CPAP Supplies Frequently Asked Questions

Are CPAP Supplies and Accessories the Same?

No, CPAP supplies and accessories refer to different types of products. CPAP supplies comprise products that help you maintain your CPAP equipment for improved performance of your CPAP therapy. However, CPAP accessories are add-ons to your normal CPAP equipment to further enhance your CPAP therapy experience and comfort.

How Often do CPAP Supplies Need to be Replaced?

CPAP Mask Parts: Through regular usage, CPAP mask parts require replacement a few times a year. The mask cushion requires replacement every 3 to 6 months from a build-up of oil and dirt on the skin. This can cause damage and wears out cushions over time. CPAP headgear requires replacement after 6 to 9 months from daily adjustments and normal wear-and-tear. 

CPAP Machine Parts: CPAP Machine parts require replacement when they break or weaken. 

Filters: CPAP filters are categorized into two types, reusable and disposable. Reusable filters require regular cleaning based on manufacturers’ instructions. Typically, they can be used for up to 6 months, but if any wear or tear is noticeable, consider replacing the filters immediately. On the other hand, disposable filters require replacement once a week. Additional filters that require replacement include bacteria filters which add an extra layer of filtration for healthy air intake. Bacteria filters have a lifespan of about 30 days.

CPAP Humidifier Parts: Humidifier parts require replacement as soon as there is visible build-up or discoloration. 

CPAP Hoses and Tubing: Regular washing of the tubing and hose can extend their life. With proper cleaning and maintenance, replacement is recommended every 6 to 12 months from regular usage.

Is it Necessary to Replace CPAP Supplies?

For optimal performance, CPAP products require proper maintenance and cleaning. Well-maintained and clean CPAP equipment delivers better CPAP therapy. Regular cleaning of CPAP supplies prevents harmful mold, bacteria, colds, and infections. However, with normal usage, CPAP supplies need to be replaced at regular intervals for the best and most compliant therapy. CPAP supplies are affordable to replace and can be purchased online without a prescription.
