CPAP Supplies & Replacement Schedule

If you’ve recently been diagnosed with sleep apnea and prescribed a CPAP machine, it’s normal to have questions. Our team is here to guide you through the process. Here’s what to expect:

Choosing the Right CPAP Equipment – We’ll help you find the best CPAP machine, mask, and accessories for your comfort and needs.

Fitting & Adjustments – A proper fit is essential for comfort and effectiveness. We offer mask fittings and adjustments to ensure the best seal and comfort.

How to Use Your CPAP Machine – Step-by-step instructions to get started with your machine, including setup, pressure adjustments, and humidifier settings.

Experiencing problems with your CPAP therapy? Here are some common issues and solutions:

Mask Leaks – Ensure the mask is fitted properly and try adjusting the straps. If leaks persist, you may need a different mask style.
Dry Mouth or Nasal Congestion – A CPAP humidifier or nasal sprays may help.
Discomfort or Pressure Sensation – Your machine’s ramp feature gradually increases airflow for a smoother experience.
CPAP Noise Issues – If your machine is too loud, it may need cleaning, filter replacement, or a quieter model.

Still having trouble? Our specialists are available to provide in-person or virtual support.

Mask & Cushions: Every 3-6 months
