Humidification

Post by Gr8fulG » Sun Feb 10, 2019 1:39 pm

I had my ResMed’s set at the highest 8 for humidificTion and couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t working .
It’s because the hose was sagging down near the floor.
Still can’t seem to find the right setting. I’m either drowning or really dry. Any suggestions?

Is it that the humidification that isn't functioning, or it isn't working to help you sleep? Dunno if this helps but I live in a dry climate during the winter and putting a humidifier in my room has helped my machine significantly. With the humidifier in here it doesn't "rainout" anymore at higher CPAP humidity levels.
