use of room humidifier

use of room humidifier
I have not used a room humidifier yet my room is moist and cool -  I have adjusted the humidification on my airsense 11 but to no avail.  Has anyone with dry nasal passages and breathing issues through the nose found relief with a room humidifier?  Does it also help with dry mouth symptoms?

RE: use of room humidifier
A room humidifier may help some. Dry mouth indicates mouth breathing. It'll get dry even with the full face mask. Take a look at xylimelts, Walmart, CVS, etc. should have them in stock. These might be helpful.

Have you tried a heated hose? The thing is, a CPAP machine measures the ambient humidity and adjusts accordingly. So if you humidify your bedroom the CPAP machine will automatically lower the humidity it provides.
