Basic functionality
How does the SalinoVatis Mini Saline work?
The Mini Saline uses a natural evaporation process to release fine salty particles into the air. A special pump continuously moves the salt solution through the system, releasing valuable minerals such as sodium, magnesium and calcium into the room air.
What distinguishes the Mini Salino from conventional humidifiers?
Unlike conventional humidifiers, the Mini Saline works without ultrasound or hot steam generation. The innovative Gyroid structure enables efficient and natural mineral release with moderate humidification of only about 500 ml per week.
How high is the salt concentration in the air?
The Mini Saline achieves a salt concentration of over 30% in the released solution - significantly higher than with conventional systems. The actual concentration in the room air depends on factors such as room size, temperature and air circulation.
Technical innovation
What role does 3D printing technology play?
The innovative 3D printing technology enables the production of the complex gyroid structure, which ensures optimal distribution and evaporation of the salt solution. This makes the Mini Saline particularly efficient and low-maintenance.
What is the special gyroid structure?
The gyroid structure is a complex, three-dimensional network that mimics the functionality of traditional graduation towers. It maximizes the surface area for evaporation and ensures optimal distribution of the brine.
How sustainable is the production?
State-of-the-art 3D printing processes ensure that materials and resources are conserved during production. The low CO₂ footprint and the longevity of the product underline the sustainable approach.
Salt air production
How is the brine composed?
The optimal brine consists of natural sea salt and water. For best results, we recommend a concentration of: Standard: 1 pack of salt per 2 liters of water. Intensive: Up to 2 packs of salt per 2 liters for maximum effect.
How does the evaporation process work?
The pump continuously moves the brine through the gyroid structure. The large surface area and the special drip channels allow the water to evaporate naturally, releasing the minerals.
Which minerals are released?
Mainly sodium, magnesium, calcium and other valuable trace elements are released, which are also found in natural sea air.
Medical aspects
How does Mini Saline support the respiratory system?
The salty air can: Moisturize mucous membranes Soothe irritations Facilitate coughing Soothe the respiratory tract
Is there scientific evidence for its effectiveness?
The positive effect of salty air is known from centuries of experience with salt caves and graduation towers. Laboratory tests by Prof. Dr. Biener GmbH confirm the increased release of minerals into the air.
How quickly is an effect noticeable?
Perception varies from person to person. Some people notice an improvement after just a few hours, while others only see the effect after several days of regular use. However, there may also be no noticeable effect. Everyone reacts individually to therapies and products. The effectiveness of our products can vary from person to person and is not a substitute for medical advice.
Areas of application
What complaints can the Mini Saline help with?
The Mini Saline can be helpful in cases of: Asthma and allergic asthma COPD Chronic bronchitis Allergies and hay fever Frequent colds Dry mucous membranes Poor air quality due to heating air
Is the Mini Saline from SalinoVatis suitable for prevention?
Yes, regular use can preventively support respiratory health and strengthen the immune system, especially during cold season or when the air is dry from heating.
Can the mini saline be used permanently?
Yes, the Mini Saline is designed for continuous operation and can be used continuously. The natural mode of action means that long-term use is possible without any concerns.
Special target groups
Is the Mini Saline suitable for children and babies?
Yes, the Mini Saline is absolutely child-safe: No hot surfaces No chemicals No ultrasound Natural effect It can be particularly helpful in children's rooms for colds or respiratory irritations.
Can older people also use the Salino Mini Saline?
The easy handling and low-maintenance design makes the Mini Saline ideal for all age groups. Older people in particular often benefit from the supportive effect for respiratory problems.
What should be considered if you have pre-existing medical conditions?
If you have pre-existing medical conditions, we recommend discussing use with your doctor. The Mini Saline can be used as a supportive measure, but it is not a substitute for medical treatment.
First steps
How is Salino's mini saltworks put into operation?
Unpack and place on a stable, waterproof surface Mix the recommended amount of salt well with water Fill the water tank with the mixed brine Plug in the device, switch it on and breathe deeply.
Where should the mini saline be placed?
Ideally at a height of 1-2 meters On a water-resistant surface Not directly on wooden furniture With sufficient distance from walls Near the living area (e.g. next to the bed)
How long does it take to become fully functional?
The Mini Saline starts working immediately after switching on. The optimal distribution of the salty air in the room depends on many factors, such as temperature and air circulation.
Daily use
How long should the Salino Mini Saline run daily?
The Mini Saline is designed for continuous operation, and we recommend it. Many users run it continuously at night (e.g., from 8:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.). The running time can be individually adjusted to suit individual needs.
For which room sizes is the Mini Saline suitable?
Ideal for rooms up to 15m² For larger rooms we recommend the Vita version The effect also depends on factors such as air circulation and room height
How can I regulate the intensity?
The intensity can be adjusted by the salt concentration in the solution: Standard: 1 pack of salt per 2 liters of water Intensive: Up to 2 packs of salt per 2 liters for maximum effect
Salt & Water
Which salt should be used?
We recommend: Our specially developed SalinoFUSION salt for optimal results No table salt with iodine or flow agents
