[CPAP] Settings?

[SarcasticDave94]

It's not the ResMed that's the issue. This is the gold machine in my opinion.

Run the humidity manual. Get a heated hose and hose cover. Get a hose hanger to position your hose at the machine to be lower than your bed a bit. Not the floor though. Hose will hang in an inverted V, each point is low, with the center point high to get humidity to drain back to the machine not your mask.

This inverted V won't get much ham radio signal, but it'll help control the wet mask.

The following are Humidity settings that have been tried and the results: ...
Am at a loss of what to try, maybe a different temp/style of machine?

I have been using a humidifier setting 6 with a hose temperature of 28C and a nasal mask. There is some condensation, but nothing major. When I installed a CPAP hose cover (i.e., a thermal insulator), which you can get for about ten bucks on Amazon, the condensation was reduced significantly. 
A piece of advice: The hose cover is slightly shorter than the hose. Ensure that the end of the tube that connects to the mask is not covered because it gives you more flexibility and fewer leaks.

Thank you, Are you using the tube heater, or is it off?  If yes, what tube temps are you using?

Thanks again

You are the second one to recommend a tube insulating sleeve......
 
Might need to do some online shopping !!!

Now you have three recommendations!

A fleece type hose cover will make a huge difference.

I'd have to look at the tube temp., but I believe I have it set around 80-82. You'll need to experiment.

I use a hose hanger that I bought on Amazon. I like using it because the hose never touches my body, and it can't get in my way.

Wanted to follow-up with everyone that suggested the tube cover/insulator.  Have received and installed an insulator for the tube on my CPAP machine.  PROBLEM solved, no more gurgling or water running out of the tube at 2:00AM.

A BIG Thank you for everyone's recomendation !!

Again I greatly appreciate everyone's help and replies.  What I am still disappointed about is why my local provider didn't seem to know about this problem or how easy the fix is... Their response was many of our patients use automatic mode.  If that does not work just try different settings until you find one that works for you...

Am now concerned that they may not be working in my best interest regarding monitoring daily events and making required adjustments that only they can change...
