverings. Motorized systems like those used for blinds are convenient as you no longer have to get up to use the pull cords. Unfortunately, however, cleaning is not automated, but it can still be done smartly! 

If you are happy with your smart window coverings, you want to take good care of them, too. Maintenance and cleaning are essential for this – after all, you want to make your blinds last as long as possible while keeping them looking like new. Cleaning your window coverings is a great way to reduce the risk of your blinds or roller blinds fading or being damaged. Simply follow the tips below! 

How to maintain motorized roller blinds and other window decoration 

It is easy to remove all types of dirt from standard window coverings. But when it comes to automated window coverings, owners' experience is often a little different despite our specialists pointing out that the cleaning process is almost identical for both types of coverings. Follow the tips below to make cleaning your smart blinds and roller blinds easier: 

• Vacuuming – One of the best ways to remove dirt and dust from window coverings is to dust or vacuum regularly. When dusting, simply wipe with a cloth. If you are vacuuming, use a vacuum cleaner with a soft brush. Make sure you use the soft brush head to avoid damaging the fabric. This cleaning method can be applied to almost all smart window coverings.
• Lambswool – Go one step further in your cleaning process with a lambswool dust cloth. Slide it horizontally along each slat, starting from the top - otherwise dust will fall from the higher slats to lower ones you have already cleaned.
• Rubber sponge – A sponge is used to remove dirt and grime from the blinds. This process does not need water, so you don't have to worry about damaging the motorized parts of your smart window coverings.
• No spraying or soaking – Do not spray cleaning solution directly onto the window coverings, as this may damage both the blinds and motorized parts. Instead, use a damp cloth and carefully wipe the blinds clean.

Additional tips for cleaning motorized window coverings 

• Avoid chemicals: Do not use harsh chemical liquids to clean window coverings. Doing so may damage the fabric.
• Household cures: Vinegar is the best way to keep motorized window coverings looking sparkling clean. Use a bowl of water and add vinegar in a 1:1 ratio. Use a microfiber cloth and clean carefully. Do not apply excessive pressure to the slats. 
• What should you do with wooden blinds? Wooden blinds are very soft, which means care must be taken when cleaning them. Use the wood cleaning techniques and products recommended by the manufacturer.
• Clean the window frame: Make sure you clean the window frame and glass to keep the area free of dirt and dust.

By following these tips, you can express your personality and show how you live. Cleaning window coverings is essential to prevent long-term damage, and doing so will keep your window coverings in good condition. All you need to do is follow the tips in this article to help save you both time and effort. 

If your window covering is still dirty and these tips are no longer useful, consult professional cleaners first to avoid making a wrong decision.
