A couple of mask problems

... decide what to do about my mask. Issue 1: I keep the machine lower than my head and off the floor, and keep the humidity low because I was getting rainout. I also got a hose cover to help with that. But now I'm getting condensation in the mask, but not in the hose. Is this something that a mask ...

Re: Airsense 10 making loud cracking noise

Could it be rainout? Water condensing in the hose and then making a popping/crackling sound.

Re: cpap has made my situation worse. now what?

... Do keep in mind: The higher the humidity setting and the lower the temperature setting, the more likely you are to experience what we call rainout ---i.e. condensation in the hose or mask. Rainout can lead to a cold wet nose and/or weird gurgling noises from the hose. If your nose isn't ...

Re: RAINOUT AFFECTING MY LUNGS- HELP PLEASE

I'm in Arizona. Keep my bedroom aprox 68 in winter. I don't have rainout since I got rid of the heated hose. I mostly use a 1 humidity level a max of 2 if I have to have the house heater on. I hate humidity.

Re: RAINOUT AFFECTING MY LUNGS- HELP PLEASE

If you haven't already, you could get yourself a heated hose. That should take care of "rain-out".

If you still have the problem, you could try resetting the machine back to its original specs.

If you then still have the problem, you could try reducing the humidity setting a notch or two.
