Vaporizerization Facts
Unlike other herbal vaporizer manufacturers who use"food grade" vinyl tubing, we opt for the silicone alternative. Vinyl Tubing is basically (PVC) Polyvinyl Chloride, and is not suitable for herbal vaporization. Silicone grade medical tubing is capable of 400*F, while vinyl is limited to a maximum of 180*F. Vaporization temperatures of 356*F-380*F (dependant on user) are no where close to safe operating temperatures suggested by the manufacturers of vinyl tubing.
Therefore, vinyl tubing is NOT safe for vaporization purposes. Although other herbal vaporizer manufacturers will claim that their tubing is"food grade," that does not mean that it was meant to be heated to an extreme and to be used in vaporization. The silicone tubing used in all of our vaporization systems is of MEDICAL GRADE and tested to the operating temperature of 400*F, which is beyond the heating spectrum needed to vaporize various types of aromatherapy herbs efficiently.
