Bagaimana penjagaan harian oxygen concentrator?
Care tip: 1) Humidifier: Use distilled or RO (reverse osmosis) water ONLY — avoid mineral water, as minerals can clog and damage the machine. Change the water daily for hygiene. 2) Penapis (Filter): Clean the external filter daily with clean water or by vacuuming the dust. A dirty filter reduces output and forces the compressor to work harder. 3) Wipe the outside of the machine with a damp cloth once a week.
