Airsense Noise Levels - Surfbear - 02-28-2021

I'm currently testing an Airsense 10 Auto machine to replace a 4 year old
Dreamstation. It has a lot of nice features but starts producing a higher
pitched noise at times after it's been on for awhile.

I set a phone next to my machine during 'normal' breathing sound operation. Is this pretty normal (youtube sound file uploaded..)?

My old dreamstation is definitely quieter. I was looking to step into a new Airsense 10 Auto machine after seeing a lot of positive reviews, but am debating the switch now.

Mine is so quiet that my wife kept waking me up to make sure I was still breathing.

Your wife checks if you're alive at night? How much are you worth?

Sounds like the machine you are testing is a noisy one.  Generally, they should be very quiet.  .  Maybe the unit is a lemon, or it was dropped - but it shouldn't whine or sound like that.  My recommendation is to return that one and evaluate the same model, but a different serial number (different unit).  These sounds usually don't get better with age.  It's also easier to sleep without that sound next to you...

Take it back and get another one!

Thanks for the replies!

I had the SoClean 2 attached to my ResMed 10 and it produced a high pitched sound. Just an fyi if you do decide to go that route. Returned Smile

This topic just made me realize that I need to get mine exchanged as well. It sounds exactly the same and I thought that this was normal.
