Discolored cpap mask still good?

Post by gravyv » Tue Apr 16, 2019 5:52 pm

I was doing some cleaning today and when I took out my extra cpap masks they were discolored. Would it be worth it to try to clean them? I get a new mask every 6 months. However, I had a few extra's that I barely used (2 different full-face, and 1 nasal) that I keep for in case my nose gets completely clogged up. I just kept them loosely in a old brown shipping box near my bedrest.

You can rejuvenate silicone cushions and seals by boiling them in baking soda and water.
