Dry NE, the tank is dry after 6 or 7 hours set on 3. I am running a humidifier in the bedroom now, otherwise it would not last that long.

I'm curious about the answer also. In January I received a new Dreamstation, and I hate it. The thing either does not supply sufficient air or it blows the mask off my face. I can hold my breath, resulting in zero increase in pressure. Yet the other morning I was awake and it pressurized the mask so...

Thanks sheriff!

Thanks guys, I'll attempt one more adjustment but I can't use it until the bridge of my nose heals, it was bleeding this morning. I did as suggested with the straps but perhaps too tight on the top, not certain.

New last week and I honestly thought it was a perfect mask, no leaks, light touch to the face, perfect! The first morning I awoke with an extremely sore nose bridge. Second morning I discovered that it had chafed the skin off my nose about in the middle where the top of the inner nose cup seals. Now...

My new S9 works great and I am certain that the System One which it replaced had something wrong with the electronics, either of these machines should have worked just fine for me. I'm finding that the water reservoir for the humidifier is a bit small and wondering if a larger version might be avail...

OK well mine is not loud, just noticeable.

Mine ticks slightly when cooling down during the period when a very slight air volume is blown into the hose to rid if of any possible moisture. Don't notice the ticking any other time.

I have a new S9 Elite and it does make a slight noise when you breath out, not a loud noise, but you can hear it. The machine is so quiet otherwise I figured it was normal and most likely a valve of some sort relieving pressure upon exhale. Perhaps I should have mine replaced too?

darimont,

Thanks for the numbers. I assume the 1-5 are if the machine is used on manual mode and not auto? Mine has a hose temp setting but no humidity setting.

Well, I finally won out. I called headquarters of the medical supply company and told them that I was going to contact my insurance company due to a new machine that was malfunctioning, one that they tested by holding a hand on the warming plate and gave it back to me without attempting to send for ...

By the way, thanks for the welcome Robysue. I'm simply frustrated, not taking this out on you or anyone else. God bless and take care....

BayRat, First, a hi and a welcome from a fellow upstate NYer. (WNY more precisely.) Second let's try to not turn this into a useless "which machine is better thread." You've got a problem with a brand new PR System One, or perhaps more accurately, the System One humidifier even when it is set to Cl...

Dude, I know you're angry. All we're saying is to go to the dealer. The place you bought it from, and I'm assuming that's a local DME. Yell at them... J My man, that is what I did!!! They did their hand on the heater plate "test" and said basically, stick it, we say it's OK. Then I called Phillips,...

OP, never mind how much water it uses -- At what setting do your sinuses not become irritated? On this machine, All of the settings. On my other two machines, let's just say that they are fine as if set a bit less than rainout. Since day one I have not been able to use the unheated passover humidif...
