Some things to try. Get a heated hose. I know it sounds weird since you don't want heated air but with the heated hose the settings for hose air temp and the humidity to be delivered can be set independently of each other. You can try reducing the humidity setting as it is for now but your nose may...

Newbie Intro, First Night Check-in, Humidifier Questions
Hello all, My wife has long suspected me of having OSA. She asked that I do a sleep study, which I did a few years ago (came back negative) and then again "requested" that I do another, but my insurance company would only pay for the at-home test.
