Slim or Standard Hose on Airsense - theMezz - 06-19-2018

I have a Resmed airsense 10 and noticed the setting are for a slim hose.

How do I know what hose I have? I only saw one in my life and have nothing to compare it to

The SlimLine™ is noticeably smaller (in diameter). It's unlikely you have one. To be certain, you can go online and look at pictures of the SlimLine™ and see if it's the same as yours. If you were given the AirSense with a SlimLine™ hose (ResMed calls it tubing, with good reason, but to me it's a hose) and your provider did not change the setting, shame on them!

Standard tubing is 22 mm, Slimline is 15 mm. Climateline is what you want, and it sets automatically when detected. Smile

I do have Climateline
I noticed in the settings I have a choice of slim or standard
It's on slim, but I wonder if that is correct?

As I said, Climateline tubing is automatically detected and there is nothing to set. Slimline and Standard are shown as options, but they are ignored when the Climateline is attached.
