Each week I take time to answer questions from my readers. This weeks question comes from a COPD/heart failure patient who is new to using home oxygen.
Your Question: Can you vacuum your carpet when on oxygen 24 7. Please somebody help and tell me if you can or not.
My humble answer: Great question! Yes, you can vacuum while wearing oxygen. It's a great way to stay active, and it feels good to accomplish something like cleaning your home. Just be sure to keep safety in mind: keep your oxygen equipment away from the vacuum, be mindful of your tubing to prevent tangling, and make sure your vacuum is in good working order to avoid any sparks. It’s also a good idea to keep the room well-ventilated if you're using an oxygen concentrator. Stay safe and keep moving!
