One reply to your previous thread about the same problem which you never responded to.

You have had horrible luck with the Respironics DreamStation model line...most people won't be having the problems you are having and most people will have the chamber at least last the night even with maximum humidity being delivered.

You need to rule out leaks first...large leaks and/or higher air flow will cause more water to be used up faster.
You need to use available software to figure out if leaks are the culprit.
If they aren't the culprit...maybe it's time to get a ResMed machine.
