Flex Setting Adjustment and Leak Rate
#1
Flex Setting Adjustment and Leak Rate
Hey,
Can someone please be kind enough to look at my Flow Rate and advise me on the direction I should go regarding the Flex setting (and/or pressure setting)?
Here is the data with Flex Setting = 2:
   

And here is the data with Flex Setting = 1:
   

I think I've felt better after using Flex Setting = 2, but I've only tried Flex Setting = 1 for one night, so it might not be enough to tell.

Also, I seem to have a lot of Total Leaks (even though there are no Large Leaks). It's the green line above the dotted red line; is that okay? The Leak Rate is also fluctuating, but it doesn't go above the red line, which is the threshold.
This is better shown without zoom:

RE: Flex Setting Adjustment and Leak Rate
Try gathering more data with each setting, and then look at the statistics and overview tabs to see if there is a significant difference or not. What you've shared is not actionable data, because it's one small glimpse on one night. For now, go with the one you feel better with.
