Keeping your vaping device clean is an important part of maintenance. This guide shows you how simple it is to keep it clean.
Dirt and debris can build up in your vaping device over time. And nobody wants to use a dirty vape. Regular cleaning can help reduce bacteria and ensure your device charges and works correctly. Taking the time to clean your vaping device also gives you the opportunity to check for any damaged or broken parts. Like any other electronic device, regular cleaning and maintenance will help you avoid any issues and maximize the lifespan of your device.
Before you start cleaning your vaping device, gather the things you need to make the process extra simple. You’ll need a few basic items you might already have at home, including:
Always use suitable cleaning materials and follow the manufacturer’s instructions when cleaning a vaping device.
Never use chemicals or cleaning products that are not approved by the manufacturer, and avoid abrasive materials that might scratch your vaping device.
Vaping devices contain a heating element called the coil. Some open-system vaping devices let users remove and replace the coil to modify the device.
If your vaping device has a removable coil and you think it needs to be cleaned, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to carefully clean this part.
Residue can build up around the tank of some vaping devices, which means this part might need gentle cleaning. If you use a vaping device with a removable tank, always clean this part carefully, in line with the manufacturer’s instructions.
The mouthpiece is the part of the vaping device that touches your mouth, making it the most important part to keep clean. Residue and debris can build up around the mouthpiece, causing bacteria to grow if it isn’t cleaned regularly. So it goes without saying that this part can benefit from extra attention.
If you can, remove the mouthpiece from your device and inspect it for any damage, dirt, or residue. Clean the mouthpiece with a dry cloth, making sure to clean both the inside and outside thoroughly, paying special attention to any grooves or indents where residue might gather. If you spot any build-up in the mouthpiece, you can dislodge it by blowing gently into it.
How often you clean your vape depends on how much you use it. The more often you use it, the more often you should clean it. To make it easier, give it a wipe down every day with a clean, dry cloth. This will also avoid having to do a deep clean over time.
The charging port of your device also needs attention because the build-up of dirt around the port can disrupt normal charging. Keep it clean and free of dust and debris with a dry cloth. You can also carefully blow into the pod to help dislodge any debris.
There are a few things to watch out for – some cleaning mistakes may damage your vaping device or create safety risks:
Always check the manufacturer’s instructions before cleaning your vaping device. Some vaping devices have special requirements or parts that need to be treated with care.
