yes I have the cpap humidifier and its set at 5.....I hate to set it any higher b/c it already runs out of water in 5 or 6 hours....during the winter when room is so dry, I have an older cold mist one that I do still run and when its on my cpap doesn't run out of water before I wake..... gosh thats ...

can you tell me HOW to search this forum.....you said to search for 6 gal. ones that people are using....how do I do that?

thank you all for the in-depth replies, seems there are draw backs to all of them...I use way too much water to even consider using distilled, it will need to be house water supply which is also hard, but doesn't eat my pipes at least..lol I don't like the thoughts of that fine dust clogging up my c...

I am wondering if this one is a good purchase or not???

I drastically need a new room humidifier for my bedroom....(not the cpap one)...my house is so dry. Does anyone have recommendations on what type to get?

I had the same trouble, tried lining the part of the mask that comes in contact with my skin with various suggestions and had some relief...than ordered Karens liner for full face masks from padacheek and I am EXTREMELY HAPPY with how well they work, not only has this product stopped all the irritat...

thank you all for the very good comments....I was wondering if the pad a cheek full liner would fit the F&P Simplus mask? I've sent an email asking. I seem to be having trouble not only with the bridge of my nose now but also all around where the seal fits my face:(....wake up very red and it takes...

I went to VitalAire in Calgary. They have their receptionist setting people up on CPAP in Calgary. Very poor care for the dollars you;re spending. I just had some clerk in Quebec. I spent 15 of the 25 minutes filling out forms and doing the payments stuff and 10 minutes for going over the cpap and ...

I have been using the Simplus for 2 weeks now, for me it seems to fit very well however......I do get redness and soreness on the bridge of my nose, that is managed with a light strip of cloth and taped on with paper tape... But the last few nights I have been also getting alot of redness everywhere...

I too use the 'paper tape' to help with redness/soreness on the bridge of my nose. but this last couple of days I have been waking up with alot of redness all around my face where the FF mask fits...anyone else? its so red that even by evening it still hasn't disappeared. this morning it even looks ...

I trialed the Simplus mask all last week and I really liked it alot...but than the only other one I got to trial was the Quattro FX and really didn't like that one. the Simplus is very comfortable to wear, I ended up buying it. I find the headgear much softer and stronger than the other one also it ...

I am only on week three of this cpap business. first 2 weeks were a trial, than I had to purchase my own machine. during the trial period I was given a Quattro FX, I didn't like the fit of it especially over the ear area and got lots of leaks especially during the middle of my sleep period.... this ...

Just to clarify....I am a Saskatchewan resident, and its here in Saskatchewan that the wait is 18+ months for a sleep lab study..so my doctor told me anyway. but transparently if you have one of these study's the gov. of Sk will pay for the cpap unit...if you can't wait like me than you pay out of p...
