The water pot on my new Airsense 11 runs dry after 6 or 7 hours. My air pressure setting is 10. The humidy setting is 5, and the humidity in my bedroom is currently 65. Heated tube setting is 78 degrees. I don't understand how the company's Product Development could have approved a water pot mistake like this.

The excess water is going out through your MOUTH.
The problem is not design--it is the organism attached to the mask.

That's an unhealthy, high level. Do you even need the added humidity of a CPAP humidifier?

I am experiencing the same thing. I never used more than half a tank with the Resmed10. Now on both Auto/Auto and Humidity 4 and Temp 84 am running out of water if I sleep 7 or more hours. When this happens, I awaken to a smell of burning metal or wire. This is concerning ... maybe the thing can catch fire. My provider rep even told me that the tank is only good for 6 hours and that one is supposed to wake up in the middle of the night to fill it. Are they crazy? Why does the 11 need to use so much more water than the 10 anyways. Like the user below who is returning to his cancer causing Phillips, I may have to return to my Resmed 10 with its leaky water tank. And if with the leak, it still had water in the tank at the end of the night!

I had to return my AirSense 11 for an AisSense 10 due to the smell and taste of burning electrical insulation from the 11. (humidty not activated) Others have had the same problem with the 11. I thought there may have been a recall on the offending 11s.
