This character has the ice radical on the left, when the ice melts it transfers into water, and we often CLEAN with water.

The middle section of the right part of the character resembles the right side of 扫 (which means “to clean”), implying that this character means “CLEAN.”

The right side looks like 扫, CLEANing so thoroughly that everything becomes crystal clear like ice.

This character’s right side looks like a handheld shower head and two knobs, spraying out cold water (left side’s ice radical) to make you clean
