How to clean a Resmed autoset 2 water chamber?

Hello Everyone,

I have a Resmed autoset II with humidifier, and ever though I utilise distilled h2o only, information technology has accumulated a night residue on the bottom of the floor of the chamber. The hole is too small to stick anything through, but if I accept a q-tip, I can write my proper name in the bottom of the bedchamber in the balance.

Can anyone tell me how to clean the sleeping room?

Thanks

Hmmmm. I've never had ane get yuck like that!!! However, drop a PoliDent Denture cleansing tablet into the tank, make full it west/warm water and let that tablet clean away. Give it 10-xv minutes to work, milk shake well and empty, rinse well w/a vinegar and h2o rinse.

Try some coke (just kidding) although that volition clean anything merely probably won't exercise it any practiced.

If it's the kind of scale that y'all see building upwards inside a kettle then you could effort a kettle descaler. I've never seen a dark residue though before.

Cheers
Dave

Quoting from the ResMed User H4i guide, to use: a solution of one part vinegar to 10 parts water.
i) Fill xanthous cleaning plug (comes with the humidifier,looks like a flat plastic dish) that you fill with to the rim with vinegar and cascade into empty water bedchamber.
2) Add clean water to the water chamber until the solution reaches the maximum water level mark.
3) Let the solution soak for 10 minutes.
4) Discard the solution and rinse the water bedroom with clean water.

Hope it cleans the dark remainder in your humidifier chamber.

I cleaned mine by poking a CPAP cleaning wipe into it; shaking it all around and then pulling the wipe out with a tweezer. If the stuff on the bottom is pink then information technology could be a leaner and you lot should clean it more than ofttimes.

Hot water, a PoliDent Denture Cleansing tablet, soaking, a skilful shake, rinse w/vinegar & water mixture, rinse, empty, shake to get all possible water out, permit to dry.

During the mean solar day, pop the superlative of the humidifier to let further drying thru out the mean solar day. If my PAP and humidifier are non beingness used the humidifier top is popped and immune to set open until I'm set to use them again.

I institute that poking a paper towel down into it and so filling it with water and swishing it effectually helps alot.

I just did the paper towel method with half full of hot soapy h2o and lots of swishing. I pulled out the towel and rinsed. Then I noticed the way the metal bottom was notched into tabs. I looked closer and noticed the plastic hinge holder on the other side. I pushed these plastic tabs and the whole metallic bottom comes out for easy cleaning access to everything. This is a Res Med Autoset Ii water chamber. Has anyone else noticed this?

I believe there are two different humidifier designs for the ResMed S8 machines, 1 much more easy to clean. At that place is an upgrade path to the easy clean version.

At that place's the "H3i" humidifier which doesn't have a "dishwasher safe" chamber option, but the H4i model has an optional "dishwasher condom" tank. The option H4i dishwasher safe tank is the one that's easier to clean.

You can convert an H3i humidifier to use the H4i chambers with this adapter.

I think you still need to lodge the optional H4i dishwasher safe tank to become the piece of cake clean tank.

At to the lowest degree, that'south the style I think it works. I never had an S8 myself.
