leaking mask

Post by suaug » Sat Apr 10, 2010 12:03 pm

The seal on my mask only works for a few nights before air starts leaking on both sides of the bridge of my nose. Any ideas? If tape, what kind? Thanks!

it is advisable to provide more info on your situation:
1 what mask? what pressure? How do you know about the leakage: from data or direct experience (mouth or mask?)
2. fill in your equipment profile) so that we get more info on your situation

Are you cleaning the mask daily and washing your face before you use it?
