The surest way to be able to turn your humidifier up as much as you need, yet control "rainout" -- the drops of water collecting in the main air hose and sometimes drenching the cpap user -- is by using a heated hose along with your humidifier. Keeps the cold plastic of the hose warmer so that the heated humidified air taking that long journey through the hose can hang onto its humidity all the way to you:
