AirSense 11

Post by RE144 » Sun Jun 19, 2022 10:06 am

I am using an AirSense 10 and have been ever since they came out...

Should I be looking at changing to the AirSense 11 ??

If you have an Airsense 10 Autoset, you're good for as long as your machine holds up. How old is it? Do you know when you'd be eligible to get a new machine with help from your insurance? Lots of people get a new machine when their insurance will allow it and then use their still-functioning old machine as a back-up.

The Airsense 11 Autoset has a "For Her" mode that is useful some people (both men and women), though I think quite a few people prefer the regular Auto mode. The layout of the machine is different -- you can see it on line -- and it can update its software via wireless. It's a tiny bit smaller and uses a little less power.

They didn't.

The Air 10 and 11 humidifier tanks both have a capacity of 380 ml.

As did the S9 line of machines... (I don't know about anything pre-S9 though).

It's just easier to spill with the AS11 humidifier because of its design.

I have my yearly check up with my respiratory Doc in the morning.
My air sense 10 has well over 12,000 hrs on it ,4 years old. Should I ask about maybe replacing with the air sense 11? Opinions welcome. Thanks Tim

Are you going to want your insurance to pay for the new machine or are you willing to pay for it out of pocket?
If you are wanting your insurance to pay you might want to check with them to see if they will even pay for a new machine now.

Used to be that insurance would pay for a new machine after 5 years with no questions asked but more and more insurance (including Medicare) are going with the "only if current machine is broke will be buy another".
