Caution– The DeVilbiss Reusable Nebulizer is dishwasher safe, but do not place any disposable nebulizer parts in an
automatic dishwasher; doing so could cause damage.
Disinfect Daily:
1. Using a clean container or bowl, soak items in three parts hot water (131ºF-149ºF/55ºC-65ºC) to one part white
vinegar (>=5% acetic acid concentration) for 30 minutes (Fig. 7) OR use a medical bacterial-germicidal disinfectant
available through your provider. Be sure to follow manufacturer’s instructions carefully.
2. With clean hands, remove items from disinfectant solution, rinse under hot tap water, and air dry on a clean paper
towel. Store in a Zip-lock® bag.
note– Do not towel dry nebulizer parts; this could cause contamination.
WaRNINg
To prevent possible risk of infection from contaminated cleaning solutions, always prepare fresh solution for each
cleaning cycle and discard solution after each use.
3. For reusable nebulizer only, clean daily in dishwasher (if available) using top shelf.
4. Keep the outer surface of the tubing dust-free by wiping regularly. Nebulizer tubing does not have to be washed
because only filtered air passes through it.
note– The Disposable Nebulizer will last at least 15 days and possibly longer, depending on usage. Proper cleaning will
also help extend the life of the nebulizer. Because the nebulizer is disposable, we recommend that an extra nebulizer be
kept on hand at all times. The DeVilbiss Reusable Nebulizer is dishwasher safe and may be cleaned and reused for up to
6 months.
