resumed s 10 auto set, water chamber not heating - duffer54 - 06-06-2017
I recently noticed my water chamber is not using much water if any at all. I checked the metal plate on the bottom as soon as I wake up and it's not even warm. I have a 6 month old Resmed S10 Autoset with heated tubing and regular tubing, I have been using the non heated tubing with a setting of 4. Any thoughts?

What's the ambient humidity of your sleep area?

My A/C thermostat says 53%

You just answered your original question. Your humidity is high enough that the CPAP humidifier doesn't need to add much, if any, to your airstream.

Thanks for your reply, I kinda thought that might be the issue. I feel like I need a bit more, is there any adjustments I can make?

Increase the setting. You can get the A10 wet enough to flood the hose.
