Regular Replacement:
I recommend regularly replacing non-glass bottles used to store acidic solutions like Star San.
Five Star Chemicals says that you should not soak items in Star San solution for extended periods of time. Even chemical resistant bottles are not impervious to damage caused by extended exposure to acid. Glass and stainless are exceptions. I can’t tell you an exact time frame, but personally, I’m now aiming to replace spray bottles every six months. See: Star San Tips and Tricks

Isn’t it strange to need to replace a spray bottle because it is plastic even though StarSan itself comes in a plastic container?
It comes down to the type of plastic I suppose. If it is the bottle is the same plastic then, you’re right, it wouldn’t need to be replaced. Is it the same type of plastic? I don’t know. Beyond that the sprayer itself has lots of parts and pieces that could be subject to breakdown. So, for a few bucks each, I think it’s better safe than sorry.
