Hi Everyone,

Me again, so far so good in the land of CPAP accept for one issue.

The last two nights when I wake up in the middle of the night I can hear a noticeable low humm on each inhale coming from the machine. I never used to hear this humm and don't hear it when I initially lay down to sleep.

Coincidentally this seem to start when I changed EPR from 2 to 3. And after some googling I found a couple of posts that this setting could cause noise.

I checked the water tub was inserted the entire way and other connections. Machine is a week or so old.

I have since changed EPR back to 2 to test tonight but my questions are:

1. Is it possible for EPR setting to cause this noise?
2. Does anyone else with an Air sense 10 have a low humm on inhale?
3. Could it be caused by something unrelated to the above?

Thanks again everyone for your help.

I had something similar - it was very annoying.
The machine was still under its 2 years warranty and the blower was changed.
