Comment on Respironics M Series Heated Humidifier Review-almost by Brian

I believe you don’t want to put it on carpet, as the unit might tilt and cause water to drain into the unit. You just need a stable base and you’ll be fine.

As for cleaning, I really don’t clean mine but every few weeks and I’ve never had any problems with bacteria or mold. Medical companies just say that to cover themselves in the case of lawsuits. I just rinse mine out each day before refilling it.

Great to hear! CPAP has definitely improved the quality of my sleep and I hope you will be able to reap the benefits too. My doctor also told me that losing weight wouldn’t hurt, so it’s possible that after you’ve lost so much weight you don’t even need CPAP anymore. If you have some time you might want to take that sleep apnea test again to see if CPAP therapy is still required. (I go to Kaiser Permanente where there is a sleep lab that administers a take home test for sleep apnea) I only have “mild” sleep apnea but I use my CPAP machine every night.

Thank you! I can’t get into the doctor for a month and after losing 50 pounds sleeping with my CPAP at 9 was almost as bad as sleeping without it. I did not hear any beeps and the first display I saw was the pressure, which I was able to change with the + and – buttons. There was also a little “opened lock” icon so I knew the device was unlocked. I then turned my CPAP off and on and presto! New pressure. Thank you so much!

Thanks for publishing the combination to the RemStar “safe.” I have been using a CPAP for 8 years, and I have always found it necessary to be able to adjust the settings on my own.

Just picked up a new RemStar M series with A-Flex today, and wanted to be sure I could make adjustments if necessary.

Is there a process to exit the setup mode? On my old RemStar Plus, if you didn’t exit the setup, it just continued going around and around . . . kind of like the energizer bunny.

Thanks again.

Hi Thomas,

I would definitely check with your medical provider since they will be able to make the proper adjustments to your cpap machine for you and they shouldn’t charge you. After all they provided the prescription so they should set up your machine.

Also I noticed that the Remstar M Series, model 1022334 is the unit with the heated humidifier. Can you separate the humidifier from the CPAP unit itself? If so then you can try separating the two pieces and then following the instructions above. Not sure if it will work but it’s worth a shot.

I have a Remstar M Series, model 1022334. I tried your instructions as you outlined. Unfortunately, they don’t work. It just turns the machine on.
