[Equipment] F&P Evora tube detaching
#1
F&P Evora tube detaching
Hello, everyone.  I am a long-time CPAP user but just began to use a F&P Evora Full face mask. (With a Resmed Airsense 11.)  I like the mask and have found that, so far, it reduces my leak rate significantly.  The last couple of nights, though, I have encountered a problem for which I can find no discussion.  The problem is that the mask tube (not the CPAP tube) is detaching from the mask. Last night, it happened twice. 

I am an active sleeper, turning over several times during the night without even realizing it, most of the time.

Needless to say, having to reattach the hose to the mask in the middle of night after having been asleep is a pain.  Worse, my sleep gets interrupted.  

Any advice on how to deal with this issue would be very much appreciated.  

Off subject, sorry, but is anyone getting an extraordinarily low leak rate with the Evora?  I'm seeing 0-4 so far.

This is an excellent forum and I'm very glad to have such a resource available. 

Henry

How did this end up working out for you?

I've not had this problem with the Resmed F30, which is a very similar design. But, I am having issues with leaking vs tightness on the F30, and am thinking about switching to the Evora. I'm not sure how to keep the mask mounted in your case - maybe a bit of tape carefully applied? Probably it's coming loose due to some leverage at work - it's jamming up and popping off?

I think you might have meant to reply with something - you quoted me but your post is not showing.

Trying again. No progress with Evora. Was gonna try the F30 but perhaps not!
