brush to clean hose

Post by JuJu » Wed Oct 11, 2006 9:46 am

Does anyone clean the hose out with a brush?
If you do where can I buy one from?

Good idea for a product. You can probably get the right size brush from
McMaster-Carr, then tie a 10 foot weighted string to it and your on your way.

I've come across this out on eBay. Do a search for "CPAP brush" and you'll find them. $5 starting bid and $8 Buy It Now. (I am not affiliated at all with them.)

N O !

AND WHAT ARE YOU FINDING IN YOUR HOSE THAT NEEDS TO BE CLEANED OUT?

SOAK IT IN CLEAN TUB WITH BOILING WATER AND ANTI-BACTERIAL SOLUTION, THEN USE McMaster-Carr BRUSH.

FIND CAUSE OF PROBLEM.

CORRECT PROBLEM.

I am not finding anything in my hose for your information.

Buy a $12 brush to clean a $12 disposiable hose, that's made to carry clean filtered air. What a sales concept.

Maybe we could come up with a little round doggy door, to put between the mask and the hose to keep the little pests out. Jim

A brush might poke a hole in the hose & ruin the hose.
