There's no need to change to a different hose if a Climateline hose dies...just change the setting in the setup menu to accommodate the 15 mm size hose...and the climateline becomes a slimline hose which is what it is anyway.
It's a slimline hose that can heat up. Even if it doesn't heat up...it's still a working hose unless there are holes in it somewhere. It just becomes a slimline non heated hose.

Thanks for the suggestion however, I've only had one hose since I got this unit a little over two years ago. I'm just going to run my CPAP without any water in the reservoir.
hoses are cheap, even from amazon, next day shipping, etc.

WHY?
Why not put some water in the tank and use it as "passover" humidification. It's still going to pick up some moisture and add it to the air coming into your mask.
That's the only method I've used since I started therapy......year round.
As far as a hose.......I've been using mine for over nine years.
