Hybrid Full Face Mask with nasal Pillows

I ordered this mask and headgear as it looked like something that might work well for me.... Well to be honest I never got a chance to use it.... I put it on and turned on my CPAP device and could never stop the many air flows everywhere. So I am willing to send this to someone else who either needs...

Re: AirSense 11

If you have an Airsense 10 Autoset, you're good for as long as your machine holds up. How old is it? Do you know when you'd be eligible to get a new machine with help from your insurance? Lots of people get a new machine when their insurance will allow it and then use their still-functioning old ma...

Re: Got my F&P Evora Full Face Mask !!

Okay...ruling out full beard making it hard to keep the mask from leaking. Had to ask because it does happen sometimes that after everyone comes up with ideas then someone asks about facial hair and then we find out that facial hair is involved. I totally understand... Here is an update.... last ni...

Hi, are you sure you're not overtightening the straps ? That can cause leakage as well
I start off with the straps loose and only tighten them till the air stops leaking

Re: Got my F&P Evora Full Face Mask !!

Not so good... At first all was good but within 15 -20 minutes I am assuming the pressure started to rise as I drifted off and immediately woke to the sound and feeling of air leaking out of both sides...

Re: Got my F&P Evora Full Face Mask !!

I've been using the Evora Full Face mask for almost 2 weeks. It's the most comfortable and best sealing full face mask that I've ever used even with my trimmed beard. I believe I've tried practically all of them..... Amara view, Dreamwear full face, F20,F30, F30i. It comes with the S-M size cushion...

Re: Got my F&P Evora Full Face Mask !!

Just got mine delivered today... I am assuming you set the CPAP to Full Face.

I am hoping this fixes my open mouth breathing problem....

Going to give it a test tonight...... nice to know by the replies it seems pretty good for most folks.
