How often do I need to sanitize it? Would running it under very hot water service?

Dear customer, I use this at home as well and just running hot water after usage cleans out the stone pretty good. About once a month or so, depending on usage, I put it in sanitizing liquid for about 30 minutes. Cuccio describes that this stone is 100% sanitizable and can be immersed in any sanitizing liquid or solution. Thank you!Lifetime guarantee.

Running it under water seems to do the trick...That's what I do and it still looks completely clean. After I use it I set it on an old sponge and it dries out until I need it again.

It shouldn't be a problem, as long as you flush the water heater with vinegar once a year. This is regular maintenance regardless of how hard the water is. You can find a decent circulation pump for around $50 on Amazon, and tutorials on how to do this on YouTube. Hard water shouldn't stop you from buying this heater...has been working flawlessly for us for more than two years!

I haven't had any problems with mine and I just use hot soap and water to clean it

I cleaned the preowned one I bought with soft scrub with bleach. Rinse well. I cleaned and sanitized all at one time.

I've had mine since last year and use regularly, haven't had any problems. My previous one lasted for years but I think when cleaning it I had the water level too high and burnt out the element.

The temp is 212 degrees in the tank. To sanitize, you need to apply steam for 15 seconds. Water at 74 degrees will sanitize, and to be steam water has to be at least 100 degrees. The hotter the water the more quickly it sanitizes. If you hold a steam mop on something for too long it could damage it.

You can run it under warm water and scrub it with a rag - just remember to wait until it's all the way cooled down so it won't crack

I have it located outside under a shop sink. I've cleaned it one time in five years. But I only have it plugged in during the winter. So I would say it depends on your water condition and amount of use. I'm very happy with it.

I have no idea. I have used to the dozen times and cleaned it with a hard surface cleaner and no one has ever gotten sick

Every other day and then I clean it once a week by putting white vinegar and water in it and then run it for 1/2 an hour. Hope this helps

I use an antibacterial soap and warm water.....as long as its off you can run the part that gets inserted under running water, being careful not get water in the hole where the air is released. I just put my finger tip over it.

I have had mine for over a year. It runs 24/7. Just clean it every few months and clean/replace the ozone plates. Works great and always a clean smell in my house.

I use mine daily, and I wash it about 3-4 times a month. No mildew issues here, as long as you keep it somewhat clean I don't think you'll have an issue.

It has an exposed heating element in the bottom that makes it difficult to clean. It does not have to be cleaned very often but I think 2-3 times per year delending on how much it is used. If I had it to do over then I would have bought a different unit.

Hello C. Christopher, it's not recommended to run hot water through the filter. Just run cold water when you switch to use the filter. And also, when you first installed the filter system on, let it run on cold water for about 4-5minutes, that's only when the filter is new, after that it will be ok. But again don't recommend running hot water through it ever. I hope I have answered your question and helped a bit. Have a nice one.

I have had mine for 2 years now and have not had any problems. The temps are constant and no service work has been needed.
