Tip #1
When your supplies wear out (which will happen over time with use), the seal your mask forms against your skin becomes loose and insecure. It’s important to replace your supplies regularly to keep a strong seal the whole night through.
Full face cushions are recommended for replacement every month, and nasal options (both cushion and pillows) require changing every 2 weeks. Luckily, this is also the same schedule that most insurance providers are willing to cover replacement supplies. Using insurance for your CPAP supplies is convenient not just because it saves you money, but also because it helps you adhere to a replacement schedule.

Tip #2
Did you know that newer machines can be calibrated for your specific mask type? Any time you change masks types you may need to switch the mask fit settings, or your pressure may not regulate correctly and cause mask leaks.
The AirSense 11 CPAP automatically adjusts mask fit to match the mask you use. It also features automatic comfort settings to help you stay CPAP compliant:

Tip #3
If your mask isn’t kept clean every day, it can affect your seal during the night. Without cleaning, masks will break down faster and lose their seal quicker. A dirty mask can also affect how well your mask seals to your face, as build up from your skin can weaken the barrier formed with the silicone.
