With the recent increase in airtightness and heat insulation of houses, it has become an environment where these bacteria and fungi can easily grow. it is believed et al is Ru to grow on the washing nozzle surface portion by long-term use. These grown bacteria and fungi cannot be sterilized by the nozzle cleaning operation at around 40 ° C. as described above, and improvement in cleanliness is desired.
[0005]
For this reason, in recent years, it has been proposed to apply a chemical to nozzle cleaning (see Patent Document 2). FIG. 8 shows the sanitary washing apparatus described in the above-mentioned document 2. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a cleaning nozzle, which has a cleaning cap 3 for performing nozzle cleaning by splashing the cleaning water from the ejection hole 2 at the ejection hole 2 and the position where the cleaning nozzle 1 is stored. A chemical tank 4 is supplied to the chemical supply path 6 by the chemical injection pump 5, mixed with the cleaning water that has passed through the original electromagnetic valve 7 and the cleaning water supply path 8, flows into the cleaning nozzle 1, and is discharged from the ejection hole 2. The washing nozzle is washed with the chemical liquid by ejecting.
[0006]
Further, Patent Document 2 discloses that hypochlorous acid generated by electrolyzing water as a chemical solution is applied to nozzle cleaning.
