Cleaning tubing?
What do the most of you use to clean you're tubing?
I keep a pump with a 6 ft piece of tubing in the RO reservoir and we fill gallon jugs for drinking/coffee etc.
And after a while the tubing starts to get mold looking stuff in. This is also the pump we use to transfer the RO into the salt water reservoir so I dont want to use any chemicals. So what does work for cleaning this?
Thank you in advance; Ray

Can I say as I never clean mine but they make little brushes for tubs but not sure you could get one that small. I will see if I can find a link.

PS. the tubes I'm talking about is the one on the pump that I use in the reservoir; not on the RO unit itself.

You should be able to find on for that, I had one that would clean a 1/2 before, not sure where it is now.
