Other brands and model alternatives to Dreamstation autoSV DSX900T11C - ggoodrich - 08-24-2021
I have this Auto BiPAP currently and am currently uneasy about the wait for the Phillips recall since I had occasionally used a small in-line ozone cleaner for CPAP machines on Aliexpress.com
Phillips Respironics Dreamstation autoSV H/HT/C,DS, Model: DSX900T11C
What are some other brands and models that would have equivalent features?
I did register for the Phillips recall.
I'm also concerned because I checked Performance and my machine currently fails. I do not completely trust my doctor or my local equipment provider in such cases where they look out for their own interests and make decisions to reduce liabilities over what might be best for their patients and customers.

Find a ResMed AirCurve 10 ASV. This is your only real answer. Your DreamStation 900 is their SV Auto, a Central Apnea treatment machine. The ASV is ResMed's version.

Most people seem to get more comfortable and effective therapy from the Resmed Aircurve 10 ASV than the Philips BiPAP 900 series. It has a more comfortable transition from EPAP to IPAP and responds faster to events. The exception seems to be where a respiration rate or volume must be in settings, which is not normally the case with central or complex apnea, but is more prevalent with pulmonary disease. That is your best option and superior to the Philips version in my opinion.
