CPAP Accessories

Here are some community favorites that you might enjoy:

• The 3B Lumin CPAP Cleaner is incredibly handy as it disinfects your CPAP mask with UV light with a touch of a button. The only downside is that it doesn't clean your CPAP hose like the 3B Lumin Bullet or a CPAP tube brush.
• Looking for a CPAP-friendly cleaning solution that's safe? The Control 3 Disinfectant Solution is a medical-grade cleaning solution that's effective for deep cleaning.
• CPAP mask wipes are useful to wipe down your mask parts for a quick refresh in the morning.

If you're looking to clean without buying accessories, you can clean your CPAP mask with mild detergent and warm water after each use. Your mask is what contacts your nose or mouth all night, so it's critical to know how to keep it clean.  

Mask leaks and skin irritation are two of the most common problems people face with CPAP therapy. Luckily, there are several products available to address these problems. The most common and successful solution is using a CPAP mask liner. Mask liners are soft pads that wrap around the CPAP cushion to help reduce skin irritation and help prevent mask leaks by providing a better seal.

Popular Mask Liners:

• RemZzzs CPAP Mask Liners for Full Face Masks
• Pad A Cheek Anti Leak Liner for AirFit F20 and AirFit F30 
• Silent Night CPAP Mask Liner for Full Face Masks
• RemZzzs CPAP Nasal Mask Liners

If you're using a heated humidifier, condensation can form as the warm air cools down as it travels through your hose. This can lead to water splashing onto your face which is not ideal. Here are the recommended accessories to prevent CPAP rainout:

1. CPAP hose cover 
2. Heated CPAP hose

Both of the options above are effective in keeping moisture out.

Traveling with your CPAP equipment doesn't have to be a vexing experience. With so many solutions out on the market today, here's a list of popular travel accessories to keep in mind.

When you're flying, it is highly recommended that you have your CPAP equipment as a carry-on with a travel bag or carrying case. Your CPAP machine won't count as a carry-on since it is a medical device.

For DreamStation Go users, the DreamStation Travel Kit is the travel case for you. The Medium Travel Kit is spacier than the small travel kit which accommodates your overnight battery attached or heated humidifier.
