Republic of Sleep CPAP Tube Cleaning Brush

• Package Contents: 1 Tube Brush, Instructions for Use
• Compatibility: 19mm and 15mm hoses. NOT compatible with the Dreamstation Go 12mm or AirMini Tubing.

Instructions for Use

Step 1: Apply water and a cleaning element (mild soap or vinegar), if desired, to the tube. Please consult your user manual for advice on what works best with your specific tube. Be sure not to use solvents or cleaning sprays, as these can be toxic.

Step 2: Holding one end of the hose with either hand, use the other hand to insert the weighted end of the Tube Brush into the CPAP tube.

Step 3: Continue to feed the weighted end of the Tube Brush into the CPAP tube until the weight comes out the opposite end, and the brush is positioned near the hose outlet. Tip: This process works best if you keep the tube straight while performing this step.

Step 4: Use your fingers to push the brush end of the Tube Brush fully into the CPAP hose.

Step 5: Grasp the cable and weighted end of the Tube Brush with either hand while using the other hand to grasp the CPAP tube. Tip: Extend the arm holding the CPAP tube as far as comfortable for ease of pulling the Tube Brush through the CPAP tube. The tube is likely to kink. This is normal. Straightening the tube with your hand will reduce this effect.

Step 6: In one motion, pull the Tube Brush through the CPAP tube as far as possible.

Step 7: It may not be possible to pull the entire Tube Brush through in one pass. You'll need to grab the cable and resume pulling the tube brush through the hose, repositioning your hands as needed. You may need to repeat this step several times until you get the brush through the hose.

Storage Instructions

Step 1: Pad the Tube Brush dry with a cloth towel to remove moisture and prevent the growth of bacteria and mold.

Step 2: The Tube Brush is best stored in a coil. Grasp one end of the Tube Brush while using the other hand to coil the Tube Brush into one hand, much like you would coil a garden hose.

Step3: Wrap the brush end of the Tube Brush several times around the cable.

Step 4: Store the Tube Brush in a drawer or hang from a hook. For best results, keep away from moisture and store in a room with low humidity.
