resmed machines go through a cool down phase after you turn them off, where the heater shuts off, and the blower runs at a low speed for 20-30 minutes or so, to do exactly what you're wishing forGryphon wrote:I would like to see a hose/mask dryer that is about the size of the new Mini Cpap unit from ResMed. You disconnect your hose from the CPAP when your done in the morning and hook it up to this device which would blow filtered warm air through the hose to the mask.

Re: CPAP Cleaner
I do not have any experience with the hurricane dryer yet. I ordered one from CPAP.com and it should come today by FedEx. I have talked to the gentleman who owns The company and he is very nice with lots of customer service help. I am very confident that I will love this product. I considered getting so clean and decided against it because of after doing research it appears this unit doesn't do that much and you still have to clean your skin oil's off your mask. If you still have to clean your mask why use the unit. One thing is for sure I hate to have a wet mask when I go to bed. Most of the time my mask is dry by the time I go to bed but at least 40% of the time it is not dry yet. This is why I decided to get the hurricane dryer.springman946 wrote:cpap.com sells the hurricane cpap drier last I knew it costs $150.00 and it shuts off automatically when your cpap supplies are done drying there is a 15 min/30 min/ and a 60 min setting to choose from I have one of these and I am so glad that I bought it check out cpap.com for more information

Fixed it for you.CPAPcleaner wrote:I am not a patient. I actually work for a sleep doctor who is interested in developing a CPAP cleaner. We wanted to get a broader perspective than just the patients he sees. Internet forums give us access to users nationwide, in various climates. Also, SOME people are often more willing to give their honest opinion when they aren't looking someone in the eye.
Then again, I'm sitting at home alone and lonely. So maybe you're on to something.

Maybe he could get a patient on Dawn and Hot Water. Jim
At least unlike So Clean, that could clean. Add a little Vinegar it could remove calcium deposits, with a jar of elbow grease.

Re: CPAP Cleaner
No solution is needed, as THERE IS NO PROBLEM.
Cleaning is easier than those of you who have never used cpap can imagine.
Often it is not even necessary. The current market is already saturated.
If I were obsessed with frequent cleaning, I would go to cpap.com, and get a Hurricane dryer.
Since I not so afflicted, unscented baby wipes are usually sufficient, generic, of course.
Extra soil is easily removed in a clean Tupperware container with hot water and Dawn.
Fill, drop in, attach lid, burp it, and SHAKE.
Then I just spread it out on a clean towel on my pillow--and keep the cat out of the bedroom for a while
What could be easier?
