The MaxMed Heat Moisture Exchange filter (HME) for CPAP machines is designed to provide passive humidification during CPAP therapy. The HME filter is attached to a mask elbow in order to take in heat and moisture from the user’s exhaled breath. The moisture is then returned into the air stream for inhalation to help prevent dryness at the lungs. MASK: When selecting a mask, the MaxMed HME filter for CPAP machines will not work with masks that have a short tube extended from the mask frame. The HME filter must be very close to the moisture of exhale air to function properly. It must be connected to a mask with a simple elbow in order to give optimal results. CLEANING: The MaxMed HME cannot be cleaned. Originally, the manufacturer found the HME to be suitable only for one night’s use. After further research and testing, the device has been approved for up to seven (7) night’s usage. The MaxMed HME filter is manufactured in the USA and compatible with all CPAP, APAP, or BiPAP machines.

For CPAP humidity.
Often difficult to find distilled water while traveling internationally. This worked to substitute for distilled water for humidity. The machine did get hot by morning. It was unfortunate to dispose of these plastic devices every three days.

Good quality at a reasonable price
I use my Z2 CPAP any time I'm camping or traveling. It gets a lot of use, but it painfully dries my nasal passages out when using it. These HHE moisture filters help a lot in preventing this drying condition. They work best with a mask where the HHE filter connects very close to your nose and mouth.

They fit on my travel cpap and they work
After having to buy distilled water on every travel trip to use it with my cpap, I learned that this new product is the replacement. No more distilled water. Just buy this little product and put it between the tube and the travel cpap and you are ready to go. Each one lasts just under a week, and they come individually packed. It takes the worry and the hassle out of traveling if you have a cpap or bipod machine. An excellent product. By the way, my brand of cpap doesn't accept products made by other companies. Amazon sells an adapter, so this fits perfectly.

Mini CPAP humidifier
These are great for adding some humidity to my mini CPAP that does not have a humidifier. I actually put a tiny bit of water in these before I go to bed. Make sure you put it on the side of the hose closer to your face. It works better that way.

can;t tell if it's used
this fits as expected. seems to have a hissing noise that the water reservoir doesn't have. Can't tell when these are used up.
