Resmed mini help
Hi everyone this is my first post. I've been using my CPAP for three years and it has been life changing. I used to wake up and was already thinking about when I could get a nap. Since getting subscribed CPAP there are no more naps. But the reason for my post is I just got a resmed mini. But I didn't get a hose or adapter or anything else. Just the machine and electric adapter. I use a F20 mask. What to I need to get ie. Hose adapter for hose to unit and adapter for hose to mask? What about the filter? I think I heard that a specific filter will aid in humidification. Any help y'all can give to point me in the right direction would be appreciated.

Welcome! It's good to hear you're doing so well on CPAP.
You're right that the Mini has various special requirements. You can see them all here:

Read the tips, specifications, and features (three different tabs on the page). I think that'll answer all your questions.

Re: Resmed mini help
You just need an AirMini hose, an Airfit F20 & F30 Connector Elbow for AirMini to use your existing F20 mask with the AirMini. If you want humidification, the Airmini HumidX F20 HME Humidifier Filters for Airfit & Airtouch F20 Masks snap into the F20 mask. Just note that they are a bit pricey and are only good for 30 days once opened out of the package. Another alternative is using a standard hose with a universal hose adaptor for Airmini Machines. If you go that route you can use a standard Cpap hose and will not need an adaptor to connect to your F20. In addition you can buy in-line (HME) Heat Moisture Exchange Humidifiers that are much cheaper than the HumidX.

Re: Resmed mini help
After owning my AirMini for at least 3 years, I just discovered that there's a filter that needs to be changed frequently. Needless to say, my filter was filthy! Read those instructions!!
