Filter socks

I have 200 micron filter sock that I have to clean, what is the best way to clean them.

I turn mine inside out throw in the washing machine with an added rinse cycle with no detergent.

I just use the spray hose in my kitchen sink then rinse with RO water. On 12/24 I hang it by the chimney to dry and hope for presents.

I've been doing this process for years: Turn filter socks inside out, rinse in the sink. I let them pile up for about a week. Throw them in the washing machine (still inside out) with a little bleach ONLY (no detergent) and wash in cold water with an extra rinse cycle. Turn them back the normal way and air dry. It's much easier to turn them when they're wet!

I take them outside and hose down with high pressure nossel on the hose. I clean the inside and outside with the hose. Then put in the washing machine with about teaspoon of bleach and run 2 extra rinse cycles. I can immediately put back in tank when done if needed. They are pretty much dry on removal

Double no detergent rinse cycle for my socks. I let them pile up till I need it the day before. I also try to make sure the wife isn’t home to catch the LOVELY smell that comes from the laundry room lol
