Need Swift FX part

Post by Catnap » Wed Mar 09, 2011 10:35 am

Somehow, the hose from my Swift FX and the coupler that fastens it to the hose from my CPAP machine parted ways after only a few days of use, and the coupler has never been seen again (cat burglars --the four-footed kind -- are highly suspected). Unfortunately, replacing the coupler means buying the entire hose assembly for $74. For the time being, I've cannibalized the coupler from my Swift LT hose (which costs only $14.99 to replace), but it has to be cobbled together with duct tape and can't swivel, which makes it hard to keep the pillows sealed (every little movement tugs on the pillows instead of being managed by the hose swiveling). I thought I'd advertise here to see if anyone has a Swift FX they'd like to sell (for less than $74, obviously ). Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions!

Interesting that there are three bidders in on that -- makes me wonder if the hose assembly is a known issue with this mask (well, the cats stealing the connector might be a one-off...).

Catnap:

If you still need that part for the FX, PM me! I have a spare and I will send it to you gratis! (If i understand, it's the small hose that goes from the pillows to the larger hose going to the machine?)

All the best!
Steve,
