AirSense 10 repair
I have an Air Sense 10 Autoset that I've had for about 3 1/2 years. The machine no longer heats my tubing, and it is damaging my SD cards, making use of OSCAR impossible. I'm not eligible for a new machine for over a year more. Are there any reliable repair places? I'm in Oregon. I suspect it's electronic failure, but can't be sure.

RE: AirSense 10 repair
I'm sorry your having problems with your machine. I do not know of a repair shop, I would think your supplier would be the place to call and inquire. Another way would be to buy a used one. Supplier #2 has some very good prices on used machines with a warranty. I bought one with 1 months use - great machine. Price for a used Resmed S10 Autoset is 389 and new open box 539. They come with new hoses (both regular and heated, humidifier, power, carry case... everything except a mask.
Then in a couple of years (its 5 years old) keep the one that does not work and get the insurance to get a new one. you would have a backup if anything happens to either one.

You can try Supplier #27 or Supplier #28. At least call them for an estimate.

RE: AirSense 10 repair
I had another thought I want to share. When I wanted a new machine I asked my supplier to get a new one. It was 5 years and 7 months old. I was told if my machine was working I had to wait for 7 years but if it was not working and FIXABLE I STILL could not get a new machine. So if you get your machine fixed and in a year and a half you try to get a new one you may not be able to. I'm sure it depends on your supplier but they told me it was medicare that had the restriction. So again, I bought used and in another year 1/2 I will try to get another through insurance to I will have a backup also.

Medicare is 5 years. I just got a new machine with NO problems--my sleep doc (a good guy) approved the Resmed For Her I asked for and no problems with a new DME (Norco) or getting it approved by Medicare.

RE: AirSense 10 repair
Thank you all for the quick replies. A used machine sounds like the perfect solution. I'll check with all three suppliers mentioned.
