Every weekend, I pull the humidifier off of the Spirit, unclip and empty contents. I use a paper towel, distilled water and baby shampoo to wash the chamber. After a good rinsing with distilled water, I allow it to air dry until use that evening. Water and chamber stays crystal clear! (Note: I do ma...

Guess I'm gonna mess up the party here! I fill mine up each night by unclipping the sides and removing the top cover. I never remove the rubber seal though. Once filled to the water mark, I replace the top, clip it shut and place it back on the Spirit. Been doing this a year now. No problems at all!

1. current mask----Swift...because it is easy on facial pressure points and the straps are simple, comfortable and easy on/off with no readjustments. 2. previous masks.... Activa, OK , it's just too much facial coverage for me, Aura, great, except that the headgear pulled out my hair around the crow...

Super info., dsm! Seeing how small the S8 auto is compared to my Swift sure makes me want to buy one for travel/backup! Think I'll ask Santa for one!

I had the exact same problem with my Spirit! After a week of haphazard performance, I demanded that the DME supply me a new unit! I have never had the problem again.

My Pad-a-Cheek covers arrived today! I plan to use them on my Swift tonight. Let's see if they work as good as Lori's toe bandages..............

Definitely the mask!

Oddly enough, I was sent for a sleep study as part of a physical ! (I moved to a new town and was getting established with a new doctor.) I thought he was crazy! Wasting my time and money! My first thought- "I don't need no stikin' sleep study!" Sure, I get tired on the way home from work! Work , yo...

Hope to get mine tomorrow! Maybe they will work for me as well !
(But if not, I will stick with Lori's toe bandages!)

Well, Snoozie, we will soon find out how they work for the Swift! I ordered mine today! Should take a few days to arrive and I will report after my first night!

I use a Spirit auto but i would love to buy the new spirit (auto 8?). I think that it is alot smaller! Would be so much easier to travel with a smaller unit!

50 and holding!

Hello! I just had my second sleep study done last night. I'm not sure which cpap machine was used , but I felt great upon awakening! I was told that the cpap used had a humidifer on it. When I asked if all cpaps have that feature, he told me no, explaining that some people do not want added humidity...
