DME rechecked mine. If you have an uncooperative DME, a technician checks pressure at all A.W.A.K.E meetingshere for free and one of the accredited sleep labs will, too (I don't know if there's a charge at the sleep lab). Don't know if this is the case in your area.

My sleep doc said pressure checks were important on the older equipment but that the new ones hold their pressure. However, at the AWAKE meeting, one of the Remstars like mine was way off.
