Mask leaks reduce therapy effectiveness and cause noise and discomfort. Common fixes include: 1) Adjust the headgear—it should be snug but not too tight. 2) Clean your mask daily, as oils reduce the seal. 3) Replace worn cushions—they lose elasticity over time. 4) Try a different mask size or style if leaks persist. 5) Check for facial hair, which can prevent a proper seal. 6) Use mask liners to improve comfort and seal. If problems continue, contact Specialty Medical Equipment for a mask fitting consultation.
