How do you clean your filter bags?

Just as the title states.. I started putting a filter bag on the end of my drain and wanted to know how to clean it out when it gets dirty.

 

I heard of putting it in the washer but didn't know what to add to it to clean it.

 

Thanks Chris

Pull them inside-out and toss them in the washer with a scoop or two of Oxy Clean.....Hot/Cold with a double rinse.  been doing it for a year with no problems.

I use the big filter socks and put them in the washer. I use a little bleach. After they dry I put them in a bucket of ro water with seachem Prime to remove any leftover bleach. Then let dry again.

Ah, dang, I only spray them with a hose at the sink/tub. Usually gets them pretty clean and then back on the end of the overflow pipes. If you do them once a week, I don't believe you will need more then that?
