We recommend a weekly clean for the daily user to maintain quality flavour vapor. You should carry out a thorough clean every time the battery fully depletes and needs to be recharged. You should soak the atomizer anytime you notice excess flooding or if you get a red-blue response from the device.

• Cotton Swab/Q-Tip

What To Clean to get the best flavour?

The most important bit to keep clean of your Puffco Peak Pro is the chamber. This is because it comes into contact with concentrates the most. Excessive residue and grime may result in an inferior dabbing experience. It’s also super important to keep the glass and base clean, so there is no build-up of dirt. 

How to Clean the Puffco Peak Pro: Chamber/Atomizer

Light Cleaning

• Take a q-tip/cotton swab and dip it in the ISO Alcohol.
• Swab the gold connection points on the bottom of the chamber, removing any grime or residue.
• Swab inside the chamber, removing any residue.

TIP: We found that this method works best if the chamber has been recently used and is still a little warm. Please allow it to cool down before handling. The 3D Ceramic Atomizer is cleaned in a similar fashion.

Deep Cleaning

• Fill a glass/beaker with the 90%+ ISO alcohol
• Submerge the chamber for at least 30 minutes.

Warning: Never use water to submerge the chamber. Water exposure to ceramic can potentially damage the part.

How to Clean the Atomizer & Bowl

Now that you have access to the atomizer, you can begin cleaning it. Take the cotton swab and saturate it with your 99%+ isopropyl alcohol. Wipe down all of the surfaces that were accessible from outside of the device, such as the top rim of the atomizer and any visible threads or crev ices.

Once the initial cleaning is complete, you can begin to get into the more tricky areas of the atomizer. Inserting a cotton swab into the top hole and moving it around will allow you to clean out any excess residue that has built up inside the chamber. Make sure that you are gentle when doing this as there are delicate parts inside ceramic bowl.

How to Clean the Carb

Remove the carb cap, take a cotton swab and saturate it with 99%+ ISO alcohol. Wipe down all visible surfaces of the cap to remove any build-up or residue. You can also insert the cotton swab into the air hole of the cap and move it around to ensure all residue is removed.

Allow your carb cap to air dry before putting it back onto your device. This will ensure that any residual alcohol has evaporated and won’t get into your concentrates when you use the device.

Clean the Connectors and Mouthpiece

Now that your atomizer is clean, you can move onto the connectors and mouthpiece. Take a new cotton swab and saturate it with your 99%+ isopropyl alcohol. Gently wipe down all of the connectors on both the atomizer and the base of the device, as well as the mouthpiece itself. You may need to use multiple cotton swabs.

What is an effective cleaning solution to use on my Peak Pro?

We recommend using 99% Isopropyl Alcohol when cleaning your Peak and Peak chamber, as lower percentages of Isopropyl Alcohol contain water content which may cause issues.

My device is flashing white three times consecutively. What should I do?

No need for concern! If your chamber isn't attached to the base, the device flashes three times, just give it a quick disconnect and reconnect!

My Peak Pro flashes red and blue when I attempt to heat it. How can I resolve this issue?

The Red-Blue-Red-Blue flashing response from your Peak Pro indicates a chamber connection error.
