[Equipment] My Airfit P10 nose pillows slip off
#1
My Airfit P10 nose pillows slip off
Hello everyone

I have a Resmed S9 and  Airfit P10 and use an ergonomic pillow that has a 'valley' to help stabilize my head. At some point at night I toss and turn and the nose pillows get loose. Since they're no longer airtight they start blowing and whistling, waking my partner up.

I've had the cpap machine and Airfit P10 for just under a year, so they're all pretty new.

I found a thread, but haven't been able to find other information relevant to my question. (I can't link it here unfortunately because I need to have four posts according to the website error)


I was wondering if a good alternative would be the Airfit N20? Or should I go with something more involved?

thank you!

RE: My Airfit P10 nose pillows slip off
You could try a different size nasal pillow to see if that would be more stable.

I toss and turn at night and mine never moves.

Also, check the headgear straps. Even though the straps are minimal, they do tend to stretch out. Wash them in hot water and they will shrink back up.
