Wheezing AirSense 10 AutoSet

My ResMed AirSense 10 AutoSet malfunctioned and was replaced under warranty. The new one makes noises like it is wheezing for me in sync with my breathing. I can tolerate it but it is annoying. Any ideas on a remedy?

Welcome to the forum.

It shouldn't be noisy like that. Your other machine wasn't...I assume.
There are lemons in all products and this one might be a lemon. Did you get a brand new machine with zero run hours (did you check run hours which is different from therapy hours)?

I would be alerting the supplier that this machine is too noisy and is too annoying and that it was unacceptable.

Background noise! To mask any noise. Jim

I shouldn't have to use a louder noise or white noise background to mask a machine noise. That makes no sense to me at all.
If a machine is wheezing...there's something wrong with it. I am not about to use a machine that might be faulty to treat a problem breathing and sure as hell not going to cover up the noise with more noise. I wouldn't be able to sleep because I couldn't trust the machine to do its job.

Little suggestion - rather than your name, it might be an idea to put the thread issue in the title so others interested would take a look.

He's brand new to the forum and may not know how to edit the subject.
I think I will fix it for him/her.

Hell, I opened the thread just to see what it was. If it had said Noisy Machine, I would never have opened it.

Many times a noise problem , isn't a problem of noise, it a problem of perception, of normal function as noise. Jim

Now how will he find his post? Just follow the noise.

This happened to me as well. Originally I had a rental, which was fine. When it came time to get my own machine via insurance it made a very annoying wheezing noise. I contacted the supplier and they replaced it for me.

Same sound?

I had what I think is the same problem about a year ago. Read this thread, click on the youtube videos to compare

Good luck!
