PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the durability life of a vapor phase epitaxial growth device by reducing self-heat generation of a vacuum pump during a cleaning operation of the vapor phase epitaxial growth device where the vapor phase epitaxial growth device has a high risk of damage, and to make it possible to use an inexpensive sealing member. SOLUTION: When cleaning the vapor phase epitaxial growth device is carried out using cleaning gas such as ClF<SB>3</SB>gas, the number of revolutions of a vacuum exhaust pump is decreased, thus reducing the self-heating value due to adiabatic compression of the vacuum exhaust pump.
