Yes, it definitely works... I use the warmup feature every night.

Cheers,

Re: ResMed S9 Giving Me Dry Mouth

When the S9 Autoset has the Home display, turn the knob and the display should change to the humidity level screen. Underneath the humidity level it should also show warm up.

Re: ResMed S9 Giving Me Dry Mouth

Slartybartfast, thanks for the suggestion about dropping the temperature. That seemed to help for the rest of the night. I'll see how it goes from here on.

Re: ResMed S9 Giving Me Dry Mouth

Let me put it a different way: my mouth dries out before I fall asleep. I suppose I could drop the temp lower like Slarty mentioned and see if that makes a difference.

ResMed S9 Giving Me Dry Mouth

I've been using a nasal pillow mask since I started CPAP therapy three years ago on my original machine, a RemStar. Even though I'm using a nasal mask, my mouth would dry out within a few minutes, so I started using Biotene or Stoppers spray at bedtime. These provided enough moisture until I fell as...

Re: ResMed S9 Temperature Setting?

I should have clarified that I have the Climateline Hose and opted to keep the unit on "Automatic" because it should guarantee there's no rain-out. Besides, what's the point in buying the technology and then not use it? It was only one night, but setting it at 80 degrees worked fine. My mouth wasn't...

Re: ResMed S9 Temperature Setting?

Hey, thanks everyone for all of the fast responses. I'll boost it higher than what I originally planned (only 67 degrees) and see how that works.

ResMed S9 Temperature Setting?

I just switched to a new ResMed S9. The instructions are vague on what's a good starting point for the temperature setting. The house cools down to 63 degrees at night, so I was going to start at 67 degrees on the machine... just a guess. I'm wondering what others are doing.
