"With regular use of the nebulizer, you want to do a deep more thorough clean of your equipment about once every one or two weeks. What is recommended is a mixture of one part vinegar and this vinegar is distilled white vinegar. So one part vinegar, two parts water. So what I'm going to be doing here is I'm going to add one cup of vinegar and then I'm going to add two cups of water. And again, obviously you want to use clean water, purified water, distilled water if you have that. Then what I'm going to do is take the equipment, you want to make sure that the equipment is able to submerge fully. You might want to turn it a few times. So the container has to be deep enough to allow for that. Get out like the air pockets, that kind of thing. You're going to want to let this sit for about 30 minutes. And then once it's been in there for 30 minutes, you just take it out and the same instructions as before, you're going to let it out and air dry. You do not want to put this equipment in a dish washer. You can read the specific recommendations for the parts that you're using but in general the dish washer is going to be a bit too harsh. So this is what the recommended cleaning is."
