[Symptoms] Headache Chestpain and Leaks
#11
RE: Headache Chestpain and Leaks
To see your breathing you need to zoom into the flow chart. To do that (there are several ways) click on the area you want to look at ( click in the flow chat). Then press the up button and hold it down. That zooms you in.  The down button zooms out and you can move left or right wth those buttons. When you get the area you want use F12 and post.

What mask are you using? Profile shows N20, Oscar shows Full Face. Moisture in the mask is not so dependent on your humidity setting, as there is plenty of warm moist air in what you exhale. The condensation is caused by cooler temperatures in the room causing the mask surface to be cool and moisture to condense. I think you can use your humidifier normally and either warm up the room a bit, or take a look at Supplier #31 for a mask cover to insulate against the cold. Therapy is near-perfect. Good job!
