Daily use means your CPAP gear collects oils, moisture, and airborne particles. Without regular cleaning, this can lead to:

• Skin irritation or breakouts
• Mold or bacterial growth
• Unpleasant odors
• Reduced therapy effectiveness
  

-Using our CPAP-safe soaps and wipes helps keep your equipment fresh, hygienic, and performing at its best.

• Mask cushion: Clean daily with our CPAP mask wipes or gentle mask soap to remove facial oils and maintain a secure seal.
• Headgear and frame: Wash weekly using our specialty soap to prevent sweat buildup and preserve elasticity.
• Tubing: Clean weekly with our hose-safe soap to prevent moisture-related odors and bacteria.
• Humidifier chamber: Rinse daily and deep clean weekly with our chamber-safe soap or a vinegar solution.
• Reusable filters: Rinse weekly with warm water—no soap needed.
• Machine exterior: Wipe weekly with our CPAP surface wipes to remove dust and fingerprints.

We recommend:

• CPAP Mask Wipes for quick daily cleaning
• Specialty CPAP Soap for masks, hoses, and humidifier chambers—formulated to rinse clean without residue
• Distilled water for humidifiers to prevent mineral buildup
  

- Avoid household soaps with moisturizers, dyes, or fragrances—they can damage silicone and leave residue.

• Bleach, alcohol, or ammonia-based cleaners
• Scented or moisturizing soaps
• Dishwashers, washing machines, or dryers
• Direct sunlight or heat for drying
  These can degrade materials, void warranties, or cause skin reactions.

Yellowing is usually caused by oil buildup or exposure to sunlight. Daily use of our CPAP mask wipes and proper drying can prevent discoloration and extend the life of your cushion.

• Daily: Empty and rinse with warm water, let air dry
• Weekly: Soak in our chamber-safe soap or a 1:9 vinegar-water mix for 20–30 minutes, rinse thoroughly, and dry away from sunlight

Yes. Distilled water prevents mineral buildup and keeps your humidifier chamber clean and clear. Tap water can leave white residue and shorten the life of your equipment.

Unplug the device and gently wipe the exterior with our CPAP-safe surface wipes. Avoid getting moisture near vents or buttons.

• Pack CPAP wipes for daily mask cleaning
• Use bottled water for rinsing if tap water isn’t safe
• Skip vinegar soaks until you’re home
• Let parts air dry on a clean towel in your hotel room

• Rinse under warm water until clear
• Gently squeeze out excess water (don’t wring)
• Air dry completely before reinserting
  Never use soap or heat to dry them.

Yes—dry indoor air and increased illness risk mean:

• Clean humidifier chamber more frequently to prevent mineral buildup
• Use distilled water to avoid white residue
• Clean mask daily, especially if you're sick

A musty or sour odor usually means moisture wasn’t fully dried, allowing bacteria or mold to grow. Try this:

• Soak tubing in a 1:9 vinegar-to-water solution or our CPAP soap for 30 minutes
• Rinse thoroughly with warm water
• Hang to dry in a well-ventilated area (not direct sunlight)

If the smell persists, it’s time to replace the tubing.

Use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) and our CPAP-safe soap to gently scrub the exhalation ports. Rinse thoroughly and let air dry. This helps maintain proper airflow and prevents blockages.
