Thank you for the recommendation and birthday wishes. Luckily yesterday they finally came by with a machine. They swapped my old one with a PR System One REMstar BiPAP ST, it is so quiet and has pretty nice results so far.

I have a Resmed Vpap III which is likely a used model from 2006. I'm experiencing very high pitched whining noises. Does anyone know what the average life of the equipment is? obviously it is pretty old. I checked the menu and it lists 14,779hrs and 1018 days. I'd like to get a newer model. Any sugg...

I've used the VPAP III for a few years now and had fairly good results with the Resmed Mirage SoftGel mask. Its the most comfortable that i've used thus far. Most masks are made of silicone, so using vaseline will break down or damage the mask itself.
