Maintenance Tips
One of the best things you can do when it comes to your oxygen portable tubing is check the tubing on a regular basis. You want to keep an eye on the very top and bottom where the tubing goes into the oxygen tank more than anything, because if there are ever any holes or other gaps, you are going to need to deal with this right away.
Also keep in mind that the oxygen portable tubing can be very long when attached to a stationary tank in order to allow for walking throughout the house, rather than keeping the user in a single area for an extended period of time.
The oxygen portable tubing is also going to need to be cleaned on a regular basis, because you want to make sure that there is no dust or debris inside that would be going into you. You are probably going to want to take the entire system into a professional for this, because you really do not want to be messing around with a portable oxygen system on your own too much.
Although home oxygen systems are usually quite safe, once you start messing around with the machinery they can become hazardous.
These tips will help you to enjoy your home oxygen system for the long term of things, and not have to worry about getting the tubing or other key parts of the system replaced anytime in the near future. If you want the full details on how to care for your home oxygen system, you will want to contact the manufacturer of the system directly and they will give you all the information that you need here.
