When to replace your sleep therapy equipment
Worn out equipment can lessen the effectiveness of your treatment. See when to replace it.
Signs that you should replace your mask or mask parts
It has leaks caused by seal deterioration in the mask
Facial oils deteriorate the sealing effect of cushions over time, even with proper hygiene. Don't tighten the headgear when you feel leaks. Over-tightening causes discomfort and pressure points, and can lead to additional leaks.
It鈥檚 damaged by improper cleaning
Use only mild, soapy water. Don鈥檛 use soaps with moisturisers or perfumes. This is not intended to replace your user manual. Please refer to your user manual or contact your therapy provider should you have any questions about your device or treatment.
Your mask doesn鈥檛 fit properly
A mask that doesn鈥檛 fit can cause you to readjust your mask continually and/or over-tighten the headgear, which reduces how long it can work effectively. Contact your provider to get re-fitted.
It has signs of aging or damage
These can be leakage issues, cushions that lose shape, and/or components or cushions that become cracked or torn.
