Help with S9 Autoset Setting Change

Hello All! It has been awhile since I have posted anything (pretty sure it may have been years in fact). Anyway, my S9 is currently set for 10 whatever's static and I (and my wife) have noticed that I am not getting the same benefits (that is more me) and having some breakthrough snoring, etc. Never...

Re: Several Masks for Swap

Don't have exactly what you are looking for but do have a quattro FX (will have to post the size later) or a quattro available to trade. Very interested in trying a gel FFM as I think they might work better with facial hair. Will post the size later. Both of the masks mentioned above are lightly use...

Good Mask for facial hair?

Hope all are doing well. Diagnosed just under a year ago. Adjusted really well to therapy. Started out with a Quattro max and then shifted to a Quattro FX. Ultimately have really taken a liking to the RESMED Liberty. However, after retiring from the Navy I decided to grow a beard. Leak rate went way...

QUATTRO FX MEDIUM FOR SALE

Posted this before but didn't have any takers....I have a nearly new (used one night) RESMED QUATTRO FX Medium that I would like to sell. Asking $100 or best offer. If you would like it, just let me know. Only selling it because it was too big, I wear the small. Thanks!

Re: RESMED QUATTRO FX MEDIUM For Sale

You can sell a mask on ebay, it just can't be a "whole" mask (actually learned that here). Also, I purchased the small Quattro FX mask that I have on eBay as well.

If you review the ebay listing the headgear is listed as "available upon request".

Thanks for the heads up though!

RESMED QUATTRO FX MEDIUM For Sale

I have a RESMED QUattro FX FFM in a medium size for sale. It includes everything that comes with a new mask. I wore this one for one night (a total of 5.5 hours). I am in-between a small and a medium and already had a small and thought to try out the medium. Love the FX but the medium was a bit too ...

Re: Cpap sleeping pillow with mask cutouts questions

Larry, I am relatively new I guess, been a hosehead going on 4 months now. Last month I purchased a Contour pillow and sprung for the thicker model (something like $80 or so). It has cutouts on both side and claims to be memory foam. Overall I am satisfied with the pillow but not as much as my memor...

Re: The Quattro FX Mask

I have one of the sizing guides (came with the mask I purchased). More than happy to ship it too you (and I am not worried about the postage). If you want it shoot me a message with an address and I will get it in the mail to you on Monday.

Re: Cleaning distilled water reservoir

Every other week I fill mine up with a water/white vinegar solution and let it sit for 30 minutes. Believes it is a 3:1 ratio but I have that written down at home. Haven't had to replace mine yet but I will at the 6 month mark (probably). For whatever reason this is the only supply that did not get ...

Re: Quattro FX -- Please post feedback on it

Received my new FX yesterday. Wasn't eligible for a new one through insurance for another 5 months so I found one on eBay (NIB) for a nice price. First night with it was pretty darn good. Leak rate was the lowest it had been in about 3 weeks. The Quattro had really been getting to me....primarily th...

Re: Tempur-Pedic Mattress

We bought our Temper back in 2005 and have loved it sense. I sweat a ton at night but have never noticed it to be any worse than it was. The mattress came with a 10 year warranty and at this point we can't imagine it won't last the full 10 years. I have tried the sleep number mattress and liked it a...

Re: Resmed and Patient Health

Bottom line.....money drives everything in just about all subjects. Insurance companies pay the monthly bills (and just like diabetes, the real money is in the supplies and not the up front sale of the cpap (i.e., meter). So the compliance data is the factory settings and the doc's can get there inf...

Re: Shortage of distilled water in NE US (Connecticut)?

Really haven't heard of anyshortage but went to buy another gallon for my humidifier today and noticed that the local Wallyworld only had about 5 gallons of it on the shelf. Went ahead and picked up two. Interesting!

Re: Will Tri-Care Cover Second Machine?

I think you are going to be out of luck since they use the same billing code. I can also tell you that a buddy of mine who has much worse OSA than I do went for his second titration (after 2.5 years) and the doctor prescribed a BiPAP machine and TRICARE is denying that. The denial just came in last ...

Re: mask free loan program

Just want to say thanks! Great program and probably saved me a couple of hundred bucks on the first go around.

Thanks Dane!
