really helps because O2 dries out your throat and mucus membranes, get a quart size Mason jar, drill two 1/4" holes in the lid solder a piece of copper or brass tubing 1" long flush to the top of the lid, the second 2" long midway through the lid, cut a piece of your mask hose so it fits from the midway tube to the bottom of the jar, hook your jar with a short piece of hose from the mid to your tanks, and your mask to the flush tube, so the air passes through the distilled water you added about 2/3 full, that bubbling sound is tranqualizing as you breathe the oxygen, I was buying the 4' high oxygen tanks, well just the oxygen, the company owned the tanks for about eleven bucks a tank awhile back, I don't know if the medical supply houses use any purity standards or just fill the tanks with exhaust fumes off the freeway, I have been using a concentrator for the last 12 years, it kicks out 90% O2 and have been very pleased with it, my home air is well filtered so at least I know what's going in my lungs, do I sound paranoid?
