Why’s AirSense 10 spewing white flakes, out of the blue left air exhaust?

I didn't notice if you are using distilled water.
Why didn't you carefully peruse? I wrote twice "refill with distilled water" and "refilled with distilled water".
You don't understand how people use forms.

Many don't "carefully fully", nor should they be expected to.

They see topics, maybe scan them, offer suggestions. You are the one asking for help, and your pushy, controlling crap, jsut takes away any incentive to try suggestions.

Enjoy your morning flakes.
So, when a person posts something and someone comments on said post, we shouldn't expect that the person commenting on the post has read the post fully? Why comment if you haven't read and understood the post? Yeah, good question I know...
No, you shouldn't.

Maybe this thread should be combined with another concerning the grime found in the seal blower motor and the thread about soaking the motor in isopropyl alcohol? Was the grime the source of the flakes?

Seriously? Does that brown/black grime look like it could develop into white flakes and then blow out of the machine?

Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many...

It takes less time to do a thing right than to explain why you did it wrong.

All of these threads are from the same author, in a short timeframe, probably from the same machine. Maybe the inside of the machine had dry flakes and the motor housing was also filthy. If it is the same machine, these should be combined and hopefully minimize the confusion.

My eyesight caught the bold writing. Honestly didn’t notice the tiny writing so much.

Good luck getting help with all your people skills.
