Everest 3 CPAP Overview
The Everest 3 CPAP is quiet, reliable and has one of the smallest footprints on the market. The Everest rests within a minimal space on your nightstand by stacking the Heated Humidifier and Battery Pack, one atop of the other. The Battery Pack allows use anywhere and acts as a backup power source in the event your electricity goes out.
Please note that the Heated Humidifier and Battery Pack are included in the price of this machine.
Although this item is no longer available, the Transcend Travel CPAP Machine is a similar option. It weighs under a pound and fits in your hand. The Transcend also comes with great battery options.

AEIOMed continues to improve the Everest CPAP machine. The Everest 3 is rugged enough for travel, small enough to be easily stowed in your carry on luggage, and best of all, it takes little room on the night stand.
The Everest 3 Features include:
Quiet. The motor and mechanics now operate at 22 Decibels without the humidifier. Due to the extra volume of space, installing the humidifier brings the sound up to 28 dbA.
Lightweight. AEIOMed has changed out several components inside the CPAP, lowering the weight. The Everest 3 weighs 1.8 lbs, which is 5.6 ounces lighter than the Everest 2.
Humidification. The heated humidifier has a redesigned lid that snaps into place, assuring the system is secure. The water chamber was also improved so that the electric connectors are located on the back side, instead of on the bottom where water could damage the connection.
Optional Software Capability. The Everest 3 can now record 13 months of daily compliance data with its new on-board memory. Use the DataRest Docking Station and Software to transfer data from the CPAP to the Data Card for a graphical interpretation of your therapy.
Battery Operated. The Everest 3 uses the same integrated, rechargeable battery, but now capable of powering the unit and humidifier throughout the night at ANY pressure. It's perfect for camping, boating or other activities that take patients beyond stationary power supplies and acts as a backup during power outages as well. This battery can operate the system all night, and adds only one inch to the system's height.

Interface Interrupt
An Interface Interrupt occurs when your mask is not securely positioned on your face and the air leak is excessive. The device will automatically reduce the pressure in approximately 60 seconds, if you remove or do not securely position the mask. Secure the interface and the pressure will increase to the prescribed level when you resume breathing.
Within one hour, the Everest will shut off the blower and enter Standby mode if you do not breathe with a correctly positioned patient interface.

Which CPAP masks work on which machines?
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.
How do I choose the machine that is right for me?
We provide our customers with many tools to make informed decisions about their machine purchases. Options include:
- Calling a CPAP Expert Toll Free. 800.356.5221.

What maintenance is required on machines?
The only care a CPAP, APAP or BiPAP machine requires is to clean or change the filters at the air intake. This keeps the internal parts from accumulating dust. Fine paper filters should be changed out every 30 days, or when they appear soiled. Foam washable filters should be rinsed with clear running water once a week, allowed to air dry, and reinserted.
Here are some other suggested actions to care for your machine:
Here are some other suggested actions to care for your machine:
- Keep the area around your machine clean by removing any dust from the area to improve the air quality delivered to your machine and to you.
- Keep the air intake of the machine unblocked. Curtains, bedding, and papers can easily block the air intake of your machine, reducing the airflow.
- If a humidifier is used with your therapy, do not pick up the machine with the humidifier attached. With most machines it is easy to spill water from the humidifier chamber into the machine causing damage. Manufacturer warranties are voided by water damage to the machine. To avoid this, remove the chamber from the humidifier and then remove the humidifier from the machine rather than transporting them together.
- If a humidifier is used, empty the water from the chamber every morning. Accidents happen. If a family pet or family member moves the machine and humidifier with water in the chamber it is more likely that water could be spilled into your machine. Water damage to a machine voids the manufacturer warranty.
What does CPAP therapy do?
CPAP therapy provides a constant airflow which holds the airway open so that uninterrupted breathing is maintained during sleep. It is traditionally provided through a nasal mask that seals around the nose to maintain the pressure level.
Do all CPAPs use filters?
Yes, all CPAPs use at least one filter that is usually a type of foam material and washable. Some CPAPs offer finer filtration with the addition of a disposable paper filter.
Cleaning and changing filters is the only maintenance required for a CPAP machine.
The filters are located at the back of the machine at the air intake.

The filters are located at the back of the machine at the air intake.
What is ramp?
The ramp button on a machine is a feature that allows for a gradual pressure build-up to your prescribed pressure. The feature is enjoyed by those with high pressures because it eases up to their pressure.
What is exhalation relief?
Exhalation relief is a comfort feature which reduces the air flow at the time of exhalation, making the breathing process more natural.
The following are the different types of exhalation relief names by manufacturer.
Here are some machines with an exhalation relief feature:

How do I use a battery to operate my CPAP?
All machines can connect to DC power. Some machines are configured to operate on DC Power and have a DC power outlet. Other machines require AC power and will need an Inverter that turns DC power to AC power.
Having the proper equipment is the biggest key to successfully operating the machine from a battery. For example, if your machine does have a DC outlet and you want to run your machine from a marine battery, be sure to get the correct DC cable for the machine, as well as an adapter cable with alligator clips that fits over the cigarette lighter plug.
CPAP.com sells complete battery kits with everything you need for many machines including the correct cables for those machines and batteries. If you have questions about the specific power needs of your machine, review the 'Power' tab found on the machine's product page, or give us a call at 1-800-356-5221.
What does a CPAP prescription need to say?
A CPAP prescription must contain all of the following information:
Here are some of our top selling CPAP machines:

Will my CPAP operate overseas?
An adapter may be required to plug a US power cord into a wall outlet in a foreign country. CPAP.com sells an assortment pack of World Traveler Power Adapter Plugs, which allow CPAP machines to plug into different types of wall sockets found in different countries.
All the models CPAP.com sell contain power converters that enable the machine to operate on any AC current from 100 to 240 volts without any adjustment.

How do I prepare for plane travel with CPAP?
Your CPAP does NOT count against your carry on limits. Allow for an additional 10-20 minutes in security, not likely but it happens. If airport personnel ask about the CPAP, let them know politely that it is a medical device (a CPAP unit). Most of them understand what it is and that it is an exception to the normal rules. We provide a luggage tag for CPAP systems: https://www.cpap.com/productpage/medical-identification-luggage-tag-cpap-equipment
You can use your CPAP on board, just use batteries or make sure you're seated by a power outlet. You can call or reserve one of these seats online with most airlines. Alternatively visit Seat Guru , a website that works with most major airlines.
Be sure to bring spare parts and a back up mask. If you're in a bind, CPAP.com delivers all over the US and to most international destinations.

How do I prepare for international travel with CPAP?
To prepare for your international travel, be sure to:
- Check the voltage of your destination. You may need a plug adapter for your machine.
- It is recommended to pack spare parts for your equipment.
- Review the general Travel Tips found in this section.
- It may be necessary to bring a travel-sized surge protector with you when you travel. Some countries have issues with power surges that can damage your machine. It's hard to say which country has power surges and which ones don't, so it's helpful to be prepared and bring a surge protector.
- While CPAP.com can ship internationally, we cannot guarantee any delivery date, and you may not want to incur the additional costs of having a replacement sent to your hotel.
Will my CPAP operate on DC / battery power?
All CPAPs will operate on DC power with the use of an Inverter to change the current from DC to AC before it reaches the machine. However, many will operate on DC power without the need for an inverter, just a power cord that plugs into the CPAP and ends in a cigarette lighter plug.
Inverters do require a lot of power. If you need to use an inverter to run your machine on battery power, the inverter will probably take about half the life off the battery.
To determine if your CPAP will operate without an inverter, look for a DC outlet on the machine, either at the back or on the side, with a single opening directly in the center. It should be labeled "DC POWER" or similar term. You can also review our Compare Charts to see if your machine has a optional DC cable option.
Here is a video describing different DC cable and battery options for various machines:

What type of battery should I use?
For longer battery use, we suggest using a deep-cycle marine battery to power the machine. A deep-cycle marine battery is heavier than the ordinary battery, but it has many advantages. The battery is easily found at auto shops and it provides power to the machine for an extended period of time. For example, a CPAP machine set at 10 cm H20 and charged on a deep-cycle marine battery will usually last three nights before it needs to be recharged.
There are small, portable battery packs that will operate a CPAP set at 10cm for at least one night, or about eight hours. CPAP.com sells full Battery Kits that come with everything needed to run your machine off battery power including the correct cables needed for your machine and a battery. You can find the battery kit for your machine Here. On each battery kit page, you can input your machine and pressure setting to see an estimate battery life for your machine.
Some machines have batteries created to be used specifically with them only. Here are some of the machines we carry with integrated or specialized battery options:

I think this is the greatest.....
I think this is the greatest, most economical unit on the market. If you don't have to have tracking, etc. This is the only unit to have. I love the way it all integrates into a single unit with the humidifier below. Thanks AEIOmed for this unit. The battery pack is also fantastic and snaps into place below the humidifier. Saved me during an electrical outage recently, and great for camping out! more...

Got tired of lugging my home machine around with me when I had to fly somewhere. TSA didn't know what to think of it. If it wasn't for the battery pack, they probably would never 'wiped' it. more...

workhorse, quiet
I have two of the '2s', to have for second home. Got the first when going for a week rafting. Never slept better! Bought this one for my sis who likes to camp. She'll love it, too. This is the only kind I'll ever get for me, too. more...

Awesome
This cpap is a huge improvement over the brick I have been lugging around on all of my business travel. Small, quiet, and it has a battery. Can't wait to use it on an international flight. more...
