New mask, hose, and filters.
Wipe down the exterior with sanitizing wipes.
Since the air supply is positive pressure, there is no need to clean inside.
You may also replace the water tank--in case you handled it while sick.
Best wishes for your full recovery.

Re: c difficile with cpap machine
So sorry to hear you have c diff. Your question is an excellent one. As you probably know, bleach is recommended for killing c diff on surfaces. BUT I don’t know what parts of your machine and mask should and could be cleaned with bleach. Can your doctor’s office advise you?

AVOID HOME OZONE DEVICES.
They do nothing but harm.
