HUMIDIFIER STOPPED WORKING

Post by BONITA K » Sun Aug 31, 2014 10:56 pm

My humidifier stopped working. I think the setting got changed and I need to program the settings to turn on humidifier. (6 grand kids or me with out glasses may have created this issue.) Does anyone know how to set that or turn it on? Help my mouth is as dry as sand!! ANY help is appreciated.

You didn't tell us which machine you have.
Possibly your machine is included in one of video tutorials that I've linked to in my post (bottom of the post in the signature box). The videos do show where the humidification settings are.

I was able to change the setting to turn on the humidifier. I am not sure if it is working. I pulled the water tank out and touch the metal heating part at the bottom of the tank. It felt luke warm. I thought I remember it being warmer. But the water level over the next few days will tell me if it is working. This cpap model has to fill the water tank every 2 to 3 days. It uses water fast. Thank you for helping me. Cpap relationship's are love/hate at best. You hate you have to look like Dearth Vader when you go to bed..... BUT! As I walked toward my bedroom a strong desire to put on my mask comes to my mind. It is like a strong Cpap habit. I am hooked. The sound of the machine makes me sleepy. So thankful for the Cpap so I sleep and feel alive the next morning.
