liberty hybrid mask issues

daf wrote:HOw often does everyone replace the face piece around the mouth? I have been using my Liberty mask for about a month and it has started to leak in the middle of the night. It's not a huge leak usually just a small one on the side but it is really annoying at 3am. Does anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks

I've had mine since October and the seals are still in great shape, although I've broken a frame and an elbow. I fond that if I tightened the straps down too much I had a problem keeping a seal. The line between too loose and too tight is razor thin. Also, are you washing your face before using it to make your face "sticky" to the seal? I didn't for a while (I got lazy) and had trouble with leaking.

I use one of my wife's knee highs tied around my head and across the pillows, a variation of Rested Gal's ladies tights
solution. I also found that a cotton ball inserted between the nasal pillows will help stabilize them. One for the medium pillows, and about one and a half rolled together for the large pillows. Haven't had leak issues using this combination.
Hope this helps.

I have the Hybrid mask and have been using the same one for about one year. No problems yet.
