I live in Prescott ARIZONA...like the guy sez our water conservation TV ad: "You LIVE in a DESERT!". We're 5,800 feet up and anywhere from 19% humidity up...mostly VERY DRY. So, 100% of the time. It really makes a difference.

It is extremely dry where I live and not using the humidifier would be painful.

I'm using my humidifier as high as it will go without raining out in my nose, and I still have nose problems!! I just ordered an Aussie heated hose and bid on a full face mask at cpapauction.

Re: POLL-How much do you use your humidifier????
When I began treatment, the DME suggested I set the humidifier on **1**. I have never had rainout-- and now have turned it down half way between **0** and **1**. I have to add water each night. I live in Kentucky.
Re: POLL-How much do you use your humidifier????
I've only been without my humidifier once or twice, when I didn't have a good source of water. Otherwise, I can't live without it.
Re: POLL-How much do you use your humidifier????
Living in South Florida where it is nearly as humid as it is hot every day?
Only been on cpap for under 2 months but have never had a night without it...
keep it set at 2 though. any higher and I get rainout.

Re: POLL-How much do you use your humidifier????
Does using the humdifier in pass over mode count? I use mine in pass over mode almost 100% of the time. On a rare occasion ( in the winter somtimes) I use it at a setting of 1.
I am in Southwestern Ontario in Canada - very humid in the summer- very damp in the winter.

Re: POLL-How much do you use your humidifier????
My location (Aridzona) says it all. I use my humidifier every night, usually set on 3. Have only ever experienced rainout one time, when it was more humid than usual here.
Veni, vidi, Velcro. I came, I saw, I stuck around.

Use my heated humidifier all the time, albeit in passover mode. Turning it on causes my sinus to become congested.

I have it in the middle, my sinuses love love love it. The CPAP humidity therapy has done wonders for my breathing. like I have a new nose now.
