DreamStation Heated Tube
Provides air temperature control that allows users to select their preferred humidification level and helps prevent rainout or condensation. This 6ft in length with a 15mm inner diameter is compatible with any CPAP mask.
The tube heating setting is 0 - 5, 5 is the highest level.
This is the replacement heated tube for Respironics DreamStation CPAP and DreamStation 2 Auto CPAP. It is also compatible with System One 60 Series machines.

Why do you need a heated CPAP hose?
The main reason for a heated hose is to avoid moisture build-up in the CPAP tube.
If you use a fan at night or if your bed is near a window, sometimes the moisture from the humidifier can condense and pool in the hose before it gets to your airway.
When this happens, it can wake you up by creating a loud popping sound as the air blows past the water, and in some cases can cause what we refer to as "rain out" where the water starts to splash onto your face or pour into your nose.
The heated hose insulates the air from the cooler temperatures in your room to avoid this.
You can also adjust the heat in the hose for your comfort making this a great option for the standard hose!

Subject: Heated hose
My new heated hose works very well. Fast shipping.
I am replacing my current Nuance Pro Gel Pillows Mask, W/ HGR, DOM, Respironics Catalog (RER) # 1105167 with DreamWear Silicone Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask by Philips - 2021 version, But it appears there is no extra 17" Hose that I can use between the Heated Hose and the point where the headgear connects. Please let me know soonest what you find. Thank you!
