What maintenance is required on machines?Updated 2 months ago

The only care a CPAP, APAP, or BiPAP machine requires is to clean or change the air intake filters—doing this regularly protects the internal parts against accumulating dust. Fine paper filters should be changed out every 30 days or when they appear soiled. Foam washable filters should be rinsed with clear running water once a week, allowed to air dry, and reinserted. Here are some other suggested actions to care for your machine: Keep the area around your machine clean to improve the air quality delivered to you through your machine. Keep the air intake of the machine unblocked. Curtains, bedding, and papers can easily block your machine's air intake, reducing the airflow. Manufacturer warranties are voided by water damage to the machine. To avoid this, remove the chamber from the humidifier, then remove the humidifier from the machine instead of transporting the humidifier inside your machine. If a humidifier is used, empty the water from the chamber every morning. When cleaning your CPAP machine, it is advisable to steer clear of using Ozone cleaners, as they can void the manufacturer's warranty. The recommended approach is to use UV light sanitizers, such as the Liviliti Paptizer or Lumin Sanitizers, which offer effective and safe cleaning while ensuring the longevity and optimal functionality of your CPAP equipment
