Hi,

I've tried cleaning my aquaroll with milton fluid but the water still doesn't taste right!!

Has anyone used anything else that might work?

I'm off on my hols very soon!

Regards

Snowy

We use puriclean and a lot of rinsing.  Is there a filter in the system.  If there is then take a look and try changing that.

having tried various proprietery substances  I have found that bog standard vinager does a much better job. Use about a cupful ( exact amount not critical) of vinager  to a full aqarole - leave for about 24 hours giving occsional 'roll around', drain & flush once with clean water. Has worked fine for past 5 years!.  I also put  some vinager in my waste container (one of those black 5 gallon ones)  after each emptying which keeps it smelling ok  and use the cupful  as per aqarole at end and start of season.

We always just go to the nearest tap for drinking water and water for tea/coffee - just doesn't taste right from the aquaroll whatever we've done.

The water from our aquaroll tastes fine.  Some water systems have inline filters that need changing periodically.
