Anyone else use Johnson baby shampoo?

[KsUp]

I use this and I use the remstar auto a flex machine and for some reason my water chamber, mask, etc always seems to have this slimy soapy feel inside of it even after I wash it with my hands and rinse it a ton

Why is this, is it the shampoo ? And should I just ignore it ? Cuz other parts have this issue too

[BlackSpinner]

Rinse the humidifier with water and vinegar.
Shampoo will always leave a slimy residue - it is designed to do that.
Much better is simple dish detergent like Dawn or Bonners Soap.

Any brand of dishwashing liquid is ok? Or ivory dishwashing liquid?

[knightlite]

Dawn is best to remove oils and grease. That's why they use it on wildlife exposed to oil spills . A final soak in baking soda rinse helps bond with remaining oil on masks and such and makes it very fresh . I always rinse that off with very warm water.

i use Ivory Original. Comes in a bar or liquid.

Recently I have started to use this for my own body and also for my mask, dehumidifier chamber, etc.




At the gym I use this:

I used to use Dawn Direct Foam and loved it. Concerns over Dawn being too harsh for the silicone made me switch to Johnson's Baby Shampoo. I found a lavender scented baby shampoo and have been using it ever since. I haven't had any issues with residue, but I do a thorough rinsing after using it.

Hey...Here's my idea.....Use distilled water and never clean your humidifier.

[beautifuldreamer]

I use Palmolive "Clear and Pure" dish wash liquid soap- it is hypoallergenic, phosphate free, biodegradable cleansing agents, no chemicals, etc . . .

I use Dawn for cleaning and vinegar and water in the chamber for disinfecting once a week.

I use distilled water only but still clean my humidifier weekly. I'm not a chemist but heating distilled water over and over must provide at least some opportunity for bacterial growth, if you simply add water daily to what's left in the tank, as I do?

I guess if you rinse out and air dry your water chamber daily, it would be less necessary to clean weekly.

Hi,
I have been using a cpap now for 1 1/2 yrs. I use Johnsons baby shampoo also and it works well for me. I wash all my equipment every sat. (1x wk). I use distilled water because we have well water. Even though I use distilled water the reservoir gets a musty smell. I empty it of water and put about 1/4 c. white vinegar/only in it and shake it well letting it sit for an hr. or so. The hose I coil up and fill with white vinegar/only arranging it so it does not run out. I let this set also like the reservoir. This seems to work well for me. I did not think I needed the cpap but my numbers were high and now I look forward to going to bed to rest. It did take me 6 mos. to get use to the cpap and even now on rare occasions I feel like it's suffocating me. There are times I wake up early in the morning 4-5 and take it off thinking I can rest better but inevitably I dream and sometimes wake myself gasping for air. I have this gasping some if I take a quick nap (in the recliner) during the day too. So, I would have to say I need it and it definately works!!!

Yes, I do. Plain Johnson's, sometimes generic, baby shampoo -- daily, for cleaning of all washable parts. I have never noticed any film or slipperiness, etc. Cloudiness yes, but apparently that happens regardless of what cleaner is used.

A shame the manufacturers have never flat come out and just recommended a brand(s) to use -- it would make things so much simpler.
