Types of Pleated Fabric Shades to Choose From

How to Clean Pleated Shades
You can extend the lifespan of your pleated shades and maintain their beauty and appeal by cleaning them regularly. Pleated shades are very low-maintenance and easy to clean:
- Dust your shades every week with a feather duster or microfiber cloth. The pleats in the shades can attract and hide dirt and dust, and it’s better to clean them regularly.
- You can use the soft brush attachment on your vacuum cleaner to vacuum your shades carefully on the lowest setting.
- Depending on your window shade fabric, you can spot clean any small stains or spots. You should always follow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions. You can generally clean fabric pleated shades with a gentle detergent, warm water, and a microfiber cloth or sponge. Do not use a sponge or cloth that is sopping wet; wring the sponge or cloth out until it is only slightly damp.
- Never put your pleated shades in the washing machine or dryer.
- If you need to do major cleaning, remove them from the windows and soak them in a bathtub full of lukewarm water and mild soap. Do not put the headrail in the water. After soaking, remove them from the water and towel dry the shades. Hang them up outside to dry. They must dry completely to avoid mold or mildew growth.
