I missed something, somewhere along the line -- what nebulizer is being discussed here?

Ultrasonic nebulizers do not heat or boil the liquid to be nebulized. Ultrasonic nebulizers work by vibrating at a frequency that is somewhat above the normal sound range for hearing, hence "ultra-sonic."The ultrasonic vibrations must travel through a liquid for this to work, so you have to fill distilled water in the nebulizer up to the level where the clear plastic starts. Then you fill your CS in the bottom half of the little cup and insert that into the unit. There is a sealing ring that you install on top to keep it sealed properly. The point of the little cup is to keep the liquid to be nebulized away from the vibrating part of the nebulizer so it doesn't gum it up. Also, it lets you use less of the CS or whatever you are using. This vibrating causes tiny particles on the surface of the liquid to "jump" into the air, so to speak, and float in the air as a mist. Be careful installing the top of the nebulizer because it is somewhat fussy... Hope that helps.

They say put water in the bottom bowl, insert medicine cup with your preferred medication, then turn it on. I guess it heats the water up, but, is any of that water going to mix with my EIS? Or does it just heat something up independently to the medication? The old Nebuliser I have had for years doesn't take any water, so how do these little things work? Yeah, I know, I'm a dumb_rse, so humour me. The little 'manual' talks about heat, which I guess is the water being heated? I don't want to dilute my EIS. My old one, you just put the medication in a little cup, turn it on and it's good to go. N.
