PRODUCT CARE & MAINTENANCE
Our Harmonia Living furniture is designed to live long past the manufacturer warranty. It’s also
constructed with materials that don’t require a lot of upkeep. By following the recommendations below, you’ll enjoy your new patio furniture for years to
come!
HOW TO CLEAN & PROTECT INDOOR FURNITURE:
Use a coaster or trivet when placing heavy items, or glassware on the surface top to prevent scratching. Dust regularly with a soft cloth occasionally polish with a lemon oil based product like Old English, please do not use harsh chemicals.
PROTECT YOUR NEW OUTDOOR FURNITURE
When not in use, we recommend using a protective cover with your furniture. During harsh weather and extreme temperatures, we recommend storing the cushions in a shed or garage and covering the frames with protective covers. If you store the frames indoors during the winter, avoid storing upside down, which can trap moisture. Damage caused by the elements, normal wear and tear or improper care is not covered by Harmonia Living's warranty.
HOW TO CLEAN OUTDOOR FURNITURE:
ALUMINUM
Simply hose off or wipe down your frame to clean it. Avoid using harsh cleaners, brushes or power washers, which could damage the finish.
TEAK
Long term, teak furniture develops a pleasing silvery gray patina, which is cosmetic and not an indication of dryness. Its natural oils help keep this hardwood strong and durable in a variety of environments, so there’s very little maintenance needed. Covering teak furniture will protect the surface from elements such as hail, wind and snow, which can cause cosmetic damage. To keep the original golden honey finish, apply a very thin layer of Linseed or Teak oil to your furniture 1-2 times a year, depending on exposure. Cleaning your furniture with teak cleaner is recommended every 2-3 years, along with the oil application.
HDPE WICKER
Simply hose off, or wipe down the wicker with a solution of mild dish soap (just a drop or two) and water with a soft cloth. Do not use harsh chemicals
or brushes to clean HDPE wicker.
SLING
In order to prevent stains and protect its new appearance, wipe down the sling with a mixture of soap and water every few weeks. To remove mold, rinse down the furniture with water and scrub gently with a brush.
GFRC / CONCRETE
Wipe up spills immediately with a dry cloth. For overall cleaning, use a soft cloth with a drop of mild dish soap. Rinse off soap and wipe dry.
STEEL
Simply hose off or wipe down your frame to clean it. Avoid using harsh cleaners, brushes or power washers, which could damage the finish. Should the product get scratched or damaged, the metal will begin to rust. You can use Rustoleum spray paint to touch up scratches and prevent rust from spreading.
PERFORMANCE FABRICS
Cleaning your cushions on a regular basis will help prevent build-up of dirt, which can generate mildew. Dirt and dust can be brushed off, while stains can be spot cleaned with mild soap and water. Cushion covers zip off and can be machine washed and air dried; do not put cushion covers in the dryer. For
tougher stains, visit the fabric manufacturer’s website for additional recommendations.
Tip: If your cushions are left out during a rainstorm, unzip and place the cushion on its side, zipper side down. This will allow the water to drain out quicker.
