Yes, this is a class 1 device registered with the FDA

In terms of use for the sinus problems, definitely worth a try - we have had very good feedback from customers with sinus issues.
Yes, ok to use with reverse cycle system - definitely not evaporative - and ceiling fan.
You haven't advised your son's age, but obviously take normal precaution as with any electrical appliance.
Also, ensure the device is facing towards your sons face from approximately 1 metre away (if suitable)

Not that we are aware of.
Of the thousands of devices we have sold, we have never had any feedback advising us that a users taste buds have been affected.
If a person has experienced having a blocked nose for some time, the device may alter this - by working to unblock the nose - and thus the flavour of food can be 'altered'.
(Flavor is the word used to describe the perception of taste and smell together, along with any other perceptions experienced while eating.)

I don't believe there is a problem with the machine, the odour is more than likely coming from the filter.
I suggest that you put the 'offending' filter in the sun for a day or two and see if this assists in eliminating the odour.

Also know as COPD, yes, this can assist in the treatment of his condition. We have had positive feedback from customers using for COPD.

No, the device is safe for your pets

The filter cartridge contains 100% natural purified rock salt, rich in vital minerals. The ingredients include over 98% sodium chloride, with the trace elements calcium chloride, magnesium and iodine

We haven't received any customer feedback to inform us that it irritates their eyes or, in this case, dry eyes.

Yes, the device is safe to use with babies.
The device disperses less than 0.1g of salt in a 24 hr period, thus making it safe for all the family.

Whilst the fan does blow air out of the device - to disperse the micro particles of salt - the flow is not strong enough to be deemed a 'cooling' system

The small packages actually contain Silica Gel - not salt - and are for packaging purposes only.
Your device is ready to use straight out of the box - salt filter already installed.
All you need to do is plug it in.

We recommend changing the filter every 4-6 months

Please see below information from our website - FAQ section
The bottom line is that using air conditioners or leaving the window/door open will affect the usefulness of your Salin Plus device, as the salt particles will be extracted from the room and poor air quality will continue to flow in, making it more difficult for your Salin device to control the air quality. However, as long as the device is located close to your head (i.e. facing you on your bed side locker less than 1 meter away), then you will still benefit from it. If you have a strong preference to leave the door or window open then you should continue to do so.

It is not necessary to run the device 24/7.
We recommend running the device while you sleep.

Hello Julie
It is not necessary to ask your doctor before purchasing the device.
Salt Therapy is a natural therapy and shouldn't interfere with any medications/treatments you may be receiving.

A small number of customers say they feel dehydrated, but generally speaking there is no dehydration effect. Customers typically start seeing results after the first night. The product works very well for both of these conditions.

Hi Anne-Maire, yes you can.

Hi Paul, I think we have already spoken by phone, but just in case, yes using an air conditioner is good, it helps to dry out the air and reduce moisture, so long as it is not an evaporative type, which puts moisture into the air. Yes of course the Salin Plus will help in Winter when humidity is lower. The ideal RH level is 50%. Some customers use dehumidifiers to help achieve this.

Hi, yes as you can see from all our reviews and the hundreds more on our website that Salin Plus will help relieve your hay fever and sinusitis problems. There are no side effects and it is suitable to have your infant in the room.
