G. DISINFECTING YOUR PARI
REUSABLE NEBULIZER
1. Clean the nebulizer as described in Section F . For
low-level disinfection every other treatment day, soak
all parts of the PARI Reusable Nebulizer (except
tubing and mask) in a solution of 1 part distilled
white vinegar and 3 parts hot tap water for 1 hour.
You can substitute respiratory equipment disinfectant
(like Control III ) for distilled white vinegar (follow
®
manufacturer's instructions for mixing).
2. Rinse all parts of the PARI Reusable Nebulizer
thoroughly with warm tap water and dry with a clean,
lint-free cloth. Discard the vinegar solution when
disinfection is complete.
3. The PARI Reusable Nebulizer parts (except tubing
and mask) may also be disinfected by boiling them in a
clean pot of water for a full 5 minutes.
4. Hospitals and clinics can sterilize the PARI Reusable
Nebulizer parts (except mask and tubing) by
autoclaving (a maximum of 277° F or 136° C), follow
autoclave manufacturer's instructions.
5. Dry parts on a clean, lint-free cloth.

NOTE: FOR PATIENTS WITH CYSTIC FIBROSIS, THE CF FOUNDATION
RECOMMENDS BOILING FOR A FULL 5 MINUTES TO DISINFECT.
H. MAINTENANCE OF YOUR VIOS
FILTER
Your Vios air filter is bright white when new. With use,
®
the filter will slowly turn grey, indicating the need for
replacement. The filter must be replaced immediately if it
gets wet or becomes clogged. A good rule to follow is to
replace your filter every 6 months – at the same time as
your PARI reusable nebulizer.
Removing: First make sure the Vios
turned off. Using a coin, remove the air filter cover by
turning it counter-clockwise (Fig.E). Pull the cap and filter
out, then remove the filter from the cap (FigE-F).
