Please describe your cleaning rituals for the equipment. How often, with what?

Thanks in advance.

This whole subject comes up probably the most frequently of any of them. However, it all boils down to doing what YOU feel comfortable with because everybody's routines and tolerances cover the complete spectrum from "everyday" to "are we supposed to clean this stuff?".

As you continue reading you will find the range of cleaning goes from 'never' to 'daily'. Like somebody else said, it's up to you and what you are comfortable with. For those in a rush, unscented baby wipes are a life-saver. You can get them cheap in bulk at Costco and such.

I like my ResMed AirFit F10 FFM - reasonably low leaks for my ASV therapy. I'm currently using a PR S1 AutoSV 960P Advanced. I also keep a ResMed S9 Adapt as backup. I use a heated Hibernite hose. Still rockin' with Win 7 by using GWX to stop Win 10.
