If the machine still doesn t work after disengaging the humidifier there is some other reason it s not working.

If the device is working correctly and the noise still bothers you try wearing earplugs or using a white noise sound machine to mask the noise.
Make sure the electric plugs to the wall and to the machine are firmly in place.
When plugged in most cpap machines can be turned on with the push of a button.
Otherwise make an appointment to bring your machine in to be evaluated by your cpap supplier.
As is the case for other machines your cpap machine needs electricity.
Check your electric outlet to make sure it is working.
The last time a few months back it was 7 0 again however the doctor did raise it 8 0 after the last study and the raise to 8 0 i am still just as tired as before and with or without the machine i am tired when i wake up.

If this doesn t help have your doctor or cpap supplier check the device to ensure it s working properly.
Along with taking osa treatment try maintaining healthy habits.
