Frequently Asked Questions
A full-face mask covers both the nose and the mouth, forming a seal that ensures the air pressure is delivered to both the upper airway (nose) and the lower airway (mouth). Full-face masks are often used when individuals breathe through their mouth during sleep, have nasal congestion that prevents them from breathing through their nose, or prefer a mask that covers the entire face for comfort. They are suitable for people who experience nasal blockages, have allergies, or tend to open their mouths during sleep. They also prevent air leaks caused by mouth breathing. Full-face masks can be bulkier and may feel claustrophobic to some users. They might also have a higher chance of air leaks than nasal masks.
A nasal mask covers only the nose. It forms a seal around the nostrils to deliver the pressurized air directly to the upper airway. Nasal masks are suitable for individuals who primarily breathe through their nose during sleep and do not have significant mouth-breathing habits or issues. They are typically less bulky and offer a more open feeling than full-face masks. Many users find them less claustrophobic and more comfortable. A nasal mask may not be as effective if you breathe through your mouth during sleep or have nasal congestion. Air leaks might occur if the mouth opens during sleep.
The mask cushion, which creates a seal around your nose or mouth, should be replaced more frequently than other components. It typically needs to be replaced every 1 to 3 months or as recommended by the manufacturer. If you notice visible wear and tear, cracks, or the cushion no longer maintains a proper seal, it's time to replace it.
The headgear and straps that hold the mask in place should be replaced every 6 to 12 months or as needed. Over time, the elastic properties of the headgear can diminish, affecting the mask's fit and comfort.
The tubing that delivers the air from the CPAP machine to the mask should be replaced every 3 to 6 months. Inspect it regularly for any cracks, tears, or damage that could affect the airflow.
If you use a chin strap to help keep your mouth closed during CPAP therapy, it should be replaced every 6 to 12 months. Check for any signs of wear and ensure it still provides the desired support.
It's important to note that these are general guidelines, and the replacement frequency can vary based on individual usage, care, and the specific recommendations of your CPAP equipment manufacturer. Regularly inspecting your components for wear and tear, maintaining proper hygiene, and following the manufacturer's guidelines for maintenance and replacement will help ensure the longevity and effectiveness of your CPAP therapy. If you have any doubts or questions, it's always a good idea to consult with your healthcare provider or the supplier of your CPAP equipment.
CPAP masks come in various types: nasal masks, nasal pillow masks, and full-face masks. Before choosing, consider how you naturally breathe during sleep. A nasal mask might work well if you primarily breathe through your nose. A full-face mask could be a better fit if you tend to breathe through your mouth or have nasal congestion.
Comfort is crucial for successful CPAP therapy. Look for a mask that provides a secure and comfortable fit without causing discomfort or pressure points. All Sleepnet masks have adjustable headgear and AIR°gel® technology to customize your fit and provide a comfortable seal.
