Re: Disinfecting tank and hose

Dawn soap and hot water for the tank about once a month. About 2 X a week I squirt a little alcohol hand sanitizer in it and wipe it out with a baby wipe.
The long hose- just leave it alone. What do you think is in the air going through it?

Re: Travel Machine

If you decide to do Craigslist, I have a few tips- Meet at the library- quiet, have tables with electrical power. Take your own mask and long hose and give it a good trial. Or, take the hubs with you if you don't use a cpap. Make sure the run hours are what you think they are. Smoke free, pet free h...

Re: Travel Machine

Why does he want a "travel" machine? Are you looking for something smaller look at Resmed AirMini. If he wants a battery (for long flights and power outages) Phillips Dreamstation GO with battery. If he wants a smaller machine, the cheapest route would be use his Airsense 10 Auto with the side cover...

Re: Travel CPAPs?

I have the Dreamstation GO with battery. It works just a well as my Resmed Airsense 10 auto. The battery lasts 2 full 8 hour nights on a full charge. It is quiet, and has an optional humidifier. The other one I would suggest is the Resmed AirMini, but I don't know about its battery. The Airmini has ...

Re: Arghhh!!!! Brevida problem- am I alone?

Hi- those are my 2 fav. masks, the P10 and the Brevida. I switch back and forth. The P10 is more lightweight overall, which I like. The Brevida stays put on my head better since it is adjustable straps. Also, the Brevida makes my nose sweat a little because of the way it hugs the outside of my nose ...

Re: Better alternative to Swift FX Nano?

My original mask was the Swift FX Nano. I switched to the Resmed P10, and like it much better. The other one I like is the F&P Brevida. I also liked the Wisp nasal mask. You just have to try them out and see for yourself. www.cpap.com has return Insurance on masks if you want to try one and don't li...

Re: CPAP Friendly Hotels

I travel frequently with my cpap. I have 3 simple criteria for a hotel: CLEAN, QUIET, COMFORTABLE. I have common sense and arrive prepared.
