I noticed on this board's website there are 2 different ResMed ClimateLine heated hoses for S9 machines; there's a regular ClimateLine hose or tubing and a ClimateLineMax hose or tubing which it's description states it's designed for Bi-Level machines. Will either hose work on a ResMed S9 VPAP S Bi-Level machine or not? Would I need to purchase a ClimateLineMax hose for a ResMed S9 VPAP S Bi-Level machine that will be set on 22cmIPAP and 18cmEPAP? Would I need the larger hose since my pressure is so high or not?
Specs on the ClimateLine hose - 78" long; hose diameter is 15mm; retail price on CPAP.com - $40.00
Specs on the ClimateLineMax hose - 75" long; hose diameter is 19mm; retail price on CPAP.com - $51.00
Could the larger ClimateLineMax hose cause problems with a full face mask sealing properly at a pressure of 22cm or would I be better served by purchasing the smaller diameter ClimateLine hose; the 15mm one since my pressure is now 22cm?

Re: ClimateLine tubing for an S9 Bi-Level machine
With over 50 views nobody on this board has any input to offer on which ClimateLine hose would be better to use on a BIPAP? Nobody?

My reading of the specs has the difference being just hose diameter.
I can't find anything that would indicate a preference.
Flip a coin and pick.

Hose diameter does not impact pressure. I use an S9 Autoset/H5i with ClimateLine - it works fine and is quiet in use. My pressures are in the 10-12 range
