Quick answer: This is the genuine ResMed SlimLine tubing wrap (part 36811) — an insulated fabric cover that slips over your 15mm SlimLine tubing to retain heat, help reduce rainout (condensation inside the hose), and let the tube slide smoothly across bedding (less drag on your mask). It also protects the hose (including from curious pets). Gray insulated material with a full-length zipper for easy on/off. Tube not included — this is the wrap only, for the 6 ft SlimLine hose. FSA/HSA eligible.
What's included
- 1 × ResMed SlimLine tubing wrap (for 15mm / 6 ft SlimLine tubing, part 36811)
SlimLine tubing (36810) not included.
About this part
If you use a heated humidifier in a cool room, warm humid air meets the cooler tube wall and condenses — "rainout" — leaving water in the hose. This tubing wrap insulates the SlimLine hose to help keep the air inside warm:
- Reduces rainout — microfiber-filled, insulating material helps retain heat in the tube and cut condensation in cold conditions.
- Less drag — a smooth outer surface glides over bedding, so the hose is less likely to catch and tug your mask (helping the seal stay put).
- Protects the hose — cushions the tube and can help guard against pets chewing it.
- Comfort & looks — softer feel and a tidier look on the bed; a full-length zipper makes it easy to put on and take off.
A realistic note: rainout has several causes — a wrap helps insulate the tube, but if your humidity is set high in a very cold room you may still see some condensation. Pairing the wrap with a slightly lower humidity or a heated tube can help further.
Compatibility — important
Designed for the 15mm SlimLine tubing (6 ft) — this is the wrap only; the SlimLine tube (36810) is sold separately. (It's sized for the 6 ft SlimLine hose; heated ClimateLineAir tubing is about 6″ longer, so it won't fully cover that hose.)

Frequently asked questions
What does the tubing wrap do? It's an insulated cover for your SlimLine hose. It helps retain heat to reduce rainout (condensation), lets the tube slide smoothly over bedding to reduce drag on your mask, and protects the hose.
Which tube does it fit? The ResMed 15mm SlimLine tubing (6 ft). The tube itself isn't included. It's not sized for the longer ClimateLine hose.
Will it stop rainout completely? It helps by insulating the tube, but rainout also depends on humidity level and room temperature. In a very cold room with high humidity you may still see some — lowering humidity or using a heated tube can help further.
Does it include the tubing? No — this is the wrap only. The SlimLine tube is 36810.
Is it easy to put on? Yes — it has a full-length zipper, so it's easy to attach and remove.
Do I need a prescription? No — a tubing wrap does not require a prescription.
Can I get it delivered in Brooklyn or shipped nationwide? Yes — Task Supply Corp offers USPS shipping throughout the continental U.S., plus local pickup and delivery in Brooklyn and all five boroughs of New York City.
Use with ResMed SlimLine tubing per the machine's user guide. A wrap helps insulate the tube; manage rainout together with humidity and room-temperature settings.
