RE: GRNDMA BEV broken compressor?

March 22, 2002

NO, I am talking about the " spout " on the machine - a plastic nub that the

hose slides on, broken of, flat, no place to hook up the tube ! Ahhhhhhhh -

I need a whole machine! I will get a new one, and see if the company will

replace the old one - I willneed it for new baby anyway. Do you know if

they will do this?

RE: broken compressor?

Well, it's 10:30 pm and our compressor just broke. The plastic piece that

attaches the tube just broke off. Can anyone offer suggestions of how to

replace it in the morning. Should I call the manufacturer, the cf clinic,

or

who? Thought I would get a head start tonight. Of course, we are needing

to give TOBI tonight! And RYan has a cold! Uggggg!

YES, From the stats and sales re records and the fact that most clinical

trials for CF community are using PARI products and there are several

models to choose from. I would recommend them as 31 choice. Many are

very good as well. I got the PARI 3000 for ERIN as it is the most

versatile. It is more $$ but is well covered/backed by company-

Is both portable, small, easy, car plug, wall plug, and without plug.

Also, usable at other country with different electrical

requirements....Sooo, it fits all situations. With her going off to

college and also traveling..Its perfect. You can see them on their web

site too. Let me know if I can help at all. 1-

Well, I quite easily remedied my compressor situation this morning. Had a

call into the CF clinic, but decided to call my sister. She has a guy,

Danny, that, whenever she needs to have a PICC line put in, he comes out to

the house and does it for her, and used to come out and tap into her port.

She just adores him. He also runs a home care company, and within an hour,

had called my insurance and had a new neb ready for me!! Thankfully, I was

able to resume treatments by noon today, and even had a doctor's appt. for

myself in the morning, before getting the compressor. Thanks again for the

help/advice!

Yes, thank you I was asking about the Pari. Our doctor's office has given us

several but I would like to have extras to be able to keep at my mom's so we

have less to pack! Thank you for all your wonderful help.
