Quick answer
Wash your Lansinoh Extra Pumping Set after every use. Hand wash or use the top rack of the dishwasher, then air dry on a clean towel. Replace valves and membranes every 1-2 months.
Why cleaning matters for your pumping set
Milk residue can clog valves and membranes, reducing suction and pumping efficiency. A clean set also prevents bacteria growth, keeping your milk safe for your baby.
The Lansinoh Extra Pumping Set works with NaturalWave, Signature Pro, and Signature Comfort pumps. The parts are the same, so the cleaning steps apply to all.
Choosing between hand washing and dishwasher
Hand washing is gentler on the silicone membranes and valves. The dishwasher is convenient but can warp parts over time if placed on the bottom rack or near the heating element.
Always place small parts in a closed mesh bag on the top rack. Avoid high-heat drying cycles.
Step-by-step cleaning guide
- Disassemble all parts: Separate the flange, valve, membrane, bottle, and screw cap. Remove the small white membrane from the valve. Checkpoint: Make sure the membrane is removed; it often gets stuck and traps milk.
- Rinse with cool water: Rinse each part under cool running water to remove milk residue. Use a gentle stream to avoid splashing.
- Wash with hot soapy water: Use liquid dish soap and a dedicated bottle brush. Scrub the inside of the bottle, flange tunnel, and valve opening. Rinse thoroughly. Common mistake: Using a sponge that has touched raw meat or eggs can introduce bacteria.
- Sanitize (optional, recommended daily): Submerge parts in boiling water for 5 minutes, or use a steam sterilizer. Let them cool completely before handling. Checkpoint: Boiling melts silicone membranes if they touch the pot bottom. Use a steaming basket.
- Air dry on a clean towel: Place parts on a fresh, lint-free towel. Cover with another towel to keep dust off. Do not use a dish towel to dry them — it can transfer bacteria.
- Inspect and replace worn parts: Check the valve and membrane for cracks, holes, or stretching. Replace them every 1-2 months or sooner if suction weakens. Common mistake: Using a stretched membrane reduces pump suction. Replace it immediately if you see any damage.
