FAQs
Do these curtains block 100% of all light?
Yes, the triple-woven fabric is specifically designed to achieve complete light blockage for optimal sleep environments.
Can these be washed in a standard washing machine?
Yes, they are machine washable on a gentle cycle. Always use cold water and avoid bleach to protect the fabric finish.
How many panels are included in the package?
Each purchase includes two panels to ensure full coverage and a pleated, high-quality look for your window.
Do these curtains help with noise reduction?
While primarily designed for light and thermal control, the heavy triple-woven construction offers modest sound-dampening properties compared to thin, single-layer curtains.
Will these help lower my electricity bill?
By providing an insulating barrier against heat, these curtains help maintain room temperature, reducing the load on your cooling systems during warmer months.
Troubleshooting
Visible light leaking around the edges of the curtains
Ensure the curtain rod is mounted wide enough to extend past the window frame and consider using wrap-around rods to pull the fabric closer to the wall.
Wrinkles remaining after unpacking
Use a low-heat garment steamer on the fabric or hang the panels for a few days; do not use high-heat irons which may damage the blackout layer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Abstractex curtains is straightforward, though given the density of the fabric, ensure your existing curtain hardware is securely anchored into studs. For the best aesthetic, allow the curtains to hang for 24-48 hours to release any folding wrinkles from the shipping process; a light pass with a handheld steamer can expedite this.
For care, the curtains are machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water to preserve the fabric's integrity and the blackout coating. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric texture.
