The AirSense 11 Humidifier is not working
It’s recommended to refill your heated humidifier tank every two to three days. If you notice that the water level doesn’t decrease within this time frame, you may need to adjust the temperature and humidity settings. However, if the water level remains unchanged, it’s possible that the humidifier is not working properly and the hot plate underneath the water chamber may not be heating up. If such is the case, then you should either contact the distributor for repair, or purchase a new humidifier.

My AirSense 11 is not working. What should I do?
If you’re facing issues with your Airsense 11 CPAP machine, it can be frustrating and affect the quality of your sleep therapy. However, there are several steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem before seeking professional assistance. Follow the troubleshooting steps below to get your Airsense 11 CPAP working again:
- Check power supply: Ensure that the power cord is properly connected to both the CPAP machine and the power outlet. Confirm that the outlet is functioning correctly by plugging in another device.
- Reset the device: Sometimes a simple reset can fix minor issues. Disconnect the power supply, remove the water chamber, and detach the mask. Wait for at least 30 seconds, then reconnect everything and power it on again.
- Check for error messages: If your CPAP machine displays an error message or code, consult the user manual or the manufacturer’s website to understand its meaning and follow the recommended troubleshooting steps.
- Clean and inspect the components: Regular cleaning and maintenance are crucial for proper CPAP functioning. Remove the water chamber, mask, and tubing. Wash them with mild soap and warm water, then rinse and allow them to air dry completely. Inspect all components for any signs of damage or wear.
- Replace consumables: Certain components of the CPAP machine require periodic replacement. Check the air filter and humidifier chamber for clogs, damage, or discoloration. Replace these components if necessary, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Check for leaks: Ensure that the mask is properly fitted and there are no air leaks. Adjust the straps as needed and try different mask sizes or styles if leaks persist. A poorly fitting mask can cause discomfort and disrupt therapy.
