How Do I Clean Levolor Cloth Blinds?

Levolor manufactures a wide variety of window coverings including blinds, draperies, and shades. Levolor's fabric blinds are vertical shades that offer customizable colors, fabrics, and translucency options. Basic cleaning is required to prevent dust, smoke, or condensation buildup, and maintain the appearance of your cloth blinds. Levolor recommends dusting with a vacuum, and spot cleaning with water or a mild cleaning solution. Deep cleaning should be performed by a professional.

Things You'll Need

• Vacuum with upholstery attachment
• Cloth
• Mild laundry detergent

Instructions

1. Vacuum the cloth blinds from top to bottom with an upholstery or brush attachment. This removes loose dust and debris. Rotate the blinds using the tilt chain, and vacuum the other side.

2. Dampen a cloth with warm water, and wring it out. Wipe and blot out any stains with the cloth.

3. Remove tough stains with 1/2 tsp. mild laundry detergent on a damp cloth. Use more or less depending on the size of the stain. Blot the stain gently with the cloth.

4. Rinse the cloth and wring it out. Blot the stain to remove any soap residue. Allow the blinds to air-dry.
