Resperonics ComfortGel Blue - What is x1?

Post by Starlette » Fri Apr 08, 2011 8:14 pm

Hi everyone.

Tonight I'm going to bed with my Resperonics ComfortGel Blue. I have a question. What is the x1? x1 is branded on the mask. I know it has something to do with "resistance", but what is x1? Also, tonight I'm thinking/sleeping outside the box. If you recall, I have compatibility issues with this particular mask (irritation on the skin), tonight I'll be sleeping with "breathable" bandaid on each side of mask where skin gets irritated. I'll report tomorrow if this works *crosses fingers and toes*. Wish me luck!

Thank you. I did read it, but I still don't understand "This symbol represents the level of mask resistance compensation."

Can't articulate all that but I believe I'm understanding.

Thanks.

I can't articulate it either. That is why I just posted the link.
