Description
Using a humidifier can help alleviate common side effects of CPAP therapy such as dryness and irritation in the nose and throat.
How to use ?
- To use the humidifier water chamber, you will need to remove it from the machine and fill it with distilled water up to the maximum fill line.
- It is important to use distilled water to prevent mineral buildup inside the chamber.
- Then, reattach the chamber to the machine and adjust the humidity level to your preferred setting.
- The DreamStation Humidifier has five adjustable heat settings to control the amount of moisture added to the air.
Benefits
