    Cleaning & Radiant Heat Panels

    So I just got my RHP from pro-products yesterday and I have already mounted it inside my PVC enclosure. My question is, since the installation is so permanent, how would I go about doing my full-cleaning every two months? I highly doubt the RHP is waterproof..

    I could use a spray bottle with a cleaning solution and spray it wherever I need to disinfect, then scrub it down with a sponge/scrub? And then use a spray bottle with just water to "rinse" it off after? I dont think I can just spray water everywhere inside the enclosure to rinse off the disinfecting agents, because it would make contact with the RHP.

    Anyone have any suggestions regarding this issue? Preferably someone who has used pro-products' Radiant Heat Panel before. Thanks
    Matt

    I was thinking about that since I'm about to start using mine as well. I use F10 to clean, so I might try just spraying it down lightly and letting it air dry.

    Yeah this sounds like what Im going to do as well. It says on the paperwork that comes with the RHP that it is okay to spray PAM on it, as long as you let it air dry for long enough. Spray it with F10 then let it air dry for a few minutes then wipe down with a wet towel or paper towel. Probably should do the trick.
