Might be a fun little project. Is there a limit as to how long the hose can be before too much resistance throws off the machine?JDS74 wrote:Actually you could. Get a hose coupler and install that like a central vacuum port and then use a 24 inch short hose to connect to your mask. Set your machine to auto on mode. That should do it.

Re: RV and Machine Placement
I'm sure there is a limit but I don't know what it is.
There are 10 foot hoses available so that number is likely to be OK.
But, with your 6 foot hose and a 2 foot extension after the coupler, you should be fine.
Installing your machine under the foot of your bed should make that combination workable.
Don't forget to keep the humidifier water chamber empty while driving around just to be safe.
