Hydro Floss Solutions Irrigator Cleaner is a maintenance solution designed to support the internal cleanliness of oral irrigators through a simple, non-invasive protocol. Formulated with hypochlorous acid (HOCL), it provides an effective approach to reducing microorganisms within irrigator systems when used as directed.
Mechanism of Action: Hypochlorous Acid (HOCL)
Hypochlorous acid (HOCL) is a reactive molecule naturally produced by neutrophils as part of the bodyās immune response. In stabilized form, it is used in healthcare and hygiene applications due to its broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and compatibility with a variety of surfaces.
HOCL acts through oxidative processes that disrupt key microbial components, including:
- Cell membranes
- Proteins and enzymes
- Nucleic acids
This mechanism supports the reduction of microorganisms without the use of harsh or abrasive chemistries when used as directed.

Relevance for Irrigator Maintenance
Oral irrigators are routinely exposed to moisture and oral debris, which can allow microbial accumulation within reservoirs, tubing, and internal components.
Hydro Floss Solutions Irrigator Cleaner is designed to:
- Help reduce microorganisms within internal pathways
- Support routine maintenance of internal components
- Reach areas not easily accessed through manual cleaning
- Provide a no-disassembly cleaning process
This makes it a practical adjunct to standard device care for patients using oral irrigators as part of daily oral hygiene routines.
Directions for Use
Routine Maintenance Protocol:
- Fill irrigator reservoir with warm water
- Add 2 capfuls of Hydro Floss Solutions Irrigator Cleaner
- Run the unit until the reservoir is empty
- Flush by running a full reservoir of clean water through the system
Recommended Frequency:
- Twice monthly for routine maintenance
