Re: No Distilled Water, Can Filtered Water Be Used?

I pay 15 cents for filtered water per gallon. It takes a tank full per night if I used the heated option, too expensive at 88 cents.
It's already almost perfect from vending machine.

The filtered water is 003 Total Disolved Solids (TDS), and with Zero Water filter it goes to 000. My Tap Water ...

Re: Anyone else like me actually reasonably happy with their DME

Yes, I am fine with Apria. I have them for 4 years now. Only on my last order they sent me a mask without the Large size Pillows, but I called them and they sent me a New one in only a couple of days.

Re: How do you sleep with your mask with a head cold?

My Nasal Pillows help me precisely with nasal drip. Much easier to sleep with the CPAP than without it when I have a cold. It clears me up so don't have to concentrate on breathing instead of sleeping.
