Drying out the ResMed Climate Control Tubing or any tubing

[palerider]

alternatively, hoses are cheap.. (10$ish)

Not ResMed or Respiornics heated hoses.

even the heated ones aren't terrible. but, yes, you're right, 40-50$ is a good bit larger chunk of change.

Not ResMed or Respiornics heated hoses.

I have 3 or 4 of the Resmed ones and they were $85 + tax here in Canada.
Come to think of it, I have never noticed what tax is paid on medical supplies but bear in mind our tax is generally 13% up here.
Makes items cost a lot more but something has to pay for our free health care

Anyhow, have 3 or 4 but find they are no different for me in the long run then a regular $10 hose.

Even in the winter here but then Toronto doesn't get that cold. Perhaps in Calgary or Aspen, etc, i might use them but so far I haven't really discovered them to be any different.
I will have to look up one of the american sites and see what they charge you for them. Generally speaking of course.

It is the heat of the summer here in Coastal Washington, but we are having more humidity than normal. I just had to make a hose cozy for the short hose on my nasal pillow mask. I was getting bad rainout, though the heated, long hose would still be dry in the morning.

I wash out my long hose a couple times a week. I hang it to dry, and as long as I can't shake out water when I head to bed I just put it together, and let the heat dry it out. I'm finding that I'm using very little water in my humidifier with the high ambient humidity anyway.
