How long can I store the AquaCure FAQ

Lots of people travel and do not take their AquaCure with them.  I take mine with me, so I drain out all the fluids for travel (unless I KNOW that the machine won’t be turned upside down). As for storage, the AquaCure can be ’stored’ for months with the lye...

Where to buy a new Humidifier?

You can buy them online from dozens of sources, including Amazon and eBayOne thing to watch for is the pressure rating of the pressure relief valve.  Most are high enough (3 psi or greater) but we accidentally bought some (grey lid) that had...

Electrolyte (lye or NaOH) solution concentration

I do recommend a specific gravity (of the Lye solution) of about 1.05 to 1.1 (using a hydrometer).  Here’s a good video on what a hydrometer is and how to use a hydrometer (need a test cylinder too)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rj8s6mMAsE You can get a...

Color (yellow, brown, black) of the electrolyte solution

Yes, yellow tint is perfect color of conditioned electrolyte, which is MORE EFFICIENT then new electrolyte. The BROWN in solution, during rinsing, is the sludge that normally forms during Brown’s Gas electrolysis.  If you let the solution sit still, the sludge will...

AquaCure Frequency FAQ

How is the ‘frequency’ produced? The ‘frequency’ is produced by the Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) on the front of the machine. The pulses are DC (direct current) electrical signals to the electrolyzer, not Hz (alternating) ‘frequency’.    The frequency of the...

I accidentally inhaled at 100%. Will I have a problem?

If it didn’t explode WHILE the machine was set at 100%, you are fine. There are NO after-effects of inhaling more than 4.7% hydrogen in your intake breath because any excess hydrogen is inherently and immediately exhaled. There is NO toxic limit to the gas, just an...

Can I breathe the HydrOxy directly from the humidifier?

NOT FOR BREATHING!  Breathing requires the ‘extra’ mitigation of the drinking water bubbler to assure there is NO LYE going into the lungs.  NONE!  EVER!  I’ve breathed a tiny amount of lye into my lungs back in 1996 when I was first experimenting...

Can I use glass containers?

DO  NOT   USE   GLASS! If there’s an explosion in plastic, it’s a loud ballon pop. If there’s and explosion in glass, it’s a bomb throwing glass shards. DO NOT USE GLASS for any container that has pure BG in it.  It’s OK to bubble BG into any...

Do the hoses get mold in them?

That’s a good question.  I’ve wondered that myself.I generally use my cannulas for about 6 months at a time, at which time they get stiff and uncomfortable, so I get a new set.I’ve NEVER changed my bubbler hoses (since 2005) and there is no observable ‘bacteria’...

Can the nasal cannulas be re-used?

Can the cannulas be cleaned and re-used?  If so, what does one clean them with, and how long are they good for? Thank you.I use mine for months without cleaning.  Changing it only when it gets stiff with age, but my wife thinks...
