  • Daily mask cleaning

    What do folk use for daily cleaning of your mask? Going to work at 0700 and not getting home till 1800 I dont bahve a lot of time. At present I'm using Johnsons baby wipes to clean the seals & wipe inside. Then weekly I put it and the humidifier tank in the dishwasher.

    I find I'm getting leaks especially in the early hours. So llast night I gave it a was with a bar of bath soap (imperial leather) then put it in the airing cupboard for an hour or so before bed. That seemed a lot better .
    What do others use in the UK

    I use antiseptic wipes on the mask and hose daily - well, most days. Once a week I fill the water chamber with white vinegar and water and soak it for a few minutes. Weekly I wash the mask and hose with Simple soap.

      I have time issues too and use CPAP wipes every morning. (I got them from Intus) It only takes a few moments and although gentle they are very effective. Once a week I get time to give the tank, mask and hose a good wash in a mild liquid soap. Providing my face is freshly washed when I go to bed, I do not get many leak problems during the night.

        Tesco sensitive wipes

        Alcohol-free (so don't attack the silicon) and 69p for 25!

        Use on mask AND face; works a treat.

          Sleepweaver gets hand washed every 2-4 nights. If I'm using the quattro FX it gets wiped with cpap wipes, use on face as well and get a great non slip seal!

          Hose / humidifier chamber get cleaned with milton once a month ish.
