Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
Re: Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
Omg...i put my stuff in the so clean beforevablong weekend vacation but forgot to take the seal off the humidifier tank cover adapter...i was so angry when i got to my hotel but i was able to make a crappy makeshift seal. It made that in and out sound.
Re: Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
Blowers go bad early if people don't keep their filters clean, back flush water into it, and mainly sometimes they just do. Take out the filter and try to hear the noise coming from the inlet, it can be a clue that it's a bad blower.

If so that was my humidifier tank seal. You can't buy just the seal replacement so I had to buy a new tank and the problem went away.
I was able to reseat the seal and the sound went away for a while only to eventually return later on.

I have now listened to the sound and I am of the opinion that it is not the tank seal. Your sound has a kind of whirl to it. I had the exact same sound problem with my PR ONE only a few weeks after getting mine.
Luckily I sent it back to cpap.com and they tested it and confirmed it was a machine fault and then sent a new replacement.
for your sake I hope I am wrong and that you are not having a similar problem with your Airsense.

Re: Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
I HATE that the gasket doesn't seat well!! I don't own one, but one of my residents has an AirCurve and it seems I'm the only employee in the place that does routine maintenance on it. I remove the lid to scrub the humidifier tank and the gasket always falls on the floor.

Re: Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
About once a month, my Airsense SQUEALS when it turns on--in rhythm with my breathing.
I pull out the tank, and reinsert it--all quiet again.
The problem is--it is not repeatable enough to show the DME.
Maybe I will just ask them for a new outlet elbow. (I think that is the culprit.)

Re: Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
Folks the forum software has been a bit whacko the last few days. I have found multiple instances of duplicate posts from myself when I know with 100% certainty I didn't do it. When you see the posted times so close together like a minute to 3 minutes apart...it's the forum software acting up.Here we go again...double trouble
If we try to post again too soon...it won't let us anyway. Did you ever see "you can't post so soon after another post" message??? I have.
What I do when I spot duplicates of mine is go remove the last one.
If someone doesn't spot a duplicate to get it removed...no big deal. We can't catch them all.

Re: Weird CPAP Sound Airsense 10
Well, that wasn't it. A new tank, with new seals of course, didn't change the sound.
