a funnelless way to fill humidifier with distilled water

Post by musante1 » Thu Mar 17, 2005 9:30 pm

with tubbing and a couple of drilled holes you can fill the humidifier with the flip of a switch no need for funnels no need to remove the tank from the machine

you don't need a funnel
with tubbing connected between water jug and humidifier all you do is tip the jug and fill when full put jug down and it stops no funnel no removing tank from machine. just tip the the jug and watch the fill line.

I use 1 of those transmission oil pumps with tubing attatched. Just stick it into the water bottle . 3 pumps and its full.

I would be concerned that it would affect pressure. Specially in an auto...

you don't have to worry about the pressures. there is water in the line all night, if pressure was a problem the water would be forced out of the clear 1/4" line

Ya gotta b nuts...Rigginn a "system" to fill the humidifier...Ya should wash the thing...a funnel is 39cents or 0.39 if you prefer. Perhaps u can open a cpap full service wash and fold service 2! Good luck and dont drown.
