Aquahale is a portable steam inhaler , that enables you to inhale steam on-the-go , specially in places where electrical power is not available.

Steam inhaler is used for treating nasal congestion, chronic sinusitis and breathing problems.

AQUAHALE !

Technically speaking what we inhale is not steam ( steam is  water vapour at 100 deg C ), or else can you imagine what would happen to our nasal tracts if our body at 37 deg C comes in contact with steam at 100 deg C ! We inhale water vapour of temp 43-45 deg celcius and 100% RH . Aquahale uses a 12 V rechargeable battery that raises the temp of water just sufficient for inhalation in mist form . 20 ml of water , can make the inhalation last for 15mins .
