can I use vicks vapor liquid instead of pads

You can only use pads, but I do not recommend this product. It is very flimsy and the boiling water spilled and seriously burned my skin. TERRIBLE product!

I never tried it because I do not think u can mix it in the boiling water. Maybe u can drop a couple vick liquid to the cotton ball and sat it on the place where the pad supposed to sit.

The pads don't need any gel and wouldn't work as well with it. You'll want more pads which can be purchased from Amazon.

I disagree with the previous answers. Yes, there is a separate little bottle that you put any good quality essential oil in and like reed diffusers, the oil is wicked up and mixed with the water vapor. However: it has not done a darn thing to the plastic... I'm not sure if that reviewer added the essential oils directly to the water. I know that it does ruin the machine if you do that. And I don't understand how the other reviewer has gone through so much essential oil. I filled the vial up when I bought the machine several months ago...I check it when I refill the water but I have yet to add more and there is still a nice, strong, but not overpowering lavender smell when I turn the machine on. I do recommend that you only turn it on low or medium. The high setting puts out too much water vapor. It doesn't evaporate quickly enough and makes the surrounding surfaces damp. Overall, it's a good quality machine and does not require you to purchase refills of anything.

yes... just make sure to run some clean water through the machine afterwards to keep clean ....I used Vicks- vapor steam (cough suppressant) mixed in my water and the vapor of steam... it worked great.

Yes, you can, but I would not unless you had to. There are some safety issues, if you do have to use isopropyl alcohol do not fill the stove full is will spit and become more of a safety hazard. Fill no more than Half full. It will also produce more black suit. With most flare up issues it is due to filling the stove to full and the fluid expands, so instead of burning just the vapor. How the stove works is that heat of the initial flame, turns the liquid into a vapor, then just the vapor is burned. This has to happen for the stove to work correctly. This is also how you can get a very hot flame that burns for so long from such a small amount of fuel. Yes, you can, but I would not unless you had to.

No you don't . It would probably interfere with the contact with your skin. You have to be sure the skin is clean and dry so the pads will stick. Eventually the pads will wear out & you can purchase replacements through the company. Pretty affordable.

I can't guarantee it, but I don't see why not. The way it works is, there's a little vibrating pad inside the unit that turns water into vapor. You can have the vapor be hot or cold. Anything added to the water (like the Vicks) should get vaporized too.

I'm sure you could.. I've attached a micro fiber towel before in a bind but I'm just not sure if the steam would melt the pad/get through it to actually clean the floor or not Bc swifter pads have plastic liner the shark pads are just cotton/fiber

The device does not recommend any oils. Perhaps a drop or two of eucalyptus oil onto a cloth to breath into in between a vapor treatment may do the trick.

You probably can but it depends on what these pads are made of and what chux are made of. if they both have the same fiber material, then I don't see why not, however if a different fiber material is used for each, then the possibility of a rash/allergic reaction may occur.I would advise you to research this materials for these and for the chux as I can only see where any differences in this might be an issue.I hope this helps :)

I would think so. As long as it has a tank of water I think it can be used. This isn't the vicks one that you put medicine in is it? If it is then I would say no to that. But my opinion: I wouldn't waste the money on these. They made my humidifiers get dirty faster

Yes, as long as you get Pure Ayre on every single part of the pad that had urine in it. You should use a large syringe to inject it down into the pad. There is a pet kit available that includes a carpet syringe with a gallon of Pet Ayre. http://www.amazon.com/Clean-Earth-Pureayre-Ayre%C2%AE-11414P/dp/B000ITUBJI

The VS 207 offers both, but the warm mist is no where near the tropical levels of the Vicks humidifier. It's more "not ice cold" mist than "warm" mist. If you want truly tropical, hot mist, this is not the right choice.

I use 3M 6001 organic vapor cartridges, plus a dust/particulate prefilter. The prefilter wouldn't be necessary for only organic vapors/gases. This is the filter I'd use, unless the MSDS calls for something special.

I'm sorry I have no idea. You may need to contact the company. http://www.vetinst.com/skin1/admin/UserFiles/File/JS%20PDF/EMS%20UNIT.pdfThis is a link to the places on the body that you place the pads on. Ignor the reviews of the unit. Also sorry for the people who barely have on clothing but those are the areas where the pads go

No water is used. You just put the essential oil on the pad and it evaporates from the cotton pad. Order extra pads to keep on hand, but I have washed them out with soap and water and just let them air dry and re-used them. I have also used the same pad over and over again depending on the scents I want to use on it.

No No place to put the vicks. It's a great air moisturizer that doesn't require filters.
