MAINTENANCE
In order for the Germ-Fogger™ system to remain functional, the
equipment should be cleaned and maintained after every use.
The most important thing you can do to ensure trouble-free operation of this component is to
rinse the nozzle out with clean water after every use. By cleaning your nozzle after each usage,
you will avoid the long-term chemical buildup that eventually causes clogs, poor spray patterns,
and shortened life of the nozzle components
.
Important
: The nozzle should never be hand-tightened. Never use pliers or
other similar tools, as this may cause damage. If any issues continue to persist,
remove/replace immediately. Refer to our
on how to safely
clean your nozzle.
