Thanks man, from the US, I appreciate you helping take the drudgery out of cpap. They still aren't fun but at least a little better.

Great video! I love my Air Sense 11 so much. Got it one and a half year ago but should have had it since long ago. Probably since a kid.

Thank you for the tips! Love the alternate drying option 🎉

Thank you so much. You gave me a lot of helpful info.😊

Excellent. Thank You.

Another great tut, Nicko! THANK YOU! Another option for drying tube and mask is using the mask fit [test] setting, rather than turning it on and off. It gives a stronger air blast for a few minutes, before switching to the cool down mode.

LMAO - I love the end! That is exactly the way I drain and dry my CPAP tube. I do less Hip Thrusting and I always turn on Kylie Minogue "Can't get you out of my mind". Well done!

Just got mine today, thanks for the secrets

Most useful!

My partner and I (located in regional Australia) each purchased an Airsense 11 in Oct/Nov 2021 (his was a replacement for a Phillips, while I was just starting my CPAP adventure). The local supplier had a stack of them. Literally, they were literally stacked up. In our kits we each received the unit itself, the standard (white tab) humidity tank, heated hose, a mask, and a carry case. They didn't have filters for the 11, so gave us some for the 10 with instructions to cut to fit. There was no mention of a side panel or an alternative humidity tank. Thanks to your great video, my partner went back to our local supplier to ask about the grey tab humidity tank. The newer staff member there advised that the Airsense 11 has not yet been released. 😳

Loved that ending!! Brother DownUnder!!! 🤣🤣 Thanks for the video! From GG in the US!

Awesome. Do you have any suggestions for back up power for those using oxygen concentrator along with cpap therapy.

Another way of drying your hose is putting it in a washing machine but only on the Soin cycle. I line the drum with a couple of bath towels to prevent the heated tube from being damaged by the impeller. Depending on your washer ionly have it on l low to normal but only about 20 seconds. This is pretty crucial. I've been using my CPAP machine but I've noticed a couple of things: 1) if you use the prewarm water feature and bump the hose, you may get an error saying the climate hose prewarm. The only way I could clear the error and reinvoke the prewarm cycle was to unplug it for about 30 seconds. 2). Very handy about knowing about airplane. At my CPAP dealer they didn't give me an SD card and access my machine over the cellular network. Can I use any 32 mgb or larger SD card? Thanks and enjoy watching your videos.

this is very helpful thank you!! i'm trialling one of these this week and when i picked up from about sleep they didn't show me any of these things!

Did not know about that last one. Here I've been trying to trick it into drying the hose out using the mask fit test feature.

Awesome. Found your channel recently after being diagnosed and was issued an AirSense 11. Great content.

Thanks Nick. Regarding the last tip for drying out the tube, I've been using the "Mask Fit" function and leaving it on for about 5 mins to dry out the tubing. Do you think that is bad for the machine to blow hard like that for a sustained period of time?

I just got my new machine two days ago. Been using a 10 for many years. You mentioned the SD car having a lot of information. Can I read that on my Mac or do I need a special machine? I've been watching your videos and have learned more in two days than I've learned in 10 years about CPAP machines. Thanks a lot.

Great video. When I'm traveling can I put normal filtered water the first night in my ResMed Airsense 11 until I find a market? Thanks

Love the feature on the Airsense 11 that dries the hose with gentle air. No need to buy a separate hose dryer.

Excellent information. Highly appreciated. Would it be possible to assist in getting into the Tools / Service section of the BMC REsmart GII Auto. I need to see if I can recalibrate the blower motor, but the Service section requires a pass code. Getting ERROR 75 (Blower not starting) Do you perhaps have this for the BMC REsmart GII Auto? Regards

Can you share link to the c-usb cable please. Is there one on Amazon?

Hi Nick I have tore down my wife's ResMed air sense 10 and was wondering if you know where to get the small cable that connects the two circuit boards (4 wire press on type)

Hi, thank you for this useful video. At 2:10 you state that part 39101 does not require the use of distilled water. However when I read online and on the rasmed website it states that you must always use distilled water even with the chamber above. Can you point to me where it says that you don't need to use distilled water with the 39101 water chamber?

Is the USB-c adapter for made by Resmed? I love the idea of having the option but I’m worried about using a aftermarket power source.

Without the humidifier and with the cover installed in place of the tank, Because it's the same turbine, it will become as loud as the Airmini when you breath. (Loud at the mask level as the sound of the turbine travels through the air in the tube) The humidifier tank acts like a muffler because if the cavity/baffles it adds to the path of the air.

Hey Nick, Everyone seems so intent on getting all their equipment dry before use, but I just don't see the point. I know others may have a different routine, but I generally wash my stuff on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon and then use it in the evening. As soon as I use it, it's going to get wet anyway. Do you really think there's a need for all this drying?

That climate control tube is nice not gonna lie .....I do alot of camping when it's very cold and that climate tube is amazing lol I have on multiple occasions just used it in my sleeping bag on the highest pressure setting to try and warm myself up a bit ......I do use a big eco flow powerbank incase anyone would wonder

Doing an import into SleepHQ for an AS10 Redmed CPAP. I notice the Redmed labelled SD card is 4GB, how many years of saving to the SD card? I.e. Machine from 2017. Getting a Resmed AS11 this afternoon and a new mask. I have had the same mask since 2017, LoL

I have a humidification chamber with a white tab for distilled water only. Can I replace it with a gray tab or does it require a different cpap model? Appreciate the videos!

Half of the water is left over from the night before can I add water to it or should I remove last night water and put in new water

**Better tip for brightening the screen** Open literally ANY app (doesn’t matter which one) that has a white background. Simply set the iPhone (white screen down) on top of the light sensor and instantly watch the display of the AirSense 11 get super bright. (No need to use the flashlight feature of your phone, as that’s too much for what’s needed). Now you have to,hand to conduct your business with the machine. When you’re done, simply remove the iPhone from the top of the cpap. Easy.

I am a new cpap user. You commented on another video that people were complaining that on the airsense 11 the water tank was hard to remove. I have a new air sense 11 and it is not hard to remove at all. Three times in the past month I have gotten a message that the humidifier was not working. I assume this could be because the tank is not seating securely. I am not sure what I should do.

Have you or are you going to run the test that shows how accurate it is? I know you did the AS10 in one of your vids and it sucked. Is this one that much better?

Now this videos definitely informative man there's a lot of garbage out there thanks brother from the land down under!

Great video but my machine keeps saying air leak after 3 water tanks 3 hoses changed it's POS.

I woke up this morning and both my machine and app’s report gave me a total use time of 10 minutes, but it said that was for tonight, not last night’s sleep. I did sleep until 11:10AM, so I’m wondering if there’s a cut off time when your machine stops logging time for last night’s sleep and starts to credit your sleep time to to the following nighr’s? Also concerned that the calendar is thrown off, and when I wake up tomorrow, it will do the same thing. Any thoughts?

I have question, I watched another cpap KZfaq producer discuss something called a v-com for people that have air leakage from the mouths frequently. My Dad and I both use a cpap but he has periodic mouth leakage. So I was considering getting him the V-COM But after watching your videos it occurred to me that maybe the v-com would actually give the cpap false readings or would at least deeply muddle the data recorded ... thoughts? The second concern I had after watching your videos was something my mom said about Dad's sleep... that things would be going nicely (sleep wise for my dad) but then he would stop breathing and then gasp and have an air leak from his mouth... seemed a lot like that guy you reviewed who had these periodic central apneas. My cpap is monitored by my doctor but my dad's is not 😞 I need to get him in to see my sleep doctor and get him a new machine maybe a respro airsense elite which captures a lot of data and figure out if his apnea is actually being treated. He had a sleep study done a long long time ago and his current cpap is something he bought online but I'm gonna get him to my sleep doctor, get him a new machine and get him a pulse ox ring What was the kind of machine for people with the weird sleep breathing rhythms? Thanks for your videos it's been very enlightening and scary (in a good way)!

I got the Airsence 11 few month ago. I set the humidity to Auto and the heated hose to Max 30. It is too dry. I changed it to manual and set the humidity to 6. Heavy Condensation formed in the heated tube. I lowered it to 5 and still condensation is formed. Then, I lowered it to 4. It get too dry and i cough and cannot sleep. I replaced the heated hose and still the same problem. I have the S9 and humidity set to Max 6 and heated hose Max 30 and I had NO problem with condensation. Do you have an advise to me what to do?. Thank you from Toronto, Canada.

I have a 5year old ten about to change it, question is, upgrade to 11 or get another 10. Money not the issue. Which way to go?

I am traveling to Mexico. Want to use the side, how do I turn off heater plate?

I was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea through the VA hospital here in the US. I started therapy almost 2 weeks ago and I cannot get used to this thing. The longest I have worn my mask is just shy of 2 hours before ripping it off. On average I wear it for around 30 minutes before I take it off. I don't know how any of you can do this. Currently I get better sleep with sleep apnea than doing the therapy. Haha!

Can you explain what the difference is between the 2 water tubs? I see that one is labeled "Cleanable" which doesn't explain much.

Tried looking through videos but do you have a rec for my 1 armed, elderly mother. She had a stroke so is unable to use her left arm and struggles constantly trying to get any mask on or untangled. To complicate, the stroke also effect her memory so its harder for her to learn more complicated multi-step tasks.

New to this machine. How do you turn off the the heater plate?

What do you think of the price point they put this at? Its not much cheaper than the creme de la creme lowenstein 20A

How do you turn off heater plate?

I need to filter out cigarette smoke.....is there an activated carbon filter or some hack for this?

I had no idea how to remove that inner piece until now. I’m afraid to take it out coz it’s never been cleaned.. 😳

The sh*t you can learn here. Thanks, dude!

Hey mate ! I have the Airsense 11; and I changed it to the auto woman mode . I am sleeping better; however the ramp is too long and too low; I feel like I’m struggling to breathe and I start to panic; any advice?

Just stumbled upon your channel trying to reduce my sleep ap machine pressure apparently its retracting my ear drums! Anyway your channel makes me feel a little less alone. I got diagnosed with severe sleep apnea at 19 and had to buy a machine. Im fit and healthy etc but its probably genetics. Im really embarrassed I have it at such a young age and have cried a lot about it. Thanks for creating a space where i feel comfortable to share my experience ❤

Hey Nicko, quick question should i buy the autoset version or the elite one?

Do the side cover come seperately? Mine didn't come with it.

Why can't i connect my Airsense 11 with MyAir app? It says my region(Aus) not supported

End cap?

Where do I buy the side cover?

Why would someone not use the humidifier? It’s not explained.

I'm brand new to the world of CPAPs. I was just diagnosed with sleep apnea. 😢 I think I've already found a great place for info once I get going! 🙂 👍😃

You kill me! 😂😂😂 (USA fan). How do you pre-heat the water chamber?

That's how I dry mine. LOL

Thank you for these helpful hints. I have been using this machine for some times now.This machine has many inconveniences.. especially with the humidifier.. It consumes lots of water, even if you turn the humidifier to zero.. it still consumes water. As well the humidifier is tough to open. The worst part, the tube makes noises (the heated one or not). If you use the heated one then you have to ensure that the level of heating temperature corresponds to the room temperature. These noises disturb my wife... I am still working on removing these noises and may switch back to the non humidifier option. I also do not understand why they dont supply the non distilled water humidifier at purchase time. I have all of these options but I have not found out the correct solution. As well why dont they publish all of these information in the user's manual? Bottom line, I do not like this Aisense and wishes that my Dreamstation could be replaced. I do not recommend that CPAP.

App does not work

Yeah because side cover everyone has

You were telling people the Airsense 11 wasn't worth it a few videos back, now you're riding it hard XD what's going on bud?

🎉😂🎉

I hate mine. My S10 was sooooooo much quieter.

Hello for the USA. My Air Curve 10 took a dump recently. After that, I went into rehab for a knee problem. The people here said that I should still use something, and they gave me an Air Sence 11 to use while I am here. They set it up for apap, and I HATE IT. I was very used to bi-level, and apap doesn't work anything like bipap. I feel like it's a constant struggle to breathe, so I turned it off. That's all I have to say about it. Thank you for your channel. 👩‍🦳
