John,
Yes it is. A true passover humidifier is low and flat so the air will have more surface contact with the water to pick up more humidity, but just turning your unit to 0 will keep the water from heating and still allow some moisture to get to the mask. For me this enough humidity to make the difference most of the time.

Re: dropping humidifier?
Brenda,
Thanks, I was hoping to find out about that. I don't think I will ever need much humidity for my treatment (I live in San Diego where 55% - 65% is probably a normal day' average humidity) so I will try it out to see if that will work for me.
Have a great day and thanks for the help!

Re: dropping humidifier?
I have had my S9 setup with the climate line hose now for over a year with no problems,it might be a good idea to have both the unit looked at and replace the hose.TalonNYC wrote:OK, so it seems like ONLY the good Sheriff has had luck with no humidifier LOL. I'll keep it for now, but definitely ditching the ClimateLine stuff until I see that ResMed does some major work on the platform.
