Humidity help please

Humidity help please
I have a resmed 10 vauto.. any suggestion on better humidity? When I turn the humidity up I get crazy rain out but having high humidity makes me comfortable and I actually keep the mask on . I turn the machine to auto climate and either I take the mask off or my mouth gets dry. I can’t control the temperature in the home I don’t live alone . I also get hot at night . Air in home usually runs 70
Degrees. I’m at my wit end with this . Tried different full face mask as well

RE: Humidity help please
Do you use a heated hose? Is there a hose cover and hose holder? The cover to insulate the hose, preventing some rainout, and the holder to allow the hose to be elevated into an inverted V allowing some moisture to drain back to the CPAP.

You may need all 3 items.
Mask Primer

Positional Apnea
