I want to try f20 and already have n20 headgear. Wondering if they the same so all I need is the mask?

No, they are not interchangeable. Go to cpap.com and look at both masks. I started with the N20 and changed to the F20 because I was constantly awakened by air rushing out of my mouth. I liked the features of the N20 so much that I decided to order an F20 (features are very similar). I wish I could use the N20 on a regular basis, but I get a much better rest with the F20. Be very careful about sizing with the F20. Use the template that you can print to scale from cpap.com. I used a medium cushion with the N20 but needed a large with the F20. Also, when you switch to the F20, you may need to increase your maximum pressure to get the same comfort and results.

Thank you for the info.
