RE: Changed to finer filter and gott egg smell??
Did your humidifier tank still have water the next day?

Was the filter clogged and the machine have to work too hard and burned some rubber inside?

I have a different brand, but when I got a foul smell, it was acrid and plastic smelling and it was because my humidifier ran out of water. I called ResMed and they said not to worry, that it was from leakage and try not to let it happen again. (I had a smaller mask at the time).

I have had that happen more than once and it is not very pleasant. I think what ResMed told you was just fluff. I definitely agree with trying not to let it happen again. Since I have become careful of that, I have not gotten the fumes again.
