Can I trim the tube if it is too long?

Are the materials safe for drinking?
Yes, the tube is constructed from BPA-free and PVC-free materials.
How often should I clean the tube?

Does the tube come with a dust cover for the valve?
The product description focuses on the tube and bite valve; please check your specific packaging for included accessories like a protective cap.
Troubleshooting
Water flow feels restricted or slow
Check for any tight bends in the tube and ensure the bite valve is properly positioned and not obstructed by debris.
Leakage at the connection point
Inspect the O-ring inside the Plug-N-Play connector for dirt or wear; clean with water and reseat firmly into the bladder.
Bite valve dripping
Ensure the valve is properly seated and the silicone tip is not split or damaged due to over-biting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply press the `Plug-N-Play` connector into your hydration bladder's exit port until you hear a secure click. For cleaning, disconnect the tube from the reservoir and flush the hose with warm water and a mild detergent. Use a tube brush periodically to scrub the interior to prevent buildup. Always allow the tube to hang and air dry completely after cleaning to ensure no moisture is trapped inside. The tube is compatible with most systems utilizing the industry-standard plug-and-play hose architecture.
