Which tip should you choose?
Choose a nasal tip for your nose and a throat tip for throat irrigation and tongue cleaning. Within each pair, the standard tip is for a rinse, while the mist tip delivers a fine spray. Match the attachment to your purpose before setting up the flow.

When does a nasal rinse fit better than a mist?
A rinse is the practical choice when you want to loosen mucus and wash particles out of your nose. A fine mist is useful for adding moisture; a saline rinse also moistens nasal passages, so the benefits overlap.
For example, if your nose feels loaded with mucus after a dusty day, choose the standard nasal rinse tip. For a light moisturizing spray, choose the nasal mist tip; it isn’t designed for the same larger-volume cleansing job.
Prepare nasal saline according to its directions with distilled, sterile, or previously boiled and cooled water. Tap water can contain germs that are safe to swallow but can cause infection in your nose, so safe water matters whichever nasal tip you use.
What do the throat tips add?
The throat attachments let you use SinuPulse Elite for throat irrigation and tongue cleaning, separate from the nasal rinse. The standard throat tip provides a rinse, while the throat spray tip delivers a fine mist.
The tongue-cleaning surface helps remove food particles and buildup from your tongue. Cleaning your tongue can reduce odor-causing buildup as part of brushing and flossing; keep brushing and flossing as usual.
Follow the SinuPulse Elite user guide for fitting each attachment, choosing the solution and setting the flow. Clean the equipment as directed and let it dry between uses.
If you’re replacing a missing throat attachment, the SinuPulse Elite Throat Tip with Tongue Cleaner combines throat rinsing and tongue cleaning in one tip. Check which attachment you already have before ordering so you get the rinse or mist option you intended.
