For anyone interested, the way I make my Pilairo nasal pillows last a long time is by not detaching them from the frame for washing--just wash the whole assembly together. I run warm soapy water through the whole assembly every day and hang to dry. So far I am not getting any leaking, or them popping off the assembly at all. Two pairs are going on 4 months so far. Note: I alternate between 2 assemblies so that one has a day to dry.
People probably have already figured this out--I'm probably a slow learner.
This is the soap I use: http://www.amazon.com/Seventh-Generatio ... +dish+soap

Re: Make the Pilairo Nasal Pillows Last A Long Time
It is always nice when people post tips for making equipment last longer even if there are folks who already know this. I certainly wasn't of this so I greatly appreciate the tip.Loreena wrote:For anyone interested, the way I make my Pilairo nasal pillows last a long time is by not detaching them from the frame for washing--just wash the whole assembly together.
