Uncomfortable therapy due to a dry mouth can be one of the most discouraging side effects of using a CPAP machine. Humidification during therapy can help, but can also contribute to CPAP rainout.
You may be asking what is CPAP rainout? Isn’t rainout what ruins baseball games? When warm air cools in your tubing and eventually reaches your mask as water, your face becomes damp – which is known as rainout, and it’s the last thing you need when trying to get a comfortable night’s rest.
Which is why we developed the ClimateLineAir™ heated tube for Resmed Air10™ (which includes AirSense™ 10 and AirCurve™ 10) CPAP machines, a premium alternative to standard tubing. It was designed to keep the temperature of the humidified air constant as it travels through the tube to your mask.
