C.H. Cleans Hoses – In-Place Marine Hose Cleaner for Descaling and Odor Removal

Restore the flow and freshness of your marine sanitation system with C.H. Cleans Hoses, Raritan’s powerful in-place hose cleaner and deodorizer. Built specifically for marine environments, this fast-acting solution breaks down uric scale, mineral deposits, and odor-causing buildup inside hoses—without the need to remove or disassemble plumbing.

Over time, sanitation hoses collect hardened residue that restricts flow and traps foul odors. Traditional cleaning methods often require hose removal or complete system flush-outs, but C.H. Cleans Hoses simplifies the job. Just mix, pour, and let it work. The professional-grade descaling formula penetrates stubborn buildup, restoring hose diameter and improving overall sanitation system performance.

Ideal for use with rubber or PVC marine hoses, this cleaner is compatible with most heads, holding tanks, and onboard plumbing configurations. It’s safe for pumps, valves, and seals—delivering powerful cleaning without damaging sensitive materials. Whether you're dealing with slow flush cycles, recurring odors, or preparing for a new season, C.H. offers peace of mind and preventative care.

Usage is quick and boater-friendly: combine with fresh water, pour into the system through your toilet or direct access point, then allow the formula to sit and dissolve scale. A single treatment can dramatically reduce odor and restore proper water flow, helping avoid costly hose replacements or emergency plumbing fixes while underway.

Regular use of C.H. Cleans Hoses keeps sanitation systems odor-free, efficient, and ready for extended cruising. It's an essential tool for liveaboards, seasonal boaters, and marine professionals who want to maintain clean plumbing without the mess.

No disassembly. No harsh fumes. Just clean hoses—made easy.

C.H. Cleans Hoses – Fast, Effective Hose Descaler for Marine Sanitation Systems

Clear your lines before they clog.

C.H. Cleans Hoses by Raritan is the easy, effective way to clean sanitation hoses without removing them — no banging on the dock, no messy disassembly, just powerful descaling that works while the hose is still in place.

Whether you flush with saltwater or freshwater, scale buildup is inevitable. Over time, marine hoses narrow due to layers of calcium carbonate and uric scale, reducing flow and increasing odor. Raritan’s C.H. Cleans Hoses breaks down that buildup and restores performance — before you’re stuck with a full clog.

Why Use C.H. Cleans Hoses?

Clean Without Removing Hoses: Just mix, pour, and let sit. No need to disassemble your sanitation system.
Removes Hard Deposits and Odors: Targets calcium scale, uric buildup, and waste residue trapped in hoses and fittings.
Ideal for Blackwater Systems: Works on any 1½" hose — especially helpful in systems using saltwater flush.
Maintains MSD Efficiency: Safe and effective for cleaning Raritan Electroscan, Lectra/San, and other Type I MSDs.

How It Works

Mix the solution per instructions

You’ll restore flow, reduce odors, and keep your sanitation system working at peak performance.

FAQ

Q: How often should I use it?
Every few months, or more frequently if you use saltwater flush or notice slow drainage.

Q: Is it safe for MSD units?
Yes. It’s safe for use in Raritan’s Electroscan, Lectra/San, and other systems where buildup may affect performance.

Q: What happens if I don’t clean my hoses?
