Maintainence of Regulators.

[Restart]

Hi,

May like to know how you usually clean/rinse your regulators, after using them in the swimming pool's chlorinated-water.

Do you need to apply anything, after the cleaning process?

Thank you.

A simple rinse or leaving it for a short period in the sink works well. No need for anything more than that.

I've seen shampoos for swimmers that claim to neutralize the chlorine. Is there any sort of wash that will do this too (without the bubbles)?

For swimmers the main problem is dry hair. So the shampoo re-hydrates.

For a reg, as long as you don't get water in there isn't a problem. A simple rinse is all you need. I usualy don't even bother doing anything. When you dive in the pool rinsing the wetsuit and bc is most important if you don't want to loose the color.

Your regs are one of the few pieces of equipment that require little to no rinsing or cleaning after you are done in the pool.

Yikes!! Don't use anything other than clean water on a reg.
