How do I clean and maintain my TUSHY Wave?Updated 18 hours ago
Your Wave's nozzle stays tucked away in its own poo-free cocoons until use, and they rinse themselves with running water every time, completely hands-free.
But a bidet can't clean itself. You should clean your TUSHY as often as you clean your toilet, using a mild, neutral-pH cleaner. Good options include Simple Green, Dr. Bronner's Sal Suds, or any soap that isn't harsh or caustic. Not sure about something you've got on hand? Send us the label, and we'll confirm it's a good match.
The TUHSHY Wave has an easily removable lid and seat, so you can get around the hinges for a thorough clean. Avoid spraying cleaner directly onto your TUSHY. Wipe surfaces down with a damp cloth, and manually pull down the nozzles to clean around them.
⚠️ Do not use bleach, thinner, benzene, acidic chemicals, chloride, or hydrochloric acid detergent. These can discolor or scratch your TUSHY, corrode it, or damage your home. Harsh chemicals on your water hoses specifically can cause cracking, leaks, and water damage.
A poorly maintained bidet can malfunction. If you have hard water, the nozzles can build up sediment or calcium over time. The easy fix: wrap each nozzle with a rag or paper towel soaked in white distilled vinegar and let it sit for 30 minutes to a few hours.
Annual Inspection
Your TUSHY was designed to last for years of improved hygiene and enjoyment. That said, all plumbing parts in your home should be reviewed and replaced periodically to ensure proper functionality and reduce any risk to your property. TUSHY is no exception to this general plumbing rule.
We recommend a quick once-a-year check. Here's what to look for:
- Hoses and tubing — cracks, bulges, brittleness, kinks, or general wear
- Adapters and connections — corrosion, mineral buildup, or looseness
- Any signs of leaking, rusting, or material deterioration
If you spot any of the above:
- Turn off the water supply at the shutoff valve.
- Stop using your TUSHY until the part is replaced.
- Replace the affected part before using it again.
As a general rule of thumb, we recommend replacing hoses and tubing every 4 years, or sooner if you notice any signs of wear.
