ResMed S8 Escape II Heater

Post by Bartman » Thu Apr 14, 2016 9:36 am

Is there a way to disable the heater on my ResMed S8 Escape II ? It is producing too much condensation in the hose and it starts gurgling after a couple of hrs.

Yes. Look online for the real manual.

Or you could use a hose cozy to prevent rainout. (You can make a quick one by buying some cheap tube socks and cutting off the toes)

Turn the knob all the way to the left.
