Make sure it works, get the 'run' hours off it for potential buyers, give full name of machine and type, dust the outside and then leave it alone. No need to open, no need to 'sterilize' or anything else. If you're also selling masks, baby-wipe them, list sizes, etc. and leave them alone. No ozone!

There is nothing to clean on the machine..just change the filter. What are you selling?

I am using a Transcend 365 CPAP set to 7.0-20 pressure,
from his prior post here

So some sort of Transcend model.

As others have noticed it is a Transcend 365 travel CPAP. It has an integrated humidifier, the option to use it with a battery, and is among the smallest and lightest machines on the market, but still having very capable features. I have not decided yet to put it up for sale, but I'm talking to my res care people today and I believe the conclusion will be that CPAP is not going to be of any benefit to me.
