How to clean and maintain a CPAP machine?

CPAP machines require only minimal maintenance work which is very important to follow. The CPAP machine itself does not require cleaning, but only a monthly replacement of the filters. The CPAP mask should always be clean, at least once a day which will enhance comfort and performance.

Remember to wash all parts of the mask including the cushions, forehead pads and flaps. You can clean the mask with a soapy cloth or soak the mask in a bowl filled with hot water and gentle soap. Use a Q-tip in hard to reach places and dry the mask before use.

The tube stays pretty clean but it won’t hurt to run soapy water in it a couple of times a month. A humidifier can cause the tube to be contaminated so try and use distilled water and clean the chamber of the humidifier regularly.
