DreamStation 2 Auto CPAP Advanced with Humidifier

The DreamStation 2 Auto CPAP Advanced by Philips Respironics is designed to provide operational efficiencies and a simplified user experience, including flexible setup, a fully integrated humidifier and modem, advanced comfort features and patient management tools. This in turn helps to provide the best possible Sleep Apnea therapy experience.

The main difference between these two CPAP machines is that the DreamStation 2 has the integrated humidifier. In the past, original DreamStation users that wanted a humidified option for their CPAP therapy had to purchase a separate optional add-on. With the DreamStation 2 CPAP, it already comes with a humidification system integrated right out of the box.

The DreamStation 2 as it consists of even more advanced features than before. It is lighter and more compact than the previous model without compromising on important features of its predecessor. Updated features include allowing you to make changes to your sleep therapy in real-time and you experience the change in settings as it happens. This helps the user to fine tune their settings in fine detail and to their exact preference.

The machine was released in April 2021.

Yes it can. If you are not too concerned about humidified therapy or view it as a must-have option, then the DreamStation 2 CPAP will still be usable and cater for your needs.The machine itself will continue to disperse dry air into your mask. However, if you are in an already humid environment, you may find that humidification is not even necessary at all.

Try to wash your gray plastic filter at least once a week by running tap water through the white media and then shake the filter to remove as much water as possible and allow it to air dry completely before using it again. You must also inspect the disposable blue filter at least once a week and discard it if dirty. Time frames are dependent on your environmental surroundings so if you live in a pollen filled or dusty area, this may have to be done more frequently or as you see fit by inspecting the condition of the filters.

You needn’t worry. Your CPAP device will function normally and safely without distilled water in the water tub or chamber. The only difference and outcome will be that it will no longer provide humidification during Sleep Apnea therapy.

Yes. Harmony HCS highly recommends this. Please ensure that you refill your humidification chamber daily with the highest quality distilled water available. The same concept applies whether it's for humidifying or for cleaning. Harmony HCS cannot stress enough that you must never reuse the water in the chamber, as it can possibly breed bacteria and other microorganisms that could make you very ill.
