Is change needed?

I have been using the machine for a little while now and I know in the beginning I felt like a new man after sleeping a full night with the machine.

stuffy nose

Re: Hoses

Thank you for the explanation everyone. I was curious because I noticed both options and didn't know if it was necessary to buy the heated hose.
