(
item no. 101-NOZL/STR
) The nozzle sponge
helps in trapping and absorbing larger
droplets of water. It is recommended that
the nozzle strip be changed as needed or
once every six months. This nozzle
sponge lies beneath the plastic nozzle cap
and is different from the Aroma Therapy
(AT-1)
attachment
that
also
has
disposable strips for aroma therapy.
Note: Placing oils on the nozzle sponge will
decreases its effectiveness by making it
more repellant to water.
