Re: Updating the firmware on the PR System One machines

Re: Swift FX Vs Pilairo Nasal Pillow CPAP Mask?

i do have a larger head. the tap pap looks nice but i prefer the tube pointing down, does it make a huge difference if the tube points down or not? i dont use the head clips with my swift fx i just let the tube hang down.
