Get the software and look at what is actually going on instead of making guesses.

To help with your questions you should go to your Member Profile and fill out the equipment entries as best you can. Without that input there isn't much one can do to help you get the correct answers (snoring can be complicated); hence members can point you to the optimum software. Once you do that you will be rewarded with tons of suggestions.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.

Do remember to remove water before turning it over to read the bottom.

Per another thread OP has S8 Escape II viewtopic/t75639/machine-stats.html
so no data is available.

Any changes made to settings on the S8 Escape (or S9 Escape for that matter) have no way to evaluate the results except by how someone feels or in this case if someone reports the snoring decreasing with an increase in pressure.

Could be mouth breathing also. I don't remember ever seeing what mask is used.

So to OP...please add your equipment to your profile so the member know what you are using and they can gauge their responses accordingly. You will get more effective ideas instead of questions about what machine do you use and what does your data say because there is no data to see. Either that or add your equipment (machine and mask) in each of your posts so we can see what you use. I just happened to see just now see your old post or I wouldn't have known.
