Aussie Hose (2 Questions)

Post by Guest » Thu Dec 17, 2009 1:13 pm

I am hoping to purchase an Aussie Hose and before I do, I had a couple of questions from Aussie Hose Users. I hope you can help me.

1) Does anyone know if the Aussie Hose helps warm the air that blows into the mask and out the exhaust port? ( I get cold air even with my heated humidifier in my mask and blowing on my face and arms)

2) Does anyone use the Aussie Hose that also uses a Soyala Mask? I read in the recent user manual that I receive with my new mask not to use a "electrically conductive" hose. I assume they mean a heated hose and so I got a little nervous about buying one since I use a Soyala Nasal Mask.

It helps the humidifier hold the temperature and let's say there are times I think its too warm and have to dial back the humidifier.
I have mine set up with a digital wall timer because I constantly forget to unplug it.

I have used the Swift and the Quattro with it and don't have any issues.
