Problem:

Nothing spoils your view like dirty grungy window blinds. Years of accumulated dust, dirt, smoke, oxidation, pollen and bacteria take their toll and can cause health problems.

Solution:

We use the latest Ultrasonic Technology to gently and thoroughly clean your blinds. Our unique process removes dirt, dust, smoke film, pollen and bacteria with thousands of sound waves per second. The cords, ladders and slats come out sparkling clean. Even the head rail is lubricated during the process. A silicon type coating helps repel dust. The blind is immersed in a tank of biodegradable cleaning solution with ultra high frequency sound waves which penetrate all surfaces.

How Ultrasonic Technology Works:

Ultrasound is created by generators which produce high frequency electricity. This high frequency electricity is then converted to mechanical energy or sound waves through a transducer, which literally makes these waves vibrate. As these vibrating sound waves travel through water, microscopic bubbles form and repeatedly implode upon a given surface.

This powerful action removes visible and even microscopic dirt particles making your blinds cleaner than alternative methods. Not only is this Ultrasonic cleaning method completely user-friendly and extremely effective, but it is fast, safe, and gentle.

 

Recommended Cleaning Methods

  • Dusting: Regular dusting maintains a like new appearance of most blinds, shades and sheers.
  • Vacuuming: For deeper cleaning, vacuum gently with brush attachment of any vacuum cleaner.
  • Compressed Air or Hair Dryer (non-heat setting): Blow dust off selected window coverings.
  • Spot Cleaning: Spot clean shades and blinds with soft cloth or sponge moistened with lukewarm water. Add mild detergent if needed. Blot gently to avoid creasing. Honeycomb shades should be dried in fully lowered position.
  • Stain-Finished wooden blinds: Water may damage surface, so use lemon oil or wood preservative to clean.
  • Aluminum horizontal blinds: Use over-the-counter blind cleaner with a soft cloth.
  • Vinyl and aluminum vertical blinds: Reduce build-up of static electricity by applying a very thin film of detergent on all slats and vanes.
  • Ultrasonic cleaning: Professional ultrasonic cleaning is recommended for several products. Do not use this method for Beyond Woods or Country Woods blinds, Easy Glide, UltraGlide, Luminette Privacy Sheers, Silhouette Bon Soir or metallized-backed shades.
  • Bathtub Cleaning (only for the brave): 1) Immerse entire shade assembly in lukewarm water with mild detergent. Wash for 5 minutes by gently moving liquid around with your fingers. 2) Rinse with clear water. 3) Close shade before removing from rinse water. 4) Hold rails and tilt the shade to allow excess water to drain off. 5) Re-install damp shade into window opening. 6) Lower shade all the way to allow it to dry completely.
  • Avoid dry cleaning: Most soft alternative window treatments do not require frequent cleaning. A light dusting with a vacuum cleaner brush attachment on a regular basis will keep them looking new for years.
  • Cleaning Luminette Privacy Sheers: Professional in-home drapery cleaning services that use portable injection/extraction machines give the best results for deep cleaning Luminette Privacy Sheers. This type of machine injects a heated cleaning solution into the fabric and extracts the dirty solution in the same motion. Sheers should remain hanging during cleaning.


Wood blinds | Aluminum Blinds | Faux Wood

Like any piece of furniture, dust your blinds regularly. Use an ordinary soft, clean cloth, chemically treated dust cloth, dusting mitt, vacuum cleaner with brush attachment or cylindrical dust brushes especially designed for blinds. The paint surface of the slats is smooth and dust is easily brushed off, when dusted during regular cleaning. Lower the blind to its full length, then tilt the slats almost fully closed and dust. Then do the reverse side of the slats in the same manner. In order to reach the dust where the slats overlap, it is best not to fully close the blind in either position.

Cellular blinds

Most of the cellular shades, like the Hunter Douglas Duette shade, are anti-static, and they require very little cleaning. A light sweep with your vacuum cleaner brush attachment is all that is needed to keep them dust free. For a more thorough cleaning, the entire shade assembly may be gently wiped with a soft damp cloth using lukewarm (not hot) water. Take special care when handling opaque (blackout) shades to avoid creasing, and do not immerse them in water. For tough stains, spot clean with a mild detergent. Be very careful when trying to clean soft shade types of shades as they tend to "pill".

Vertical Blinds


Vinyl vertical blinds should be dusted on a regular basis as aluminum. Vinyl type usually (use caution!) can be "soft scrubbed" with a mild detergent to remove difficult stains. Fabric verticals unless expressed can not be washed. A regular vacuuming is all that is necessary, with a stubborn spot you may damp wipe the fabric. Fabric inserted verticals follow the same instructions for care for fabric, the backs however can be vinyl "scrubbed".
