Learn about the parts of a CPAP mask
If you’re starting therapy, it’s helpful to understand how your mask and related components work – and when to replace them. Masks are used to deliver the air from your therapy machine to you. Most masks have built-in exhalation ports that vent your exhaled air.
Headgear
(elastic straps and back) The headgear helps to ensure a comfortable and secure fit, holding the mask in its correct place during the night.
Tubing
The tube is critical for effective therapy. You have the option to use a heated tube connected to a humidifier to keep air moist. Look over your tube each night to make sure there are no cracks or other damage.
Cushions and pillows
Nasal or pillow cushions provide a comfortable fit and seal.
Frame
The unique DreamWear design allows air to flow through the mask frame itself.
Replacement schedule
Inspect your equipment often for wear and tear, and if you think you need a replacement, contact your homecare provider.
Headgear: every 6 months
Tubing: every 3 months
