lud popping in tube
I have my temp at 72 and humidity at 4, but sometimes get a nasty popping in the tube or mask that wakes me up. I have the machine lower than the bed as provider suggested. Also keep tube under blanket with me, but still get the noise.?

That complaint is normally heard when there is water in the hose. Check it at the lowest point. Of course the 1st time you can remove the hose to see for your self. But just Lifting the hose will cause the water to run back into the humidifier.miss snickers wrote:I have my temp at 72 and humidity at 4, but sometimes get a nasty popping in the tube or mask that wakes me up.

Turning the humidifier down a tad can help. Just keep adjusting until it no longer happens.

If the temp selection is available then that means a heated hose is being used.miss snickers wrote:I have my temp at 72 and humidity at 4,
The loud popping is probably condensation in the hose. Easy fix....increase the hose air temp from 72 to something that prevents the condensation in the hose.
I don't know what temp that would be ...it varies depending on how cool your ambient bedroom temp is.
Just a little tiny bit of water in the hose can make an awful racket.

I may have to RISE but I refuse to SHINE.
Re: lud popping in tube
What is really needed is it to be uphill from the machine all the way to the mask, so the water can drain back to the HH.
