How often should I clean my CPAP Mask?

Due to repeated use, these items receive the most wear and tear. It is essential to wash your face before putting on your mask to remove makeup, oils, or moisturizers that can rub off and soil the equipment. We recommend gently hand washing your mask and headgear with warm water and mild soap weekly to keep it in excellent shape. Check out the When to replace your CPAP supplies article for more information for all CPAP supply recommendations.

CPAP therapy is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Every patient is different, and symptoms can exacerbate based on everything from the severity of your condition to your sleeping position and how you breathe during sleep. Because of this, you might start seeing an improvement right away, or it could take longer than anticipated. At Lincare, we'll work closely with you to ensure your therapy is as effective as possible and that you receive the maximum benefits from your CPAP treatment.
