FAQs

Where a new BVF is used for each subject, only the flowhead surface which comes into contact with subjects being tested should require low level cleaning.   For cleaning instructions refer to our Alpha Cleaning Instructions.

You have the ability to perform a simple calibration verification routine prior to undertaking testing, in accordance with international spirometry standards and guidelines (ATS/ERS).
