washing filters

[jbrown11352]

I have a filter sock and was wondering if its ok to wash it in the washing machine? Any soap residue issues? Add bleach or not and how much? Thank you.

When I use to use bags I would just put them in with no soap and they would come out looking like new. You can use a small amount of bleach but I donââ"šÂ¬Ã¢"žÂ¢t think you will need it.

just use a capful of bleach with the washing machine, make sure you rinse it out good afterwards, then dry it. I have to do this at least once a week with mine, when my wife is not around of course...hehehe

Bags will last longer if you let them air dry vs. heat dry in dryer.

After all said and done, I soak mine in 1 gallon of water with a declorinator to get any possible chlorine out. I also air dry.

sorry should have been specific about the drying method..I of course air dry them as well, not throw them in the dryer...hehehe.
