What number??

Post by linda12345 » Fri Jul 09, 2010 7:35 pm

I have been using the Respronics System One with Humidifier for a month now. I have finally adjusted to the headgear of the Swift LT and the whole idea of sleeping with a machine. I am still trying to figure out what the numbers mean. I have a choice of 1,2,3,4, or 5. What is the difference of the numbers> Does it affect the amount of pressure or the amount of humidity or what? Or the heat of the humidifier?

More heat = more moisture. 1 = Least, 5 = More
