Hey all. I got a brand new F20 mask and everything was fine up until I washed it for first time. I started to hear a whistle sound every time I inhale near the quick release elbow connection to the outside of the mask. I checked to make sure it wasn’t the mask seal making that sound and it’ not. This whistle sound only occurs after I reach 13 pressure and it’s really annoying it has been waking me up this past few nights. I have attached a link to the quick release elbow for those of you who don’t know what I’m talking about.

Whistle sound when inhaling
Re: Whistle sound when inhaling
I had whistleing issue, believe I pushed to hard on fitting, placing on mask, causing a slight crack the fitting enters, or could have been defective.
How I figured out, I tried a new mask with same hose/fitting no whistling sound. Examine mask plastic very closely for crack, or try different mask. Hope this helped, good luck....
