Humidifier leak - dianewoodard53 - 08-20-2017

I have a Resmed AirSense 10 CPAP machine.  I recently purchased a SoClean machine and set it up to work with the CPAP. We left on vacation and I thought I had changed out the SoClean components/adaptords but apparently forgot the humidifier seal.  So hear I am in the middle of no where with a machine that says "high leak detected. check seal".  What can I do?  Is there any way to use the machine without the humidifier?  I have severe Apnea and desperately need the machine.
  Thanks

You have to remove seals on the A10 in order to use the Soclean?

Curious. I have a relative that purchased the soclean and uses it with an A10.

Thank you,

Hi dianewoodard53,
WELCOME! to the forum.!
Hang in there for answers to your question.
Good luck to you with CPAP therapy and getting your problem resolved.

Unless I'm mistaken, ResMed A10 units need a blocker plate (for lack of a better name) if you're not able to use the humidifier. IMO it's due to it being a built-in humidifier vs example of PR DreamStation integrated 2 piece design.
