Air Sense 10 Manual Way to expel air through hose

[Skyseek]

I have an Air Sense 10. When remove your mask, the machine blows air through the hose. Is there any way to manually do the same without placing your mask back on and then off? The gurgling noise when there is a little moisture in the hose, after washing and rinsing.


Thanks!

nope. it's a "cool down" function which stops after a few minutes. i'm sorry i can't remember how long.

and if i may humbly suggest? there is really no need to wash the hose. the air in the hose is the same air you breath all day without any harm.

I don't understand what you are wanting.
Are you wanting to just run the machine and have it blow air for a period of time after you have washed the hose to get rid of minor water droplets in the hose?
If so, yes...but you have to turn SmartStart off then you can start the machine and it will blow air until you stop it.

If that's not it...please clarify what and why you are wanting to have the air in the hose keep blowing.

Thanks for the reply…. Think I will keep things the way they are

Not only is washing the hose usually unnecessary, but it actually exposes
the insides to contaminants that would never get there if you just left it alone.
And then there is the silly wet hose crap you get to deal with.
Frequent handling wears out the hose quicker so they get to sell you another,
and another, and another.
I'm sure they love you at the DME clip joint.
