However, this isn\u2019t the case because shower curtains can be washed and re-used. This saves you money in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A general rule of thumb is to wash your shower curtains every month. It\u2019s important to consistently wash them monthly because they do generate bacteria and it also means you are getting rid of the mould that damages the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/what-fabrics-should-be-dry-cleaned\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">fabric<\/a> over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Wash Your Shower Curtains Using The Washing Machine?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good thing about washing your shower curtains is that it doesn\u2019t take much time but it does require a little more care than a normal laundry chore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Firstly, take down the shower curtain and remove any rings. Then place the curtain in the washing machine. It is recommended to put a few <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/how-to-keep-towels-soft\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">white towels<\/a> into the load for better cleaning results as this will provide extra scrubbing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moreover, add the normal amount of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/a-comprehensive-guide-to-laundry-detergent\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">laundry detergent<\/a> and a \u00bd cup of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/how-to-remove-stains-with-baking-soda\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">baking soda<\/a>. Once that is done, put the machine in a gentle and warm setting if you have a plastic curtain and run the cycle for 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a fabric shower curtain, set it with the highest cycle of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/washing-at-the-right-temperature\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">40 to 60 degrees<\/a> but as always, read the label for care instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When your washing machine starts to reach the rinse cycle, at a \u00bd to 1 cup of white vinegar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lastly, when the cycle finishes, hang your shower curtain up to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Wash Your Shower Curtains By Hand?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes your shower curtains don\u2019t need washing machine attention and the good news is that handwashing is also effective in washing your shower curtains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To begin handwashing, remove the shower curtain for better handling. Make sure the curtain is a little wet and then pour some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/how-to-remove-stains-with-baking-soda\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">baking soda<\/a> on it to scrub any mould, dirt, water, or soap stains. We recommend using a brush or a cloth to rub the baking soda into the shower curtain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Afterwards, turn on your tap to warm water settings and begin to rinse to remove any remaining stains. If you feel happy with the results, hang it up to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everybody wants their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laundryheap.com/blog\/5-ways-to-create-a-luxury-bathroom-on-a-budget\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bathroom<\/a> to look spotless. Make sure you add your shower curtains to <a href=\"https:\/\/app.laundryheap.com\/prices?country=GB&amp;language=en&amp;_gl=1%2agg3egt%2a_gcl_aw%2aR0NMLjE2NTE4Nzk1MzkuQ2p3S0NBandqdE9UQmhBdkVpd0FTRzRiQ0NzQlFwUEgweE43LVFVdTJiUlhCQWNYWEszR1NHZmRWcmxiX3VGbExTWkhEcUhFQUNJY2xCb0M5dG9RQXZEX0J3RQ..&amp;_ga=2.229525020.1824259408.1652368985-123268113.1649233526&amp;_gac=1.120276730.1650879148.CjwKCAjwjZmTBhB4EiwAynRmDwyXYXw19l4yl8PljFUlsOWI9U_qWWXqFpRRBuC0s99bLW9iAozwBxoC0doQAvD_BwE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">laundry<\/a> and cleaning duties.
