Just a thought. Can you have your humidifyer to high ? I use a heated hose so I don't get any more rain out even on max and I will use all the water in the tank each night. is this to much water going into your lungs or doesn't matter.
can you go to high

That would be about 2X the amount I consume. I would suggest you measure the amount you use and ask your doctor.

Asking your doctor is a good idea....
....but as I've pointed out here before, the most water that your air can hold is just a couple percent, and it will displace O2 and N2 in the proportions that they exist in the air - 4 parts of N2 to every part of O2. Unless you are on the bleeding edge of getting enough oxygen, I doubt it will matter.
I can't help thinking that if you are using that much water, you have a mouth or mask leak, though.
