I clean it every morning because it's just easier to do. Hose is one a week, checking filters and everything once a month. I found unscented dish soap and a toothbrush to scrub it all with. Fuck distilled water though, but the hard water is why I scrub every day.

Noted on cleaning frequency, I need to get better about it, esp the mask itself. Why fuck distilled water if you dont mind me asking? I use distilled water from Krogers and its been totally fine.

I pay for water from the city, and by the gods, I'll use it!

More seriously, the distilled water needs to be purchased, brought inside, used, only for a lot to be wasted (since the machine never gets to dry out, he doesn't sleep long enough) and since I am cleaning it every day, it doesn't build up enough to be an issue.
