Many CPAP users find that heated humidification improves their sleep therapy comfort and helps promote compliance. The problem with traditional heated humidification options is that they are bulky, heavy and inconvenient -- requiring users to carry a heater, humidifier chambers, and a supply of water too! The Transcend's unique Heat and Moisture Exchange (HME) Humidifier Systems do away with all that providing the first ever truly portable humidified CPAP solution.

HME humidification has been used in hospitals for more than 50 years to provide heat and moisture to critically and chronically ill patients on ventilators. Until Transcend, no CPAP manufacturer has been able to crack the code for using this unique – and important – technology in sleep apnea therapy.

The hygienic heat and moisture exchange (HME) filter cartridge is disposable and has no electric elements. HME technology works with you naturally as you breathe. When you exhale, the HME captures the warmth and moisture from your breath while CO2 passes through the filter and out the mask vent leak. Then, when you inhale, the HME warms and humidifies the air as it passes through the HME filter. It’s a simple, natural and effective solution to the heated humidifier. With Waterless Humidification there’s no cleaning, no distilled water, no break downs, and no malfunctions. Just warm, moist comfort with every breath.

The Transcend H6B Waterless Humidification Kit provides HME humidification using a special 6-foot air delivery hose that measures CPAP pressure at the mask, downstream of the HME filter, to provide constant and consistent therapy pressure all through the night. With the H6B Humidification System you can place your CPAP on a bedside table, on the floor next to the bed, or wherever it's convenient for you.

The Transcend H6B Waterless Humidification System includes a proprietary mask that is compatible with the most popular nasal cushions (seals) on the market including the Ultra Mirage II, Mirage SoftGel, Mirage Activa LT, Mirage Activa, ComfortGel (Original) Nasal and ComfortGel BLUE Nasal Masks. The H6B Humidification System must be used with one of the mask seals listed. It cannot be used with other nasal or full face masks.
