  • Publication number: 20150026873
    Abstract: A toilet cleaning system in which a hand held unit (28) is attached to a conduit (24) (e.g., a pipe, a hose, etc.) that is fully or in part flexible and is connected to a water supply (22). In this embodiment, a “trigger” device (30) is within the hand held unit (28) to prevent or allow the water to travel through the system. A chamber (32) is positioned within the hand held unit (28) and contains a sanitizing agent. The chamber (32) is connected to the portion of the hand held unit (34) containing the “trigger” (30) with a watertight connection (36). The water mixes with the sanitizing agent as it travels through the chamber section containing the sanitizing agent and the mixture exits at point (38) of the hand held unit either through the end of the unit or through a side (39) of the unit (28).
