Guest guest Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Question: What is a resevoir in our world of O2 users? Is it something that would fit in a typical sedan or is it better suited for a van? Any other info would be appreciated. I'm just always looking for ways to not feel so isolated and attached to my leash. AB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 MB/ Oh I wasn't arguing that it didn't have a regulator. Just stating thats all they would have needed to add. They obviously chose to not have one intentionally. .....it may be your supplier's policy as it was hers. Unless you are able to convince them or your doctor writes the prescription specifically for liquid then you have little control over that. > > > > > > Question: What is a resevoir in our world of O2 users?

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Pink How frequently do they fill your reservoir? > > > > > > Question: What is a resevoir in our world of O2 users?

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Adrienne, My liquid reservoir is about 3 ft tall and in my hall closet.I actually have 2 of them. They make one that is half sized just for the back seat of a car. It lasts about 3-4 days and is lent as needed by my provider. He fills it and puts it in the seat belt. If I were to travel a distance...I'd need other providers to refill after the 3-4 days. Your O2 guy will be able to set it up with providers in other areas. I use my larger (R2D2) to refill the Helios for when I go out out of the house. You'd do the same with the smaller "week-ender" if you're on a trip. We have gone away for week-ends and the hotels always get the O2 out of the car and into the room for us. No problems at all.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Pink Yes, so thats their reasoning, because if you used liquid for stationary, you would need to get it filled on a regular schedule every week. > > > > > > > > Question: What is a resevoir in our world of O2 users?

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Pink Ah so they pick yours up and take it somewhere or something? Both my suppliers have had their own trucks (well in Lincare's case it's actually a van) and come to the house, take the reservoirs out to the street, fill, and bring back in. >  > > > > > > > Question: What is a resevoir in our world of O2 users? Is it something that would fit in a typical sedan or is it better suited for a van? Any other info would be appreciated. I'm just always looking for ways to not feel so isolated and attached to my leash. > AB >  > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
