No residue in my tank from air drying. I use distilled water and dump the tank every morning and I place the open reservoir upside down to dry. I know, I know, SO wasteful. :shock: I also do the lasso thing and spin the tubing over my head to get as much moisture out as possible. Then I hang em all ...

I've been using a cpap for more than 13 years now. I use two things and two things only to soak my equipment and I do it once per week. White vinegar and warm water. I make a solution of ~20% vinegar with warm water and submerge the tank, the heated hose, the nose piece, and the mask hose. White vin...

I notice when it gets to 14´ Celsius and my CPAP machine power adapter and machine get cold it shuts down and gotta warm them up for it to work when unplugged and replugged. In what way does it shut down? No power at all or the machine still has lights but just won't blow? No power at all! As Vando...

Why, what did the post do?

I believe that there's an auto-start and an auto-off, do you have them both enabled?

I agree! Folks here have received a settlement, WTH? And no one talks about it? It would be a BIG help to those of us still attempting to get compensation to hear of other's success stories. :shock: Nobody has gotten a settlement yet because the court isn't even set to give final approval to the se...

I can't help with the plane and using the CPAP machine, but I personally would be tempted to skip using the CPAP machine on the plane. Two nights non-use isn't going to kill you, well, me anyways. I had to DC the use of my machine for 6 weeks after ear surgery a few years ago. I lived to tell the ta...

3 years? That's WAY too long, in my opinion. The recommendations are to replace the nasal pillows twice a month (overkill, I do it once per month) and the headgear twice a year (once a year for me). I'm afraid to ask, but how often do you replace the machine's filters and the water reservoir? Once a...

My c pap fell off my table when I turned over in my sleep an now it has a gurgling nose an it’s awful. Doesn’t feel like it is working the same. Never had a issue before with it . Water in the hose or in the machine? Since it was still working, water in the hose gets my vote. When you post in the f...

I would suggest, when you hear the sound, try to locate exactly where its coming from. From the machine or from the mask. Report back once you've made this determination.

Conrad... You have a DreamStation 1 (original) Bipap. The DreamStation 2 is pictured in the link below... https://www.usa.philips.com/healthcare/product/HCEUX520H15C/dreamstation-2-auto-cpap-advanced-auto-cpap I stand corrected. It may look like the original, but I guess it's been changed internall...

I think Bluper is intelligent enough to understand I was being sarcastic--
Which seems to be more difficult for others.

Is that what you call it?

Hey Conrad...... "I was given, what appeared to be, a brand new Dreamstation 2 bipap . New box, new smell, still had the stickers and protective film on it. After plugging it in and checking the hours, all zero. I still have this machine as a backup since I bought a ResMed AirCurve 10 bipap out of ...

Ok so in that case there is some process whereby you return the crappy refurbs which makes you eligible for this pool to pay you for your out of pocket. Receipts will be required I'm sure. And if you send back the recalled machines too if not already done so, you get that incentive payment also whi...
