Need longer hose for Airsense 11 - Jasper.1 - 03-19-2022
I can't seem to find an 8ft 15mm hose for the A11. Is it possible to use the standard 22mm hose instead? Or would that be a bad thing? If so, recommendationa on where to buy longer slimline hose? Thanks!

I doubt you would be able to find a longer slimline tube for the AirSense 11, but you can probably get a longer standard tube. All hoses/tubes have a 22mm rubber end and they are compatible with most makes and models of cpaps. (Exception would be heated hoses.)
Check Supplier #10. I believe they sell the standing tubing up to 10'.

The 3-meter hose is the longest that I know of. I got mine from Amazon and is the standard 19 mm diameter. Being a little larger in diameter slows the air velocity that makes it seem quieter as opposed to a 15 mm SlimLine hose. The AS10 has a 3-meter setting in the hose selection menu. I don't know if this was carried over to the AS11.

Thank you folks for responding. Really helpful to know that slimline hose is not necessary. It is louder for sure.
