Just heard from a sleep tech that her sleep center, located within a highly prestigious hospital in one of America's largest and most affluent metropolitan centers, fills patients humidifiers with tap water on CPAP titrations. furthermore, a 7 year-old child contracted Legionnaires Disease and died from being titrated with a CPAP humidifier filled with tap water.
Make sure you insist on distilled or reverse osmosis/ purified bottled water for your CPAP titrations in the sleep center. The life you save may be your own.
