A. Balance is very important, especially for people that use canes or walkers, to avoid falling. We offer shoulder bags or backpacks for portable tanks, both are good options for helping with balance. I especially recommend backpacks because they center the weight of the tank in the center of your back and make walking/keeping your balance easier. There are also wheeled carts to hold tanks that can pushed/pulled along side of you to avoid carrying the extra weight.

A.  A small amount of water droplets in the tubing is normal and generally not a big worry. However, it is possible for them to build up enough to clog the tube. If you are using a humidifier, first try using less water to avoid it flowing into the tubing. You can also add a water trap that will collect excess water, and can be emptied periodically. It is also a good idea to avoid having a fan blow on the tubing or anything that could make the tubing cold, which can make the condensation build up worse.
