Tubes still wet from cleaning, can I use them? - hejohoo - 08-28-2023

I cleaned the tube for the first time today that goes from my CPAP machine (Resmed Airsense10) and mask tube. That was 10 hours ago and there is still dropplets of water in the tubes so I am not sure they will be completely dry before night.

Can I still use them even if there is some drops of water inside? 

I mean I don't know if there is a faster way to make them dry than just hanging them over something so are one supposed to have a spare pare?

Or is it ok to use them even if they are not completely dry?

I have never had a problem with using tubes or masks that were still a bit wet.
Sometimes I hook everything back up and let it run flat out on the mask fit test.

yeah, of course you can use them. The only issue is they might disturb you if they push the water onto your face. I usually just plug my tubes and mask in after cleaning, then turn it on and walk away for 20 minutes or so. Hope this helps!
