Your advices are very precious and you are generous and kind people.
Do not think that I am too mieloso!
I live my therapy in total solitude.
I started in September 2015 and still today, no doctor has seen my sleep data.
There are no free forum in my country and I can not talk about my CPAP with anyone.
I do not know you but, you are my best friends for therapy.
Thanks so much

I have heard a DME state that ALL cpap equipment sold online is counterfeit.
Sour grapes, I'm sure.

I have used it in the past to make my own mask liners out of an old tee shirt. The pattern is a small size. If you need a larger liner, you can enlarge it as necessary. http://montfordhouse.com/cpap/diy-cotton-mask-liner.pdf
Yesterday I took your advice and I printed your pattern. Then I made a mask liner cotton.
It seems that it works well, but during sleep slipped away.
I have to invent some way to hold it in place.
Thank you

With Airfit F10 I have air leaks near the eyes, especially when I sleep on the side and the mask sinks into the pillow.
I have observed that, if the tube comes from below, leverages and losses increase.
If the hose goes down from the top, the situation improved a lot.
Theory of small steps, ok!
Tonight AHI = 0.1
