Best plan of attack is to do homework and read!

If you will spend a couple of hours reading pasts posts about machines, masks you will get the drift of what is going to happen. You are just starting a long journey that will last the rest of your life and there is nothing like an education.

Good Luck

Resmed Spirit, Respironics Remstar auto with c-flex.

There are others but these are the more popular auto models.
