Vent location on masks?

Post by Incognito » Sun Mar 27, 2016 10:35 pm

Is there any source of information on where the vent location is for all the different masks? The site noted for this forum has sporadic info on that, although they can be seen in some of the pictures if you blow them up. Ideally looking for a smaller full face or hybrid that has vents on the front of the unit rather than towards the top or nose. Or in the hose connection if that is possible (I know it is on some nasal only masks).

You'll have to call Cpap.com for that info... we don't have it here and all masks are different.

I would suggest going to the manufacturers' websites and downloading the user manuals for the masks in question.
Most of them have them in .pdf form for downloading.
You can usually locate the vents from pictures of the masks (like on the https://www.cpap.com website).
