Re: Distilled Water?
I was in Target today and checked. It was with all the other water, red cap, 89 cents per gallon.

Sorry for the wild goose chase. Like I said, I need to hang out here more and learn the lingo.jimnsc wrote:How about that? Had us wracking our brains trying to help you and all the time it was just "face farts!"
Occam's facemask, or something like that.

Re: Distilled Water?
I did a small survey two years ago when I was buying it constantly for my kids humidifiers (we went whole house later). I seem to recall the prices were per gallon as follows: Walmart 70 cents Giant (grocery) 80 cents Target 85 cents Rite Aid $1.25 CVS $1.25 If its so widely available here (PA), I a...

Re: Vent noise/leaks disturbing spouse
Ok - new info. First, my pressure is set at 9. Second, my wife and I were able to recreate the sound. It wasn't mouth breathing, it isn't the vent holes, its the seal of the mask to my face. Somehow I am generating a large leak, that only onsets when I fall asleep. I am not sure why that is, and ove...

Re: Vent noise/leaks disturbing spouse
Ok - I was wrong on the mask. Its Respronics comfortgel Blue. I have had that mask for at least two iterations, although my very first mask was its predecessor. I was first diagnosed in 2009, so the machine is relatively new, although it lacks many of the bells and whistles that many here use. I for...
