Post Got My machine today - 
Hi,
I got my machine today and its one of the adjustable pressure machines. The tech really wasn't up to speed on it.
It came with a diary  to fill out on a daily basis. No one instructed me to do this, should I plan on doing this?

I will be using a full face mask (they didn't have the mask today) and the machine instructions say to disconnect and hang the hose every morning. What is the purpose of this?

Thanks
Alan

Hi Alan,

The purpose of hanging the hose up is to drain it and dry it out if you use a humifier.  Welcome to the hosehead club!!  I assume the diary is for you to record how you are feeling so that you and your doctor can follow your progress and make sure everything is coming along as it should.  Not a bad idea.

Vicki
