Hey All,

I'm going to use hydrogen peroxide to clean out my lines this weekend.
I have 3/16 with 5/16 drops and CV spouts.

My plan is to use my shurflo to pump the peroxide though the lines. I'll then start at the top of the run and cut off the tap, and then plug the 5/16.
I will then walk down the line, repeating, until I'm at the last drop closest to the pump.

Does this seems like a logical approach?
To plug the drops, can I simply stick them in the 3/16-5/16 Tee?
Should I follow with water after peroxide?

All help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Bryan

Hey Guys,
If I cut off my CV spouts at the end of the year, how do I plug them for the off season?
Or do I just leave them open?
Thanks,
Bryan

you shouldnt have to flush after peroxide since it turns to water

While true for pure hydrogen peroxide sanitizer, note that some formulations include other things which do require rinsing. Check the label.
