First my sympathy goes out to the wife who could not sleep and told her husband he needed to sleep in another room. It is no fun waking up in the middle of the night to hear constant noises like a machine that is in close proximity to you or someone loudly snoring in another room. My wife had the sa...

I guess someone should add that it didn't work for them. Had worst leak results ever. This is not to say the liner doesn't work it just didn't work for me. Where i like Remzzz you folks like Pad-a-Cheek. I add this comment just so that someone looking at this forum topic knows that there is a differ...

Used Pad -a-cheek and first night had worst leaks ever and second night leaks started immediately so I quit using it. Had to ramp the mask down too tight to stop leaks so went back to Remzzz. I am thinking that the microfiber type cloth in pad-a-cheek is too slick for me and when it encounters facia...

Like we all find out one mask doesn't fit all. When the Quattro FX came out I thought I would try it. Reviews seemed to be favorable. After using it 3 nights I went back to my old Mirage Quattro. Some things I experienced/found: 1. Leakage: First night was no problem and then the next 2 nights were ...

I am electrically illiterate. Never have understood it. So......I hope someone can tell me in layman's terms what I need in case the power goes out: 1. What is the name and part # of the 12v DC converter I need for my S8 2. What is the name and part # of the battery backup unit 3. Where can I buy al...

I realize there is a lot of posts on this subject BUT, bear with me as I am not technically savvy on electrical stuff and sometimes get a little cranky when I have to wade through at lot of technical posts and never get a clear answer. I would like to know what brand(s) of battery pack to buy for a ...

how does flow rate relate to the leak reading on a resmed s8?

if the flow rate is 44 liters/min (example) and I look at the readings and it says leakage .36 how do I relate the two?

My DME sent me a flyer saying that facial liners made by RemZzzx.com qualify for medical Insurance and Medicare. The HCPCS Billing Codes are A7031 and A7032.

Have not purchased them yet but this is good news for those of us who regularly use them and know the relief one gets from facial mask noise.

THINGS get dirty. With that said, scheduled cleaning of your CPAP equipment (mask, hose, humidifier tank) is necessary. That little foam filter on the back of a RESMED S8 (that I have) is not going to filter the air sufficiently so "stuff" is going to go into the humidifier tank, the hose, the mask ...

I can see why someone could read this discussion topic and come away unsure of what procedure to use to clean CPAP EQUIPMENT. Maybe a survey could help with something like below and then the results posted showing the results. CPAP EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE MASK EXAMPLE HOW OFTEN CLEANED daily,weekly,mo...

RemZzzs mask liners are great. I started using them about two years ago when I experienced the leaking mask noise. I searched the internet, found the web site, ordered my sample, had excellent results and have not been without since. I use one for two nights and get good results but after that they ...

Check it out!!! I just got a new Mirage Quattro Mask and the first night I put it on my wife noticed how loud it was. I also had problems breathing. I used it that nigh but in the morning I started to compare it to my old mask. Come to find out the number of exhaust holes in the new mask was 33 vers...

Do not see a counselor if you can help it. Here are some thoughts, There are thousands of people in CPAP therapy all over the world using some type of mask with their CPAP machine. Many of those people have been on a CPAP machine for years. New technology has improved the machines and mask design to...

Because my sleep doctor and her support staff (that I have to use because of where I live) have not shown the ability to analyze my sleep data. Twice she has made wrong decisions on my settings and now (after 3 years) I have to go back to square one and start tweeking my machine to get my readings b...

I love this forum. I have received more info than any sleep center could impart.

On the other hand, what does a sleep doctor say to this question?
