Vinegar should work fine. We used it as a home disinfectant for cleaning
trach tubes for my son on a vent. I just picked up a p-vale when I was in
High Springs at the EE store and plan to use vinegar and a syringe ( a
turkey baster would work fine ) to purge it after each dive. simpler than
taking it apart.

Shoot it down the balance valve as well.
