Check for a hole. Check humidifier, and all hoses are properly seated and tight.

I've had some masks that never hit zero, but when your leak rate is 20 lpm, when you first put your mask on, and you don't feel anything, that leak is coming from somewhere.

Also make sure your mask settings actually matches your mask type. Your profile says pillows.
Curious- I don’t want to hijack but quick on topic question…. I have an N30 cushion. Is that considered a “pillow” in the settings or do I need to change it?
According to the ResMed user Guide, the N30 should be set to Pillows. Page 7
