How to wash Duvet?

Posted: 2023-06-19 00:00

The padding in the Duvet is down, which is very warm and light, and has no sense of heaviness and restraint when it is covered, so it is very popular. However, cleaning down blankets is difficult and meticulous. If machine washed casually, it can easily affect the warmth retention effect of down blankets and shorten their service life. Then how should I wash the Duvet? This article brings you the cleaning and maintenance methods of the Duvet. Let's get to know it.

1. Remove stains before soaking

When many people wash the Duvet, they soak the Duvet in water for a long time or wash it in the washing machine for a long time. It is wrong to think that this can wash away the stains. The correct method should be to first wash the locally dirty areas by hand, and then put them into the washing machine to wash them thoroughly.

2. Washing time should not be long

The Duvet can't be stirred in the washing machine for a long time, mainly because the Duvet fabric has been treated with anti down treatment, that is, the anti down agent is filled into the gap of the fabric to prevent drilling. If the washing time is too long or the cleaning frequency is too frequent, it may cause the quilt to drill down, so it is best to clean it every 2 years.

3. Rinse and add vinegar to remove water stains

Duvet should be cleaned with neutral detergent to avoid damaging Duvet. Some people found that there were many water stains on the Duvet after cleaning it and drying it; The reason for this is that the detergent in the quilt has not been completely rinsed, so it needs to be neutralized and removed by adding some white vinegar during rinsing.

4. Quickly air dry to prevent mites

Due to the low temperature in winter, it is difficult to dry the Duvet after cleaning. Because the down itself is not very hygroscopic, the drying process can easily create the illusion that it has already dried. If used recklessly at this time, the cover on the body will breed mites due to temperature rise. It is best to adopt drying treatment.

5. Don't dry clean it, it will damage the velvet

Some people like to take the Duvet to dry clean, thinking it is convenient and can be cleaned at the same time. In fact, the Duvet cannot be dry cleaned, because the dry cleaning agent is a toxic chemical, which will first destroy the oil layer on the down, making the down easy to break, affecting the warmth retention effect, and also hurting the body.
