Ok doing my due diligence and reading reviews I have a couple of questions.

#1 has anyone tried this brand from cpap.com ?
https://www.cpap.com/productpage/generi ... -pack.html

#2 Do I have to turn the humidity off on my machine ?

Search the term ResMed in the Reviews for that product. One person complains it doesnt fit with ResMed equipment. Not sure if that's true or not. You might email CPAP.com to ask.

Standard tubing only.
Heated tubing is different.

I just use whatever is cheapest on eBay, the last batch we're in sterile packages... Not something I cared about.

When I do use humidity, I still use the filters, doesn't bother them.

Why? Doesn't it fit between the heated tuning & the mask?

Yes, but not on the other end.

It should still function just as well, right?

Make sure you turn on the Anti-Bacterial setting in the Clinician menu.

Before the allergies get bad I begin flushing my sinuses. At least a couple times a day. Also wash your face a few times a day. If pollen is high or allergens that could get I to your hair take a shower. Yes at times I do shower two sometimes three times a day. For some people a nasal steroid will help and you can buy those over the counter, but be careful as it can dry your sinuses and cause nose bleeds.
