Where to find chin strap that attaches to mask

Post by cpapbob2 » Fri Dec 05, 2008 11:09 am

I have seen an ad or other reference on this forum to a chin strap that attaches to the bottom straps of a nasal face mask. Can anyone tell me where to find that chin strap?

Respironics makes a simple white one strap chin strap. The strap has a cloth cradle for the chin and movable velcro squares to attach it to the straps of the mask and to continue running across the top of the head where the velcro squares are also used to attach the two ends to each other and/or a top center strap. Its working well for me.

RipVW also has a chin strap that he makes -- you can pm him or try cpapauction or ebay as he usually has them on those sites.
