Peterson Pipe Cleaning

Dear Mr. Philip, Thanks for you kind reply and your experience.

Here is a trick I figured out that works pretty good on bent pipes. After the pipe is cool twist the stem till its backwards and faces up. Then you can run a pipe cleaner down the stem with out taking the pipe apart.
But you should fully clean a pipe at least once every week to a week and a half.

With most pipes it is best to wait until they cool before taking them apart. However, for the Peterson Standard #307, one of their most popular, and some of the others, the stem just pops out of that metal ring so I just pull it apart when hot. With this kind of design there is little chance of cracking the shank, which could happen with some pipes when you pull them apart hot. Be sure to double up a pipe cleaner to clean out that little reservoir inside (part of "the system") as well. Good luck. For my money, Peterson has to be about the best.
