need some help!!

Post by Goodfella56 » Wed Oct 01, 2008 5:09 pm

I have a Quattro facemask when I use it. I sound like Darth Vader! As far as I can tell the mask Doesn't leak anywhere. Any Ideas?

Make sure EVERYTHING is snapped down tight. Run your finger around the seal, make sure it's in it's grooves.
Something is probably not seated correctly.
Do this in good light.
It should not sound like that!
Best,

Make sure you adjust the knob on the front all the way so the forehead piece isn't holding the mask away from sealing around your nose and eyes. You otherwise may have it too tight, Set it up according to the instructions that came with the mask and you will be fine. Regards and Good Luck with your therapy. jim
