2.5 Tubing Cleaning
Inspect tubing after each pumping session. Clean tubing if there is any
sign of condensation and/or milk.
• Rinse and run cold water through tubing to remove breastmilk.
• Wash tubing in warm soapy water.
• Rinse tubing with clear water.
• Hang to air dry.
• You may also dry tubing by attaching it to pump and running for
2 minutes or until dry. This will eliminate condensation that naturally
results from humidity.
• In addition to washing, you may sanitize by following the
instructions in section 2.3.
• Tubing may appear cloudy after boiling or microsteaming.
