The point I was trying to make is this. To keep condensation from forming in the mask you must keep the air temperature higher than when it was humidified. So heating the air After the humidifier to compensate for the heat losses in the hose will keep moisture from forming. I don't think you need to heat it much, maybe 5-10 degrees max. I'm going to try to set up some temperature monitoring equipment and do some tests to find the best setup.
