Condensation
#11
RE: Condensation
The point we are trying to make is if you get the mouth leaks under control, you will probably be able to be able to reduce your humidity levels enough to eliminate the rainout you are experiencing and you will be a whole lot more comfortable. The tongue suck technique may work for you. If not, you may need a chin strap. They are available on Amazon at a reasonable price. For a simple chin strap, I prefer an adjustable Ruby style.

RE: Condensation
Appreciate all the suggestions.

I will change the climate control settings back to auto (default temperature at 27 C, humidity at 4) and set the machine lower than my mattress.

Also, will try the tongue suck technique and look into buying a hose cover and chin strap.

Bought Biotene mouth spray today for dry mouth relief.

Hopefully, the changes will fix both problems.
