Product Overview

The Hybernite Rainout Control System is a stand alone option for reducing rainout or condensation in the CPAP tube. Unlike other heated hose options, the Hybernite can be used with any CPAP or BiPAP machine that accepts a standard tubing. Copper wires embedded in the walls of the tubing use its own power source to uniformly heat and prevent condensation by maintaining the temperature.

Manufactured by Plastiflex Healthcare.

Product Features

Use the Hybernite Rainout Control System (ROC) to get the benefits of improved humidification and reduced rainout using any CPAP or BiPAP machines that accepts a standard tubing without the cost of upgrading the entire system!

Using its own, medical grade power source, the copper wires embedded in the walls of the tubing uniformly heat along the length of the tube to maintain the temperature inside the tubing and prevent the humidified air from condensing as it travels from CPAP and Humidifier to the mask.

To avoid rainout, CPAP users often makes changes that may compromise their therapy and sleep. These include reducing the humidification setting on their system, lowering it below the prescribed or desired level, and raising the temperature in the bedroom. The Hybernite ROC allows you to control the temperature inside the delivery tubing rather than the environment around it.
