Cleaning masks etc

Hubby is new to the CPAP world (first week) He has not mentioned to me how often we should clean the equipment. Is there a special cleanser that we should use, or hot soapy water? Thanks in advance Laura

To get past that he said he concentrated on his breathing a...

Thanks for the advise on BCBS, I will firm up my benefits. The sleep center my hubby went too suggested I look into cpap.com and cpaptalk for great info.

If my dh rx says biflex, is that for a CPAP or BIPAP???? tia.
