Heavy duty hose

Post by Styrk W » Mon Nov 10, 2008 3:26 pm

I am looking for the heavier duty hose that came with my BiPap machine 6 years ago. Where can I find it?

I've never seen any XPAP hose that wouldn't hold back your treatment pressure, even the ones Lincare ships me, made in England. Most people want lighter hoses, so they don't pull as bad on the mask. The ones Respironics originally shipped with my new "Tank" machines was quite a bit heavier than the replacement that Lincare ships (Targa?) made in England or Ireland, they are light but still work ok.
