humidifier chamber

Post by imsotired » Mon Aug 14, 2006 9:32 pm

When I went for my sleep evaluations the humidifier chamber had something in with the water. It was a whitish color almost like you had mixed milk in with the water. I never asked at the time because I had no idea of what to expect. Now I'm wondering. Any ideas?

my guess: you maybe filled it with a glass someone had drank milk out of?


there should be nothing put in the water other than water itself.

That's elmer's glue. It helps keep the airway glued open.

Seriously though the clinic had prefilled the chamber. It was all set to go and the water had a mily look to it. I thought maybe it was some kind of special water conditioner or something.

Call the sleep clinic and ask them about what you observed. jg
