Washing curtains requires a gentle approach to preserve their quality and appearance.
At What Temperature Should You Wash Curtains?
Curtains should be washed at lower temperatures, ideally between 30 and 40 degrees Celsius. Higher temperatures can damage delicate fabrics and cause them to shrink or fade.
What Program Should You Use to Wash Curtains?
For curtains, use a gentle or hand wash program on your washing machine. This program ensures a gentle wash and minimizes the risk of damaging the fabric. If your washing machine has a program specifically designed for washing curtains, be sure to use it.
Tips for Washing Curtains:
- Before washing, gently shake out the curtains to remove dust and dirt.
- Use a detergent designed for delicate fabrics.
- Avoid bleaching and harsh chemicals that can damage the curtains.
- After washing, hang the curtains immediately to prevent creases and ensure even drying.
- You can also use a laundry bag when washing curtains for added protection against damage.
