Title: 02 question
Post by catherinelane on Aug 21^st, 2007, 4:02pm

i had a large canister of 02 just before my last cycle ended....
its been sat there for about 2 years or more now- what do i do with it? does o2 go off?
i haven't opened it, i dont have masks and regulator and haven't been in cycle since

It's fine. I've used O2 that has sat around for longer than that. Wipe off the dust, clean out the mask, and give the valve a little open blast before you hook up the hose (once you get a regulator, that is). It'll be fine.

Hello CatherineLane:

I agree with Brew, but the tanks are to be "recertified" every 10 years or so, you should see a date stamped in the metal near the top. You might look for that to see if the tank needs to be recertified.
