For many vapers, the option to purchase refillable tanks has made their habit much more affordable. It meant that they no longer needed to buy brand new clearomizers when they finish one, and could simply refill their current one with more juice, instead.

If you fall into this category, then one question you would have probably run into is regarding how to effectively clean a clearomizer. We all know that a clean tank is important for the quality of the vape as well as the device’s lifespan, which means the answer to that question would be very helpful to know.

Want to know what that answer is? Check out the sections below as we guide you through the process.

Steps to Cleaning a Clearomizer Tank

Step 1: Disassemble the clearomizer

Switch the device off and detach the clearomizer from the main body. Then, disassemble the clearomizer carefully and make sure you place all the components in a secure location. Make sure to drain any vaping juice that might still be inside. You can use warm water to wash off any that might still cling to the surfaces.

Step 2: Soak the components in cleaning liquid

The next step is only necessary if you have not cleaned your clearomizer for a long time. You may use normal water to soak the components in, but you may also opt for stronger solutions such as rubbing alcohol to fully dissolve any remaining residue. Let the components sit in the cleaning liquid for at least two hours, or overnight if you have the time.

Step 3: Dry the components

Once all components are fully clean, it’s time to dry them to prepare for reassembly. You can use a small towel to absorb any moisture and prevent any of the parts to roll off the table. Use rolled up tissues or some other type of tool to effectively wipe down all the surfaces and spaces in between. You can leave the components on the towel for a few hours to ensure that all the moisture has completely evaporated.

Step 4: Reassemble the clearomizer

Finally, put all the tank bank together carefully to avoid distorting any of the individual parts. You now have a clean clearomizer that’s ready to be filled with your favourite e-juice once again.

How often should I clean my clearomizer?

The answer to this question will depend on how frequently you use your device. Generally speaking, however, a noticeable difference in the quality of the vapour (eg. thin clouds, diminished flavour) could be a sign that the tank is dirty and needs to be cleaned right away.

Other Reminders

Be reminded that not all clearomizers are meant to be cleaned and refilled. Some are single-use products that could potentially break if you attempt to disassemble them. Additionally, refillable tanks from different manufacturers may also have slight variations in their design. As such, you should follow the instructions provided in the user manual to ensure proper use and cleaning.

Conclusion

Regularly cleaning your refillable clearomizer is a good way to ensure a vaping experience that is both pleasant and budget-friendly. Follow the steps outlined above and you’ll be set.
