Wolaid Basic Steam Inhaler

The Wolaid Basic Steam Inhaler is the simple model in the range, used with hot water to direct warm, moist air to the nose and sinuses. It does the same job as leaning over a bowl of hot water with a towel, but in a far more controlled way, with the steam channelled through a mask instead of escaping into the room, and the water enclosed rather than sitting in an open bowl that can be knocked over.

Specs

• Type: Steam inhaler, basic model
• Used for: Nasal and sinus congestion
• Includes: Face mask
• Reusable, no consumables required
• Brand: Wolaid

Benefits

• Far safer than a bowl and a towel, particularly in a household with children, since the water stays enclosed
• The mask keeps the steam where it is wanted instead of losing most of it to the room
• Nothing to buy again. No filters, medication cups or replacement parts
• Simple enough to keep in a cupboard and pull out during a cold without thinking about it
• A steam inhaler is not a nebuliser. It does not deliver medication and is not a substitute for one

How to Use

• Read the instructions supplied with the device before first use
• Fill only to the marked level with water at the temperature stated in the manual
• Keep your face at a comfortable distance. Steam should feel warm, never scalding
• Use for a few minutes at a time and stop if you feel light-headed
• Children must be supervised by an adult at all times, and never left alone with it
• Empty, clean and dry it after every use. See a doctor if congestion persists or breathing is difficult
