Key Product Information

    Manufacturer: Respironics

    The In-line Bacteria Filter is a must-have among CPAP supplies for any customer suffering from allergies. This filter cleans the air as it leaves a CPAP or Bilevel machine. It is used in conjunction with the machine's built-in inlet filters to provide very clean air. It is a recommended CPAP supply compatible with all CPAP and Bilevel machines. This Respironics outlet filter is unique in that it does not reduce the pressure at the mask. It installs easily on all machines.


    Returns Offered on Warranty Issues Only

In House Comments
If the filter becomes very dirty it can affect machine performance. It is easy to see the condition of the filter. Replace when it become discolored.

This filter may have an impact on the ability of any Auto Adjusting CPAP to accurately respond to airflow restrictions during use. If the average treatment pressure is below a pressure of 7cm H2O this should not be used.

We recommend that this product be used only by CPAP users who do not normally use a heated humidifier. Heated humidifiers can cause water to collect in the filter chamber, thus clogging the filter and adversely affecting therapy.

CPAP and BiPAP machines with Auto On/Off Feature. The Auto On/Off Feature has a difficult time sensing air flow, which helps determine whether the machine is in use or simply blowing air. Our tests show the Auto On/Off feature does not work with the following machines:
  • ResMed S8 Vantage
  • ResMed S8 AutoSet II
  • ResMed s8 VPAP
  • ResMed s8 VPAP Auto 25
  • ResMed VPAP Malibu
If a Whisper Cap is used on a M Series machine without a heated humidifier, it will not fit if used together with a outlet bacteria filter. If you wish to use both a Whisper Cap and a outlet bacteria filter without a heated humidifier, then you should add a Hose Quick Connect or a M Series Tubing Swivel between the cpap machine and the outlet bacteria filter.

As always, just call if you have any questions.

Use of inline bacteria filter   May 17, 2009

(5 out of 5) by Paul C, Smiths Falls, ON

"For years, every winter I have suffered from bronchitis. I believe it is due to an enclosed atmosphere (our winters are harsh up here in Ottawa Canada). I believe that the in-line bacteria filter will be an important step in managing my lung condition over the winter season. I know that the filter is effective, since after only a month of usage, the filter is grey with particles. Congratulations on an excellent product."

NOT GOOD WITH HUMIDIFIERS   May 02, 2009

(3 out of 5) by Sherri S, Anderson, IN

"I ADDED MY FILTER ON TO MY MACHINE. NO LEAKS WORKED FINE WITH REGULAR EQUIPMENT BUT SINCE I USE A FULL FASE AND BREATHE THROUGH MY MOUTH I NEED A HUMIDIFIER AND THE FILTER SEEMS TO INTERFERE WITH THE AMOUNT OF HUMIDIDITY I RECIEVE CAUSING A SORE THROAT SO I TOOK IT OFF AND NO PROBLEMS."

Huge Difference   April 21, 2009

(5 out of 5) by bill c, KY

"Huge difference in my allergies I actually reduced the amount of medicine I was taking and because they slow the pressure change slightly on my BiPap I no longer have air blowing out of my tear ducts, a very rare problem I'm told but if you've had it you know what I mean."
