Cloth Cushion Reduces Potential Skin Irritation

Once the flow of air begins, the soft cloth cushion inflates to create a balloon-style seal around your nose. The bubble seal reduces facial pressure and limits red marks. The breathable fabric further helps avoid skin irritation by preventing trapped moisture.

Cushion Offers a Just-Right Fit

When worn properly, the adjustment tab should be at the bottom of the cushion, which lets you position your mask to a fit that’s comfortable for your facial structure.

Choose Your Favorite Sleeping Position Thanks to the Flexible Elbow and Hose

Thanks to the 360-degree elbow rotation, you can route the hose over your head, down your chest, or on either side of your body, which gives you the ability to easily change sleeping positions throughout the night.

Unobstructed View Allows for the Comforts of Your Nighttime Routine

Get ready for bed the way you please by reading a book or watching a T.V. show—without bulky forehead support, you have an open line of sight that lets you enjoy your therapy while doing the things you normally do at bedtime.

Quiet Your Night With Exhalation Design

Since jets of air can disturb you and your partner, Circadiance created tiny exhalation holes in the SleepWeaver Elan CPAP Mask to minimize noise.

Product Warnings:

WARNINGS

• This system should not be used unless the therapy device is turned on and is operating properly.
• The vent holes should never be blocked.

Any mask will work with any machine, with one important exception. The ResMed AirMini is only compatible with certain ResMed CPAP masks. Compatible masks for the AirMini are as follows:

• ResMed AirFit™ N20 Nasal Mask
• ResMed AirFit™ F20 Full Face
• ResMed AirTouch™ F20 Full Face
• ResMed AirFit™ P10 Nasal Pillow

When considering another CPAP, APAP or BiPAP machine from ResMed or any other manufacturer, mask compatibility extends to all brands. The AirMini uses non-standard tubing to connect the machine to the mask, and is the primary reason why other masks won't work with the AirMini. Despite this issue, many of our customers consider the AirMini to be an excellent machine.

The cloth nasal cushion should be replaced once every three to six months.

Fit & Use Hints & Tips

• First step: Watch the product video on the "Videos & FAQ" tab of this page. Produced by the manufacturer, the video steps you through putting the mask on and addresses common fitting problems. The Elan is different than plastic and silicone masks. The cloth cushion inflates like a balloon, if a leaks occurs it is generally due to the cushion not inflating as intended.
• Fitting around the nose: The Elan cushion should completely cover the nose to create a seal. A leak around the nose is likely caused by the cushion not being positioned around the perimeter of the nose. To address, pull the mask out away from the face and slowly bring the cushion back onto the nose. Next, wiggle the cushion from side to side to re-seat the mask correctly around your nose. Refer to the video to see the process.
• Fitting the top of the cushion at the eyes: When the cushion is inflated the black material should show along the top of the cushion. A leak at the eyes generally means the mask is not completely inflated causing the cushion to droop and slightly lift the top of the cushion. Using a heavy tubing that is going down across the chest and starting with a lower pressure or low ramp pressure can contribute to eye leaks. To help with those leaks, we suggest wearing the featherweight tubing in the up position using the tether strap. This will take the excess weight off the bottom of the mask and lifts it up, reducing the pull at the top of the mask which can cause leaks around the eyes.
• Assembling the elbow connection: After cleaning or changing the cushion the connections must be securely made to ensure the mask cushion inflates. Make sure the fabric is centered on the threaded connector as you place the wash and elbow in place. There should be no fabric edges showing. The fitting video shows easy steps to assemble the cushion to the swivel elbow. Experiencing a leak around the elbow connection is generally due to the washer being loose. Take the mask off and re-tighten the washer. If you continue to hear air leaking, remove the swivel elbow from the cushion and reassemble the cushion to the elbow.

Where do I find the size?

To find the size of the SleepWeaver Elan™ Soft Cloth Nasal CPAP Mask, turn the mask to view the bottom of the cloth mask. With the cushion flaps facing the user, the information can be found by looking to the left of the mask seam. The word "S M A L L," "R E G U L A R," or "L A R G E" will be written out depending on the size of the cushion. By purchasing the single size mask, the user will receive only one cushion in the size selected.

Cushion Orientation - Which Way is Up?

The size of the cushion is printed on the bottom of the cushion. Also, the adjustment tab is on the bottom of the cushion. Looking at the inside of the cushion you see a stretch adjustment insert, it is also at the bottom of the cushion. The printing, adjustment insert and tab should all be on the bottom, and worn nearest to the upper lip.

The CPAP.com product page includes an image that shows the cushion from the inside, the side the nose enters, to illustrate up and down for the Elan cushion.
