    Why is there air leakage around my Respironics Medical Equipment mask?
    • A
      Adrian KelleyJul 29, 2025
      Significant air leakage around the mask when using Respironics Medical Equipment could be due to improper headgear adjustment or the mask not fitting correctly. Check the headgear adjustment according to its instructions. Also, refer to your mask instructions to ensure it's properly fitted. If the problem persists, contact your home care provider for a refitting or to explore a different size mask. Make sure to rinse the mask thoroughly after cleaning to remove any residue.

      If your Respironics Medical Equipment device doesn't operate when you press the Pressure On/Off button, first check the power LED. If it's off, ensure the device is properly plugged into a working outlet. If the power LED is on, the issue lies within the device itself.

    Why is the air from my Respironics BiPAP S/T mask warmer than usual?

      If the air coming out of your Respironics Medical Equipment mask is much warmer than usual, the inlet filters might be dirty, or the unit could be operating in direct sunlight or near a heater. Clean or replace the inlet air filters. Ensure the unit is away from bedding or curtains that could block airflow, and keep it away from direct sunlight and heating equipment. If the problem continues, contact your home care provider.

      If a patient disconnect alarm occurs with your Respironics Medical Equipment, it means the tubing has become disconnected from the system. Press the RESET button to stop the alarm. Reconnect the tubing and press the Pressure On/Off button to restart the airflow. If the airflow does not restart, the device may not be operating correctly. Contact your home care provider or Respironics for directions on having the unit serviced. Please have your serial number ready when you call.
