Transcend leaking

Post by lindsayschach » Sun Dec 14, 2025 1:29 pm

I'm using a Transcend travel CPAP with my ResMed AirFit n20 mask (the same on I use at home with my ResMed machine). I'm getting a lot of leaking (34 LPM) and 14 events per hour. I don't detect a leak, so I'm not sure what is happening.

Can someone help me?

I doubt that the machine is leaking...it's the mask or hose. Could it be that the machine noise and lack of enough humidity is causing your mouth to open?

Thanks, but I doubt that's it because I tape my mouth closed.

I forgot to mention that I'm at 8000 feet. How does altitude affect CPAP performance?

Altitude range: 0-8000 feet (Automatically adjusted)
NOTE: Allow one hour for the device to either warm or cool when coming from
storage temperature to operating temperature prior to use
