Well I've had several nights of no mask liner and putting very little water in the tank and emptying it every morning. And so far no more floaties.

No I use both. I just rinsed off the gray one tonight. The white one looks okay.

Phew I missed a lot of posts today at work it seems. Ok the tank is about 2 months old. I finally got a new one because my old tank kept getting pink mold in it. I checked last night before bed and the filters had fell out at some point. I just rinsed the black filter; not sure if I have a new one s...

I just finished soaking the tank in almost pure vinegar; its drying right now so we'll see how it goes over the next couple of nights.

Wal-Mart...Great Value Distilled water Procesed by Steam Distillation, Carbon Filtration, Microfiltration, and Ozonation. That's what it says on the jug from Walmart. I don't have another jug from any other place to see what they say. I think when I first started I emptied my tank every night; but I...

I am using distilled water. I use distilled water from Wally world, IGA, Rite Aid; it doesn't matter apparently something is causing growth. lol.

The vinegar should have killed it though. I'm using the cleaning vinegar and it soaks for a long time. I don't have a dishwasher so putting the tank there to clean is not an option. I'm over a year into this and I thought I was doing pretty good. I don't understand how some of you guys can let the w...

Ah but the water I put in the tank was a freshly opened bottle of water and it was cleaned 3 days before. I could reach out and grab the "strings". I think they are strings are from my mask liner. I emptied the tank and put in fresh water last night and removed my mask liner. Well just checked my ta...

Alright I've posted before about having things floating in my tank. Right now I'm suffering from the worst case of bronchitis I have ever had. Not the cpap's fault because I was getting bronchitis before cpap; but this is the worst I've had it. But I cleaned my tank Sunday and last night saw this: h...

My mother has Dry Eyes and she has no wetness in her eyes except for the drops, gel, and Lacret's that she puts in. She has a really bad case of it though. She doesn't wear a cpap though. Her eyes have yellowish gunk that comes out of them and sometimes her eyes never really clear up good enough for...

Sorry I haven't been able to reply to the thread today the site was giving me trouble. Anyway. The filter was changed like 2 weeks ago and the tank about the same amount because I just got it in the mail from the DME. My water is from IGA-local grocery store and I do seem to remember having some iss...

Okay I have a strange question for you guys. Is there such a thing as bad distilled water? I finally get a new humidifer tank from my DME so I cleaned it and started using it. A couple of days after that I was checking the water level and there is little stuff floating in my water. I pour it out put...

Ok so I had my DME order me some replacement headgear for my mask; the first time they ordered me the wrong one. It was for the Mirage nasal mask but it actually works pretty well. So they order the right headgear this time only the wrong size; small instead of medium. That was my fault because I sa...

Well my primary is suppose to be referring me to the chiropactor because not only of the neck pain but my upper back is tense and stuff. I'm not sure if I can do the nasal mask; I'm a mouth breather. I'm going to try loosening the straps for now. I had to get some new headgear and its not for my mas...

I have a question for you guys. I sleep on my back; always have sometimes I use to roll over to my side but now my arms go to sleep and I can't stand it. But for a past couple of months I've been waking up with an stiff neck; of course my mask strap going around the back of my neck. I'm wondering ha...
