Comfort Curve. Leak OK?

Post by Moby » Fri Jan 25, 2008 7:58 pm

I revisited the Comfort Curve and used my tights fix for the Swift together with a bit of gardening velcro to lift the tights well away from the vent holes.

It works really quite well, three nights now, and a leak rate last night of 0.04.

That is on top of the expected leak rate for the CC which at about 12-14cm is 0.44 - 0.46.

Would anyone here know if that is a good leak rate? It seems ok to me. I spent some time fiddling with the CC when I went to bed, I don't know whether that affects the total leak score.

My AI was 0.7, HI 2.4. nine hours sleep. Pressure reading on screen 12.2.

Pressure set at 13.6, EPR 1

Thanks

A leak of 0.04 is fine. Your AI and HI look good too. Give it a week or two to be sure that the numbers stay good.
