Anyone have a inhouse humidifer?

Post by john44077 » Tue Jul 24, 2007 2:02 pm

Hello everyone. I have some good new's. I will starting a part time security job at a local college and it will go full time Sept 1. 2nd good news is that we are buying a house. It will be my first house. I have always lived in a apartment. No more parking outside in the snow and getting into a cold van. The house has a in house humidifier built into the heater/ac unit. Anyone have one? Just wondering how this will effect my cpap.

John

Not in house... but i've used a room one over the winter. It was great!

Without it I was immensely dry and I don't like heat when I'm trying to sleep.

I normally use my humidifer on passover (turn the heat off).

Never had a whole house humidifier - I live in the south and we have "water in the basement" issues so we use dehumidifiers!

But congrats on the job and house - that is fabulous news!!!!!!!!!!!

Ive always had one and whenever we moved into a house that didnt we added one to the heater. Michigan winters get very dry and I start waking up with stuffy sometimes even bloody noses without one and my kids get sick more without one as well. If your Machine ahs an attached humidifier youll just need to turn it down some - just as if it were rainging outside but not so much It wont cause any major changes though. If you dont have a humidifier it will if anything just make your treatment more comfy.
