RE: ResMed heated humidifier tubing doesn't stay warm
Something to note, Max temperature is 86° F on ResMed heated hoses. It's less than body temperature by about 12.6°. Also I don't think the heating coils are heating the air so much, but keeping the hose wall warm enough to reduce condensation.
I myself had in the past felt like the hose heated for a bit but then cooled off. However the action of minimizing rainout still worked.
