No. Clean water is what we recommend for a daily flushing. You can use a germicide or vinegar as long as you flush with water last. Vinegar will damage the rubber parts if left in the emptier. Chlorine bleach should never be used.


Each emptier is a bit different. We have provided step by step instructions for each on the manuals page. The most important thing to remember is the daily light maintenance for each emptier, this will minimize the need to disassemble your emptier.
