Can't sleep

Eve I'm a mouth breather also. Used bipap & full face mask over 10 years. I solved air leaks by cleaning cushion that contacts face with wipes every 2 or 3 nights. It removes oily residue from my skin for better contact to my face. Every so often I check the elastic head straps as they stretch a small amount, tighting them a little bit helps maintain a better seal. Hope this helps you. Mark

Hello again, @hosta. Disinfectant wipes are not recommended for masks. I use Professional CPAP Mask Wipes 100% pure cotton. It's a safe & effective natural cleansing formula, unscented wet wipes. Mask cushions should be replaced every 3 to 6 months.
