Again, which nebulizer...HELP!!

I don’t know if this will address the problem or not, but a few weeks ago, my saline was shooting out the top of my Pari cup and not through the mouth piece. I remembered that others said you should soak your Aerobika and other parts in a vinegar solution once a month or so. I put my cups in white vinegar and let them soak for a while before doing my regular boiling and the cup works fine now. I thought I was going to have to replace it.

In the instructions it says you can do a low level disinfecting every other treatment day with vinegar after first cleaning it as usual in soapy water. They say 1 part vinegar to 3 parts hot water for 1 hour. When you did your soak before boiling did you use that amount of vinegar to water? And do you normally use vinegar as they instruct? I have never used vinegar but sounds like I should start. Wonder if using it as they instruct some days and then boiling other days would do the trick to keep the cups working well.
