Full face over the nose mask with hose connect on the top of the head??

Post by Oday03274 » Sun Aug 28, 2022 11:02 am

Does anyone know of full face over the nose mask that has the hose connect on the head like Dreamweaver and F30 but doesn't use nasal pillows? The head connection is much better for me as I roll over pretty often and it keeps me from snagging the hose with my arms but the nasal pillow type masks don't seem to line up with my nostrils and its also hard to get a good seal around the nose as well at anything above a setting of about 7 for pressure. The F20 seals pretty well and seems comfortable enough but the hose comes off the front, if there was something similar but with a top mount hose it would work much better...I think.
Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance!

The only full face masks that I know of with the hose attaching at the top of the head are the ResMed F30i and the Respironics DreamWear FFM.
I haven't seen any full face mask that actually covers the nose in the traditional way that attaches at the top of the head.

Yeah, that's the conclusion I was coming to as well, thanks for the reply Pugsy
