Mask leaks
Mask leaks
Morning the last 4-5 days I’ve been getting high leaks 25-30lpm. I use a f20 ResMed full face mask foam cushion and replaced it with a new 2 days ago & still high #. I also a face liner to help but no go. I’m a mostly side sleeper mouth open ramp time set at 15. Any suggestions would be really appreciated. Tom
Re: Mask leaks
Try adjusting the mask straps while lying on your side, since side-sleeping can cause it to shift.
If your CPAP has an “Auto” mode, it might be worth trying that too, or adjusting the ramp settings, since higher pressure can sometimes cause more leaks with a full face mask

Re: Mask leaks
I was wrong on the lpm last night was above 45 and the prior 3 days above 35. I just recently bought a heat hose and just checked it for leaks didn’t see anything and also the last 4-5 days when I put my mask on I check the “mask fit” and it’s “good”. Again I thank you for your time & comments
