still i wouldn't use tapwater for anything more than cleaning, the water that we have here is pretty clean but nonetheless i would never use it in a humidifier. there are alot of people on the boards that may have compromised immune systems that may have less than perfect water, and have less than p...

i wash my mask maybe once a week or month, i like to use the cpap mask wipes from citrus II, i have been doing this for well over two years and it works great. the tank gets torn down and cleaned maybe once or twice every six months or earlier if we are going on a trip, thank god for distilled water...

This is my cleaning regime, for what it's worth. Every morning I empty the humidifer (we're in a drought here, so it goes on my herbs) and rinse it with tapwater. I remove the nasal pillows things, and rinse them with soft soap and tap water. then I put the system back together, and leave the machi...

nothing wrong with handcuffs in bed, makes life more interesting,

back from the dead, just thought i should bump this back up since someone new may need some of this info. and yes i still use this fix nightly.

i use an 8 foot hose and attach it to the wall using a couple of velcro elastic bands just like the one i use to help keep my mask as leak free as possible, and since they do stretch there is less chance to actually damage the hose by yanking on it. plus it keeps me from pulling the machine of of th...

wow just checked and it holds 1 and 2/3's cup of water. answered my own question, lol.

Wow, I'm just not sure this is something that can be generalized. Compare to the above reports that I keep my built-in HH at 1.5 and use only 1/2 cup of water per night at a pressure of 10. lol how much water fits in the m series humidifier? on setting 5 i went through the whole thing in less than ...

hmm on an average 3 day 2 night trip i use about a half liter of distilled with some to spare, i just reuse a nestle water bottle, that is of course with the humidifier set to 1 or 2. any higher and i would prolly need to take double that just to be on the safe side.

lol i was thinking about that with a pressure of 17 or so but this morning when i got up the machine was giving me 19.1, lol. so i dunno if 17 would be a good choice or not as a single pressure.

hey everybody just thought i would drop back in to say hi after my hiatus. i'm still alive and breathing, have a family now and finally got a new machine using my fsa and the nice people at cpap.com. i have a new m series auto with aflex, and also tried the comfort gel full and that turned out to be...

wow i haven't been on here in a while and now this, i can't believe he's gone. our prayers and condolences go out to his family.

5451.0 hours total and 100% compliance. hehe. thats on the new machine i got when my 6 month old remstar auto gave me an e-something error with about 1100 hours on it. so about 6500 total since '06. long time lol.

lol undetermined should be black which happens to be my favorite color. in 8 foot length, hehe. good to hear from you again. ttyl.
