ResMed replacement part ?

Post by Woody » Wed Jan 30, 2008 5:55 pm

I broke my Ultra Mirage full face mask this morning. The part I broke is the
valve frame. Well it seems this part is no longer avaliable but a whole swivel
assimbly is at a cost of from $39 to $60. I have a spair mask so I am ok
right now but need to either fix or replace the ResMed Ultra Mirage but $39
for this tiny piece of plastic seems like hiway robery! I wonder if I might be
as well or better off buying a replacement mask. How does the Respidonics
full face mask compair to the ResMed Ultra Mirage full face mask ? Or is there a better mask. Any subjestions?

I have this mask also, if it were me- I would go to cpapauction and try to get the whole mask. You can get a whole mask there for the same price as the part you need for yours. Many people on this forum have ordered from them and will probably say the same thing. Check it out:
