Can you use vicks vaposteam in this unit ?

There is nowhere to add Vicks with this unit. The mist is also not a steam (not warm) just mist.

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.

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

I wouldn't think so. this isn't like the old fashioned steamers that had a special place for meds... ask the manufacturer.

not with the purchase itself and it would be hard to find ones perfectly compatible with the existing unit. I love mine though, sturdy and classy. The extra space allows your equipment to 'breathe'. It is not an hindrance but a plus.

you can if you get an adapter. It is a small orifice that fits into the original system.

This sleeve is worthless. Shop vans are fine, the more h.p.thebetter also they are only as good as the attachments that are available for the vac you buy. Retrofit a 20 ft hose from a central vacuum system and you have access to better attachments.

Yeah, you should be able to. You refill it the same way as with the line that came with it. Just use the same size line. Owners manual should explain further.

Yes, provided you have the ThriftyVac Check Valve Adapter. However, you can get a much stronger vacuum using the manual pump that comes with the ThriftyVac system, and you would not need an adapter.

No!! This unit is used to remove air and create a vacumm in whatever device it is hooked up to such as an AC unit. It is not to be confused with a sweeper/vacumm

No You cannot use anything except distilled water for your Vicks Steam Inhaler.

I do not believe so. Units like this are designed to provide air for applications like air nailers, that do not require a large volume of air in a short period of time. I believe you should shop for a unit that is designed to handle the volume of air you require. I have seen people try to use units like this one for high air volume demand applications, and it either does not work or they work the little unit to death.

PS I'm going to try these...2-1/4 Enviracaire Humidifer Replacement Mineral PadsSold by 'Filters Now' on Amazon. Says 'measures 2-1/4....I measured the Vicks V790 cup...that should fit.

There is a video on youtube that show you how to connect to that pump. the vacum bring a couple of adapters so I said yes.

That I am not real sure of. I do know they have diffusers for that purpose, and some are up there in price. Some humidifiers says not to add anything but water or if they add scents it is made for that. If you would like to try on an old humidifier that would be the best to do. Thrift stores carry those for cheap and you will not have to spend alot of money if it ruins the humidifier. You know the Vicks thing you can put the med rub in the cup, well that could be another option as well. I have tried to figure out another way to use those essential oils for aromatherapy that is what I buy essential oils. When you buy those oils make sure you can use them for whatever you bought them for. (food grade, skin safe (no reactions on skin), and will not harm the body thru inhalation. Hope I helped!

I qualify my answer by saying that I have a VacMaster unit and that I use these VacMaster bags for sous vide cooking. That said, as far as I can tell from the PS 300 specs, the 8x10 VacMaster bags should work in the Polyscience 300 units. Also, I find that I have to use extra sealing time with my unit - a few extra seconds.

Yes you can. Just put the adapter that came with this unit on the bottom and connect the plastic hose. I don't know if you will achieve as good a vacuum as you would with one of the regular bag sealing units but it can be done. I can get pretty good results with other plastic container food saver units using this small sealer. The best answer is to go ahead and give it a try and if it works for you, do it.

Im sure you can but after purchasing/receiving this vac chamber i notticed the poor parts put on this chamber. The lid is poorly cut, the copper assembly used to attach the gauge to the lid is as cheap as you can get and the gauge itself if innacurate foreign made crap. Do yourself a favor and find another unit. This thing needs to be completely redesigned or at least decent parts attached to it.

just a word of warning--if you wash the foam filter, make sure it is totallydry before you run vacuum. i blew my original one up because that littlevacuum has enough power to bust all the plastic within itself! you can notbuy parts, so your unit is throw away!!!my experience!

No, the surplus one I got was used and had a Camelbak (cheap version) valve put on it. I had an extra valve from my Camelbak Omega (one with a on/off/ cover) that I was replacing that does work OK with the UTA. Buy a new Source (not used) with a Vortex valve - it is way better than the Camelbak and your guarenteed to get the right one.
