Padacheek products for mask leaks

Post by caryrae73 » Thu Apr 03, 2014 11:16 am

My Dr on April 1st upped the pressure on my machine to 20 I believe and now my mask leaks pretty bad. I currently use the mirage Quattro full face mask (also have F&P simplus mask) I found a couple products on padacheek website I was wondering how good they work for mask leaks. I saw an anti-leak strap and mask liners, the anti leak strap looks interesting.

Welcome to the world of the 20's.....

if it weren't for Karen and Pad-A-Cheek mask liners, my therapy with the Quattro FFM would have been a failure.

I found a chinstrap I had I think I will try out. It should work like the padacheek anti leak strap. The chinstrap has a hole where the chin would go the perfect size for the hose elbow and the top part is split so that may be good for keeping it in place. If it works I may still get the padacheek strap since it looks softer.

My pressure is only 12, but I found the padacheek liner very helpful with my Mirage Quattro FFM. Helped leaks, and felt much better on my skin then bare silicone.

padacheek.com has an anti-leak strap for the Quattro mask....Also...with a pressure of 20 you may need a bilevel machine.
