Hippomed Air One inhalation mask for horses including accessories

What mask sizes are there?

• For the AirOne (socket, wired): Shetty, pony, warmblood/Icelandic horse and draft horse
• For the AirOne Flex (battery, without cable): Pony, warmblood/Icelandic horse and coldblood can be connected directly to the device. The Shetty mask can also be used for the AirOne Flex, using the 170 cm hose.

What is the difference between AirOne Flex and AirOne?

The AirOne Flex is battery operated, so you can easily use it in the pasture, for example, and there is no risk of tripping. The AirOne (without Flex in the name) has a power connection for the socket.

How do I put the mask on?

Always open the ventilation window at the front first, then from the throat over the nostrils (from the bottom back to the front).

How high do I have to put the mask on?

The mask only needs to fit slightly above the nostrils, not up to the start of the cheekbone.

What can you inhale?

Please always consult your vet before inhaling medication. Saline solution is usually safe and is available without a prescription.

How much contact liquid must be introduced into the nebulizer chamber?

60ml

How often do I need to change/refill the contact fluid?

• If the water level indicator shows that there is too little contact liquid in the device
• If visual contamination can be detected
• If the inhaler is not used for more than a week

What is the difference between the size of a warmblood / Icelandic horse and a pony?

• The warmblood / Icelandic mask and pony mask both have the same housing.
• The pony mask also has a silicone interior that can be removed and cut to size, which makes the mask tighter or narrower, so it may fit better for horses with narrow noses.
• If the warmblood / Icelandic mask does not fit the horse perfectly, the removable silicone interior (click here) of the pony mask can also be reordered for the warmblood / Icelandic mask.

What do I do with the tube after inhaling?

After disinfection, rinse with enough water and hang up to dry in a suitable place. Do not hang on sharp edges or on the heater.

All mask parts and the breathing tube must be disinfected after each use, then rinsed with water and then dried. The inhaler device can be wiped clean with water and a soft cloth.

Can I inhale multiple horses with the Air One / Air One Flex?

Yes, as many as you want! It is important to thoroughly clean/disinfect the mask parts before letting another horse inhale.

What are the advantages of ultrasonic inhalers?

• The liquids are always nebulized in the right size so that they can reach the horse's lungs directly.
• This can result in a significantly better side effect profile when administering medication compared to other types of administration.
• Shorter application time.
• Ultrasound devices are generally significantly quieter than conventional inhalers.

Which mask is suitable for my Icelandic horse?

• The warmblood / Icelandic mask and pony mask both have the same housing. Therefore both are suitable for Icelandic horses.
• The pony mask also has a silicone interior that can be removed and cut to size, which makes the mask tighter or narrower, so it may fit better for Icelandic horses with narrow noses.
• If the warmblood / Icelandic mask does not fit the Icelandic horse perfectly, the removable silicone interior of the pony mask can also be reordered for the warmblood / Icelandic mask.

Are the sets (battery or wired) also available for Shetty / foal, pony or draft blood?

The sets for warmblood / Icelandic horses are currently available. For other sizes, please order the inhaler without mask and the matching mask separately.
