Sedimentary job

As well as washing the screen washer reservoir out with a hose pipe to remove sediment I have for a few years been using the distilled water from my tumble dryer to fill the washer bottle and also adding a bit of Milton, this gives me a totally clean washer bottle with no sediment to clog the jets and the Milton keeps the fluid crystal clear. I guess that also makes it safer from any chance of bacteria contamination.
