Mask smells weird
I washed my mask, but it still smells weird. Is that normal or should I get a new mask?
Re: Mask smells weird
What do you mean by "still" smells weird? Is it new? Bought used on Craig's list? What kind of smell is it?

Re: Mask smells weird
When you wash the hose and tank, throw in a little mouthwash.

Re: Mask smells weird
My mask smells like whatever I cooked that day. Luckily I rarely cook. I also smell shampoo if I use that to clean the mask no matter how long I rinse so I tend to just use Ivory hand soap now and no smell...except for the rare cooking smell.

Perhaps the tubing or humidifier tub need to be cleaned.
