If you struggle with dry throat or nasal passages after a night of CPAP therapy, you may want to consider adding humidification to your routine. With the ResMed AirSense 10 integrated humidifier, adding humification is as simple as filling this water chamber and connecting it to the machine. How Much Water Does the ResMed AirSense™ 10 Humidifier Water Chamber Hold? The ResMed AirSense™ 10 Humidifier Water Chamber has a water capacity of 380 mL, so you should never have to refill during the night. If you find that you run out of water in the middle of your therapy, humidification settings may need to be adjusted. These can be accessed through the “My Options” menu on your ResMed AirSense 10. If water remains in the chamber following a night of CPAP therapy, remove it and rinse the chamber thoroughly before refilling and beginning therapy again.Keep Your AirSense 10 CPAP Water Chamber Clean A clean water chamber is important when using humidification for CPAP. If not properly maintained, water chambers can collect bacteria, germs, and mold which can infect the lungs and cause sickness. Daily removal of water and rinsing of the chamber is recommended after therapy. Once per week, wash the water chamber with warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse excess water and let air dry prior to reattaching to your CPAP machine. Please note this water chamber is not dishwasher safe. The ResMed AirSense 10 water chamber should be washed with warm water and mild detergent by hand on a weekly basis. It should be allowed to dry completely, out of direct sunlight and/or heat.
