ResMed AirFit F30i Cushion Replacement

Your F30i cushion should be cleaned with warm soapy water or a CPAP mask wipe daily after use. Follow the steps below to disassemble and clean your mask cushion, or refer to page 4 of your owner’s manual:

1. Disconnect the lower headgear clips from the front of the mask
2. Undo the headgear fastening tabs at the top of the mask frame and separate the headgear from the frame
3. Remove the frame from the cushion where it connects on each side of the front of the mask
4. Soak your cushion in warm water with a mild soap, such as Purdoux CPAP Mask & Hose Soap, and scrub gently with a non-abrasive brush, sponge, cloth, or your hands
5. Rinse thoroughly and set aside to air dry out of direct sunlight

Cleaning your CPAP cushion regularly has many benefits, such as:

1. Improved hygiene and comfort: A regularly-cleaned cushion is much less likely to cause acne breakouts and irritated skin around the mouth and nose.
2. Enhanced performance: Cleaning your cushion removes any facial oils, sweat, saliva, or dirt that may accumulate overnight, resulting in a more secure and consistent seal.
3. Longer lifespan: Regularly cleaning your CPAP cushion increases the lifespan of your equipment, saving you more money on replacement supplies in the long run.

It is recommended that you replace your F30i cushion every 3 to 6 months to maintain a secure seal. Here are some signs that it’s time to replace your mask cushion:

1. Visible Cushion Damage: When you clean your cushion, it’s good to be mindful of any cracks, divots, or imperfections forming in the cushion’s silicone.
2. Discomfort or Hardness: If the cushion begins to form pressure points on your face, makes your face more irritated than it should, and begins to feel harder with less ‘bounce’ to it, it’s time to replace it.
3. Constantly Leaky Seal: If you can’t get a good seal anymore, no matter what you try, a new cushion could be the solution.
