When should you order new CPAP supplies?

A part’s lifespan depends on your usage frequency, cleaning routine and whether the part touches your face.

Check your parts regularly for signs of wear and tear. When your CPAP equipment is working at its best, you’ll be able to tell the difference.

And remember, you can always check with your CPAP equipment provider whether you require a replacement.
