About the heated tubing

The ClimateLineAir 11 is a heated breathing tube that delivers air to a compatible mask. When used with
the device humidifier tub, ClimateLineAir 11 heated air tubing allows you to use the Climate Control
feature.
Note: Not all types of air tubing are available in all regions.
Climate Control
Climate Control is designed to make therapy more comfortable by enabling constant temperature and
maintaining humidity.
This feature:
•
delivers comfortable humidity level and temperature during therapy
•
maintains the set temperature and relative humidity during sleep to prevent dryness in the nose and
mouth
•
can be set to either Auto or Manual
•
is only available when both the ClimateLineAir 11 and HumidAir 11 tub are attached.
Climate Control - Auto setting
Auto is the recommended and default setting. It is designed to make therapy as easy as possible so there
is no need to change the temperature or humidity settings.
•
Sets the tube temperature to Auto (80ºF/27ºC). If the air in the mask is too warm or too cold, you can
adjust the tube temperature to anywhere from 60 to 86ºF (16 to 30ºC) or turn it off completely
•
Adjusts the humidifier output to maintain a constant, comfortable humidity level of 85% relative
humidity
•
Protects against rainout (water droplets in the heated air tubing and mask).
Climate Control - Manual setting
Manual is designed to offer more flexibility and control over settings and offers the following:
•
Temperature and humidity can be adjusted to find the most comfortable setting
•
Temperature and humidity level can be set independently
• Rainout protection is not guaranteed. If rainout does occur, first try increasing the tube temperature
• If the air temperature becomes too warm and rainout continues, try decreasing the humidity.
Note: If Climate Control is set to Manual, the Auto Tube Temperature setting is not available.
Humidity Level
The humidifier moistens the air and is designed to make therapy more comfortable.
•
If you are getting a dry nose or mouth, turn up the humidity
•
If you are getting any moisture in your mask, turn down the humidity.
• You can set the Humidity Level to Off or between 1 and 8, where 1 is the lowest humidity setting, and
8 is the highest humidity setting.
