Dry Mouth

Dry Mouth
I have been using my machine little over a month now. I not a big fan of the heat  so I have it turned down along with the humidity to A 2 but I notice I get dry mouth a lot more since I have done this. Should I turn humidity back up?

RE: Dry Mouth
To fix the dry mouth you would turn up the heat.

For auto-cpap, from machine data or software. You can set the min pressure 1 or 2cm below 95%. Or clinicians commonly use the maximum or 95% pressure for fixed pressure CPAP, this can also be used for min pressure.

RE: Dry Mouth
if you get the 10 foot hose the air is cold even with the humidity turned to 5.
i had the 6 foot hose but it was to short so i got a 10 foot one and first thing i noticed was
the cold air, did not think about it cooling the air.
