Air fit P10

Post by moonboots » Thu Dec 03, 2020 2:52 am

Can anyone recommend a nasal pillow mask , I have been using a air fit p10 for the last year or so but I find the head strap get lose over time and I lost the clips it came with soon after buying. Overall I was happy with the mask just wondering is there something similar out there ?

I'm told that if you wash the headgear in hot water it will shrink back to it's original size.

I use the N30 (another ResMed Mask) straps on my P10.

It fits perfect, and allows for adjustment. As the straps stretch out I tighten it, then when I wash it it tightens up, and I start at the loosest again.

You can buy the N30 Strap as a separate item.

This suggests that you haven't been washing them to shrink them back.

Eventually, after a lot of use, and washings) they will stop shrinking back. But knotting them should be your last resort, not your first.
