Reservoir Tank...dish washer safe or not?

Post by Craig H » Wed Jul 29, 2026 10:27 pm

Can I wash my Resmed 10 Air Sense reservoir in the dishwasher?

I assume the seal is not safe to do so.

My understanding is that there are two models of these reservoirs. One is dishwasher safe and the other is not. One costs more than the other, guess which one?

I don't know which one you have so...
ResMed AirCurve 10 Vauto Swift FX

Do not regret growing older. It is a privilege denied to many...

It takes less time to do a thing right than to explain why you did it wrong.

If you've ever disassembled a dishwasher you know there's a garbage disposal in the bottom of them... yuck. Just use vinegar and a brush.
