Hi Guys/Gals

I have two amara view full masks and both have a high pitched whistle that comes out of the pivot elbow part where it attaches to the hose. Its on the mask not the hose. Any ideas how to get rid of this, masks are 12 months old and in good condition apart from this. I need to fix this as my SaO2 drops to 68% with 112 episodes a hour if i dont use my machine. Help please

After 12 years, have they both just started to whistle now?

Perhaps it's time to replace them.

ooooooops, apologies.

Try putting some liquid soap around the swivel and work it in...then rinse it well with hot water.

Use dental floss to work Vaseline into the joint.
Works like a charm.
Good way to use up icky lip gloss, too.
