Keep Used Mask??
Keep Used Mask??
Just bought a used ResMed CPAP that came with a (used) Mirage Quattro mask. I have purchased a different mask and don't plan on using it. Should I just toss it or is there a use for it? (Keep as a back up?) If there is a use for it what's the best cleaning method? Thanks!

Re: Keep Used Mask??
You could offer it to someone here who wants to try a Quattro.
Wash the mask in warm soapy water then rinse well. (I use Ivory Pur, as it leaves no residue.)
The headgear can be hand washed or machine (I use a mesh bag and gentle cycle)

A FF mask is good if you have a cold. I have disinfected mine in a steamer but someone ruined a hose and the water tank trying to steam that. Just make sure to disinfect used masks.
