DUETTE® & APPLAUSE™ HONEYCOMB SHADES
SILHOUETTE & VIGNETTE WINDOW SHADINGS
PLEATED & WINDOW SHADES
Regular light dusting with a feather duster will suffice in most circumstances. For more thorough dust removal, the fabric may be vacuumed. A hand-held vacuum with low suction is recommended. Alternatively, dirt and debris can be blown away using compressed air or a hand-held hair dryer on the COOL setting. Whatever method is used, care must be taken to avoid wrinkling the fabric.

Sponge or Spot Cleaning
When needed, Duette® and Applause™ fabrics (only) can be cleaned by gently blotting with a soft, damp cloth or sponge, using lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Be careful not to apply too much pressure to the fabric. Take special care when cleaning opaque or "blackout" fabrics to avoid creasing and pilling.
Do not sponge or spot clean Duette® Manhattan, Gramercy Park, Park Avenue, or Park Avenue Eclipse fabrics.

Bathtub Cleaning
To clean the entire Duette® or Applause™ shade, immerse the assembly in lukewarm water with a mild detergent and move it around lightly with your fingers. Wash for about five minute then rinse with clean water. Close the shade before removing it from the rinse water. Tilt the shade to allow excess water to escape. Re-install the damp shade back into the window opening and lower the shade all the way to allow it to dry completely.

Do not immerse Silhouette, Vignette, Duette® Manhattan, Duette® PowerRise, Pleated Shades, or Window Shades.
Do not immerse Skyrise, EasyRise, Easy Glide, Vertiglide, Smart Shade, or opaque fabrics.

Ultrasonic Cleaning
Shades can be ultrasonically cleaned by a professional. If using this service, a mild detergent solution must be specified. The head rail cannot be immersed in the solution and the shades/shadings must be allowed to dry in the completely lowered position.

Do not ultrasonically clean Window Shades, Silhouette Bon Soir, opaque fabrics, metallized, backed shades, or the Pleated Shades fabric Adrianna.
Do not ultrasonically clean EasyRise, Easy Glide, Skyrise, PowerRise, Smart Shade, Vertiglide, arches and angles.

LUMINETTE™ PRVACY SHEERS™
Luminette™ Privacy Sheers™ are extremely durable and, with proper installation and care, will provide many years of beauty and performance. The sheer fabric and vane fabric are 100% polyester. Although the fabrics are resilient, anti-static and dust resistant, periodic cleaning is recommended to help keep Luminette™ Privacy Sheers™ looking like new.

Routine Cleaning
Regular light dusting with a feather duster is suggested. A hand-held vacuum with low suction may also be used. When vacuuming, avoid pulling or stretching the sheer fabric. Rigorous vacuuming or using a brush attachment is not recommended, since either could distort the fabric.

Light Surface Cleaning
Professional dry cleaning using the vacuum method is suitable for light surface cleaning. Sheers should remain hanging to minimize handling, wrinkling or puckering. The plastic vacuum component from a steam cleaning machine, set at 65-80 pounds of pressure and a maximum of 102 degrees Farenheit, is recommended.

Deep Cleaning
Sheers should remain hanging to minimize handling, wrinkling or puckering. For a deep cleaning, professional steam cleaning with a portable steam machine is best. Using a drapery head, apply the same pressure and temperature as described above. After deep cleaning, remove wrinkles from the fabric according to the following instructions.

Wrinkle and Crease Removal
Apply warm distilled or bottled water to a clean white cloth. Support the fabric from behind using another clean cloth that is dry. Use a gentle, blotting action to apply the wet cloth to the wrinkle or crease on the sheer fabric. Let area air dry.

Spot Cleaning
To reduce the potential for permanent staining, spots should be treated and cleaned as soon as possible with a clothing stain pre-treatment solution. Apply pre-treatment solution to a clean white cloth. Support the fabric from behind using another clean cloth that is dry. Clean the spot using a gentle blotting action. Avoid rubbing the fabric since any abrasive action may cause it to distort. Let area air dry.

CUSTOM HORIZONTAL ALUMINUM BLINDS

COUNTRY WOODS™ WOOD BLINDS
Regular cleaning with a feather duster or a soft, clean cloth is usually all that is needed to keep blinds looking new. Blinds may also be cleaned by a hand-held vacuum with a brush attachment using low suction.
Stained Wood Blinds should be treated periodically with lemon oil or other wood preservative to protect their finish. DO NOT damp clean stained blinds; the water could damage their surface appearance.
Ultrasonic cleaning is NOT recommended for wood blinds.

VERTICAL BLINDS
Fabric vertical blinds require only periodic dusting or vacuuming to keep them looking new. Do not wash or dry clean fabric blinds. Do not use ammonia cleaners on or near fabric.
Vinyl & aluminum blinds can be wiped clean with a damp cloth or sponge. Leaving a very thin film of detergent on each vertical vane will reduce buildup of static electricity.
