Heated hose temp on a warm night?
Heated hose temp on a warm night?
Starting to warm up in the bedroom these days, temperature-wise I mean I only have the Resmed heated tubing, I am curious as to how low people crank down the tube temperature on a warm night. I suppose the humidity level might factor in as well? Should I turn it off completely? I am only asking as my wife says I am sweating a lot these days with just the top sheet over me and two fans going. I’m not drenched and I don’t think I’m sick in any way, so just looking at other factors. Thx!
Re: Heated hose temp on a warm night?
We are all different, so what is comfortable for me may not work for you. I keep my hose temp at 81F and humidifier at 4 year-round. In summer our bedroom is kept at 72 degrees at 50% humidity and I’ve never had issues with rainout. Of course, I do live in the American South where it is 85 degrees at the moment and 85% humidity outside.

Re: Heated hose temp on a warm night?
Some of us not only don't use a heated hose, but we also don't use any humidity year-round. You have to experiment with the settings to see what works for you. You can try turning the humidity down a notch per night. If your nasal passages start getting dry, you turned it down one notch too many.

Standard hoses are available on Amazon and ebay for under $10 with free shipping.

Re: Heated hose temp on a warm night?
I have had good results setting BOTH temperature AND humidity level at AUTO. I have been assuming that the machine makes adjustments when the temperature and/or humidity change, though I could be wrong about that. Works for me.

Re: Heated hose temp on a warm night?
Why would anybody even THINK about using a heated hose in the warmer months?
I've never even used heated humidity in the winter months......let alone a heated hose anytime.

Because some of us need that added moisture (get bad allergy like symptoms without enough moisture in the mucosa) but they don't like the cold shower spray out the vent holes or the freight train in the hose when rain out happens because we also like a cooler bedroom.

Re: Heated hose temp on a warm night?
I sleep better with heated humidity. We keep our bedroom at 67 deg year round. Mucho dinero with Georgia heat in the summers to keep it that cool, but I sleep better.Wulfman... wrote: ↑Sat Jun 11, 2022 6:54 pmWhy would anybody even THINK about using a heated hose in the warmer months?

and, this is precisely why each individual user NEEDS to take charge of THEIR OWN therapy and find out what works best for them. It's fine to find out what others do but when all is said and done, it's YOU who is in charge of YOUR therapy.

I totally agree and would like to add that each individual is going to have their own personal preferences, wants and needs.Wulfman... wrote: ↑Sat Jun 11, 2022 10:03 pmand, this is precisely why each individual user NEEDS to take charge of THEIR OWN therapy and find out what works best for them.

It's okay to be different and need or want different things. It's to be expected and it's normal.
Just realize that what I might love....someone else might hate with a passion.
