How Do I Take Care of My CPAP Mask?

Patients often ask, “How do I care for my CPAP mask?” Caring for CPAP masks is relatively simple. Every morning, when you remove your mask, take a soft, soapy suds solution such as an Ivory dishwashing solution and simply soap it up liberally, and rinse it off and let it air dry.

Never, never, never use harsh chemicals or detergents on the mask as this will accelerate the deterioration of your mask material, leading to air leakage and mask discomfort. Proper care of your mask will make it last longer, allowing you to use the mask for three to six months.
