Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 Joe, I found the hard way that boiling isn't always the best - at least not in Kentucky. Although the limestone does wonders to help create whiskey, it can cause buildup on a neb cup that will prevent air from flowing thru. I have used the same routine as you on cleaning for quite some time now. Take care! , Momma to (almost 5 yow/cf) F. Product & Contract Systems mrichardson1@... " abbygirlsdad " <reamsfarm@... To: cfparents om> cc: Subject: Tobi 05/22/2003 09:32 AM Please respond to cfparents We have a Pari Pro Neb Ultra compressor and use a Pari LC plus neb to deliver Tobi and it takes us 23 min. The label as well as our doctors have said it should take around 15 min. It begins to fizzle at about 18-19 min. and we tap it until it about stops " smoking " - just a puff here and there. There's still usually a little in the bottom. Is this condensation or medicine? Also our hose will have a LOT of water in it after a treatment. We let it blow til gone (unplugged from neb) but wonder if something's wrong. Can you boil the Pari neb? I read where someone said it got all sticky when boiled. We've been washing with hot soapy water - disinfecting with vinegar for 1 hr. every other day. Any suggestions would be appreciated, especially on the time issue. Those 8 min. would be sweet.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 We have the same nebulizer and same thing happens here, GrandmomBev suggested to let the compressor run with just the hose, and I have been doing that, works quiet well. I would not boil the cup, it would not stand the heat. I bought something call Control III from GrandmomBev's pharmacy and what I do I wash the cup with soap and rinse it well, then the last rinse I do it with this solution and wash it and let it air dry on an open space. Also, my pediatrician, says that I can put it in the dishwasher, the hot water and hot heat, sanitizes it. Hope this helps. mom of a 9 wcf, Venanzio almost 7 nocf, Pepe 3 nocf > We have a Pari Pro Neb Ultra compressor and use a Pari LC plus neb to > deliver Tobi and it takes us 23 min.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2003 Report Share Posted May 22, 2003 That was not the PARI that got sticky,I think It was the Airstream BUT I am not sure. But it wasn't the PARI. They have been being put in boiling water & the dishwasher for years. NOW, You cant leave anything in that for tooooo long.
