The next great decision on your list is to look after it really well, so it lasts forever. Even the most careful users are going to get it messy eventually. In this guide, we are going to tell you everything you need to know about cleaning and maintaining your Puffco Peak Pro.
How often should I clean my Puffco Peak Pro?
Puffco recommends regular cleaning to maintain an optimum experience. They don’t quite state how regularly as that depends on how heavily it is used. We recommend a weekly clean for the daily user. 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.

TIP: A good way to avoid having to clean more frequently is to swab your chamber after each use with an ISO soaked cotton swab.

What To Clean?
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 Clean
- 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.
Deep Clean
- 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.

- Fill a glass/beaker with ISO alcohol
- Submerge the glass in the beaker for 30 minutes.
- Once soaked, remove and rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove any excess alcohol.
- Allow glass to thoroughly dry before re-attaching to the base.
Warning: Try to avoid letting water seep into the bottom chamber of the glass.
How to Clean the Puffco Peak Pro: Base
- Take a q-tip/cotton swab and dip it in the ISO Alcohol.
- Swab the gold connection points on the base to ensure a proper connection.
- Swab the airpath with your q-tip.
Warning: After cleaning, allow all parts to dry thoroughly before reassembly. Do not get the base wet, it is electric so this may (probably will) damage it.
Final words
We hope you found this cleaning guide helpful. Our best advice would be that you allow cleaning of your Puffco Peak Pro to become a routine activity. The best way of doing this is to have it in your mind that you will clean it every time the battery runs dead. Alternatively, set a reminder in your calendar once a month to make sure you deep clean your product. Happy dabbing!
TIP: If you find yourself needing to clean your chamber frequently, you may be using too much material in your sessions. Considering the size of the Puffco Peak Pro’s bowl, if this is the case, we take our hats off to you! The sweet spot is only to use as much concentrate as you can fully vaporize without any residue.
